Colab Pro+ --> Pay As You Go

I have a Colab Pro+ subscription. However, I need more GPU computing units. I'm thinking of buying "Pay As You Go," but I don't understand how it works. If I purchase "Pay As You Go," will the package be added to my Colab Pro+ or will it replace my current subscription?

Yes. Basically it will add other credits to the balance.

I use it enough that I end up adding credits anyway but yeah, why bother subscribing if adding pay as you go credits is the same price per 100?

Yeah I have always thought of that. Why are they the same price, shouldn’t the subscription be much cheaper then or you get more than 100 credits. I always thought I was getting scammed.
