Purchasing Credits

If you run out of credits before your subscription renews, you can purchase additional credit packs as one-time top-ups. This keeps your content production moving without needing to upgrade your entire plan.

How Credit Packs Work

Credit packs are one-time purchases that add credits to your account balance on top of your subscription allowance. They are processed through Stripe, and the credits are available immediately after purchase.

How to Buy Credit Packs

1. Open the Credits section — Navigate to Credits from your workspace sidebar.
2. Browse available packs — View the credit pack options and their prices. Larger packs typically offer better value per credit.
3. Select a pack — Choose the size that fits your needs.
4. Complete payment — You are redirected to a Stripe checkout page to finalize the purchase.
5. Credits are added — Once payment is confirmed, the credits appear in your balance immediately.

Available Pack Sizes

Qamera AI offers several credit pack sizes to accommodate different needs. Smaller packs work well for occasional top-ups, while larger packs suit teams with high-volume production needs. The exact sizes and pricing are displayed on the Credits page in your workspace.

Viewing Your Credit Balance and Usage History

Keep track of your spending from the Credits section:

• Current balance — Your total available credits, combining subscription allowance and any purchased packs.
• Usage history — A detailed log of every generation and its credit cost, so you can see exactly where your credits went.
• Purchase history — A record of all credit pack purchases and subscription renewals.

Credit Expiration

Credits from your subscription allowance that are not used within the billing cycle do not roll over — they reset when your allowance renews. However, credits purchased through credit packs may have different expiration terms. Check the credit pack details on the purchase page for specific expiration information.

Tips for Managing Credits

• Monitor usage regularly — Check your balance before starting large generation batches to avoid interruptions mid-session.
• Buy in bulk for campaigns — If you have a big product launch or seasonal campaign, purchase a larger credit pack in advance rather than buying multiple small packs.
• Review usage patterns — Use the usage history to identify which content types consume the most credits, and plan your purchases accordingly.
• Consider upgrading — If you find yourself buying credit packs every month, upgrading to a higher-tier subscription plan may be more cost-effective in the long run.
