With pay-as-you-go, users will receive a monthly bill and use OORT credits to pay for services. Any outstanding balance will be charged to the credit card on record. The credits will be automatically deducted from the user's account to pay for their monthly bills once the invoice is issued, providing a hassle-free payment process.</td><td><a href="/pages/QUuZgxXxBlJxRXFB7y7g">/pages/QUuZgxXxBlJxRXFB7y7g</a></td></tr></tbody></table>
