# usage.threshold.exceeded.money

<Tip>
  Make sure to read the [Webhooks Overview](/api-reference/webhooks/overview) for important
  information about signature verification.
</Tip>

## Purpose

The `usage.threshold.exceeded.money` webhook is triggered when what a customer owes for a usage brick reaches a set amount in the current billing period, e.g. \$100 of usage this month.

Configure the amounts on the brick under **Usage alerts**. See [Usage Alerts](/catalog/usage-alerts) for setup.

## When it fires

* The amount is the brick's usage charge for the current billing period.
* It fires once per threshold in each billing period. If one usage record crosses several thresholds, one event is sent for each threshold crossed.
* Usage pools do not send it. Use [`usage.threshold.exceeded.precommitment`](/api-reference/webhooks/usage/threshold-exceeded-precommitment) for pools.

<Note>
  Only usage in the current billing period is checked. Backfilling usage for an earlier period does
  not send this webhook.
</Note>

## Payload format

Your configured endpoint will receive a [Usage Threshold](/api-reference/webhooks/usage/payload) payload with `alerting_target_type` set to `money`.

<Warning>
  `alert_threshold_value` and `actual_usage_value` are in the smallest unit of the order's currency,
  e.g. cents for USD. `"10000.00"` is \$100.00.
</Warning>
