Okra Africa Finops

HISTORICAL FinOps view of Okra spend. Okra's API was billed on a consumption basis - pay-as-you-go per successful API call and/or per connected bank account - settled from a prepaid billing wallet, above a free production allowance and free unlimited sandbox usage. Cost drivers were the number of linked accounts (connections) and the volume of successful data/payment calls across products (Auth, Accounts, Balance, Transactions, Identity, Income, KYC, Payments). Okra ceased operations in May 2025; there is no active invoice to manage. This record is retained for historical FinOps modeling only.
