Anthropic renames "extra usage" to usage credits
By Steven Van ·
The new term reflects a broader role, including powering features like Fast Mode, not just spend past a plan limit.
Anthropic has renamed "extra usage" to usage credits for Claude. The old name only made sense for paying past a plan limit; the new name covers a broader role, including powering features like Fast Mode directly, which the previous label didn't capture. Details in the announcement.
