Google Cloud Vision API limit and usage

In my project I need to use the Google Vision API in order to know if an image uploaded by the user is rated as adult content or not.

In their documentation page we have a pricing table Google Vision API Pricing in which we can see there is a free plan in which you have some limits. In order to start using this I needed to join the free trial and set a billing account.

My questions are the following:

  1. When the limits are reached, am I going to be billed by Google? Or the service will be unavailable until I accept to be billed for that?
  2. As I have joined to a free trial, is this API usage limited to the trial period (60 days), or is it free (limited) even when the trial period has ended?

When you reach the limit the service stop working. Google doesn't charge you, as DalmTo said

For Cloud Vision API, after the free trial, the features to analyze the images are free with a cap of 1000 units/months. Google Cloud Vision API Pricing
