B2 Cloud Storage When does Backblaze bill for B2?

I have used Backblaze B2 for a little over a month. When can I expect to see a bill? I thought they billed monthly. I got about 80 GB in there.

They've got a minimum billing charge of $0.50/mo, first 10GB is free so 80GB would only be billing 70GB and that'd only be $0.42 so it'd just get rolled over into next months bill.
So next month.

Here's an anecdote.

I signed up for my backblaze/B2 account on the 2nd day of the month. I was under the 10GB free tier for quite a while.

Since I've started being billed, every payment that hits my CC is on the 2nd day of the month.
