Polar Billing Setup

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: business-ops  ·  Last updated:
Set up, integrate, and DEBUG Polar (polar.sh) usage-based / metered billing the right way — events ingestion, meters, metered prices, checkout, webhooks, and free-credit reconciliation. Use this whenever the user mentions Polar billing, usage-based or metered billing, "ingest events to Polar", a Polar meter, a metered price, or — critically — when billing looks broken: "Polar isn't charging", "my invoice is $0", "usage events aren't billing", "consumed_units is 0", "metering not working", or "why are customers not being charged". This skill encodes the silent-failure traps that make Polar metering quietly bill $0, and ships a diagnostic script that tells you exactly where the chain is broken. Prefer it over guessing whenever Polar metered billing is involved, even if the user doesn't name the specific failure.

From the source SKILL.md

Polar metered billing is a chain, and any single broken link silently bills $0 with no error. Events still return inserted: 1, the dashboard still shows the subscription as active, orders still get created — they're just all $0. The failure is invisible unless you check the one number that matters: the meter's consumed_units.

What this skill does

Polar Billing Setup is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the business-ops sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/polar-billing-setup/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
