  • If you select Set a maximum budget, enter a value in Maximum Budget Amount field. The budget is measured in $USD. This will also automatically create a threshold which will invoke the clean-up process on the associated account once the entered budget is matched.

  • When you set a maximum budget (1) a threshold is automatically created for you (2). This threshold will wipe (3) the account once that budget is reached.
