I know $10 seems trivial but I like maintaining my budget down to the cent, and not knowing how much I'm going to be billed in three weeks bothers me.
From how I interpret the billing system, no-one will pay into the beta. Since the payment arrangements don't allow SE to change the sum due without an agreement from us I would assume you pay up to the last full month before beta, and the time remaining from your last payment until beta start date is free.

ie if beta starts on 15th Oct and your last payment covers up to 16th Sep you won't pay for the remaining 29 days.

I could be entirely wrong, however.
