Implementing Stripe metered billing, avoid excess calls and rollovers?

• subscription-use-cases

  9 734 8.5 JavaScript

  Create subscriptions with fixed prices or usage based billing.

  

I want to build a product with metered billing, very similar to the example project here: https://github.com/stripe-samples/subscription-use-cases/tree/master/usage-based-subscriptions

• node-rate-limiter

  1 1,481 2.7 TypeScript

  A generic rate limiter for node.js. Useful for API clients, web crawling, or other tasks that need to be throttled

1) If I run a CRON job every 24 hours to get the usage for all my users and report their usage to Stripe. Say I have 100,000 users, I'd definitely trip the 100/sec API rate limit still. Would I have to just wrap that reporting code inside something like node-rate-limiter and throttle those API calls to 100/sec and still take 1,000 seconds to complete my CRON job? Or is there better practice ways of handling this?
