Akismet: Are We Doing Right?

I remember setting up Akismet for my first website and it had a slider we used to move the donation amount to $0, as per instructions. This has recently changed and they are making it confusing in how you go about setting up a free account now.
Recently, I am getting messages from Akismet that states that my Akismet Personal subscription is not appropriate for its current usage. They ask that I upgrade my supscription to a higher level in order to keep using it.
I guess I'm starting to wonder if we are suppose to be paying for this service from the start, as our websites may begin as personal, but they don't stay that way when we add affiliate links with the idea of promoting products to sale.
If anyone can enlighten me, I would appreciate it! I just want to make sure I am on the up and up here and telling others correctly, as well.
