I'm afraid there's not a quick or cheap solution. Unfortunately you can only do a scheduled refresh 8 times a day on shared capacity (Power BI Pro). With Power BI Premium you can do it up to 48 times a day. 

You can however always schedule an on demand refresh, but for that you have to push a button, so that may or may not work in your case. On-demand refreshes do not count towards the daily limitation.

Please have a look at the documentation for more info: Configure Scheduled Refresh.
