Customer credit system for prepayments and Deferred Revenue

A credit system is implemented for prepayments, where 1 credit = $1 USD.

This will make buying credit similar to buying reserved capacity for US buyers i.e. paying prepayments as credits. 

Price/usage is metered in USD or relevant currenies, but customers can pay in their local currency at the spot rate at time of billing, or they can choose to pay in USD.

For prepayments, convert the committed amount e.g., €1M or $1M) to load 1 Milion credits.

Sales conversations can happen almost entirely local currency, but the underlying pricing remains in USD for simplicity and operational consistency.

These credits are stored in third-party systems like Orb or Metronome.
