In short
Social Relay meters usage with prepaid tokens on a platform wallet. Rate card version 2026-08-04 charges discrete actions such as posts.publish_leg (10 tokens per network) and connection.linked (5 tokens). Packs (Sip, Mug, Pot, Thermos) top up the wallet when checkout is live; early access may use operator credits.
Model
One wallet per platform covers all profiles and networks. Debits appear on the ledger. Reserved balance may show 0 until async hold/release is productized—available is what you can spend today.
