# Slot Teams

Teams are the billing entity in Slot.
They own credits used to pay for deployments, paymasters, RPC requests, and other services.

## Credit System

- Prepaid credits, deducted automatically
- 1 CREDIT = $0.01 USD
- Daily billing cycle (minimum 1-day charge)
- Fund via credit card or cryptocurrency

## Creating a Team

```sh
slot teams <team-name> create --email <email> [--address "address"] [--tax-id "id"]
```

A team is also auto-created when you create a deployment with a new project name.

## Funding

```sh
slot auth fund
```

Opens a browser interface to select a team and add credits.

## Troubleshooting

### Insufficient credits

```sh
# Check balance
slot teams <team-name> info

# Fund the team
slot auth fund

# Retry your operation
```

### Service not starting

- Verify team has credits: `slot teams <team-name> info`
- Ensure service was created with `--team <team-name>`
- Check that you're a member of the team
