Pay as you go billing

I am on the free plan running a task that doesn't need many resources, however more than the $5 a month that are free. As I understood I would be paying as I go for any additional usage. However my task has now just stopped after the $5 was reached. How do I set it to pay as I go? The $35 plan would be way too much for me, as I need $10 max
