This falls under having the right API strategy that most vendors in this area seem to miss. Before I answer, can you elaborate a bit on the scenario (maybe with an example) where you want to move from fee->free? Henry thanks for the question.

Surely many companies are monetizing their APIs and so, e-commerce is one of the business drivers for exposing APIs.
