A credit is what you spend when someone exports a finished design. One credit is used when a person using your design generator exports a graphic. Opening or filling in a generator costs nothing; only the export counts, and exporting the same graphic again within the year is not charged twice.
Other actions draw on the same credit allowance at a smaller rate:
- An image rendered through the API in an automation campaign costs 0.1 credit.
- A video render is metered by its duration, resolution, and frame rate; a 10-second 2K clip costs about 0.1 credit.
Exports that never consume credits:
- Exports by logged-in team members in a private campaign.
- Exports made with the password of a team campaign.
- Watermarked exports while your usage is above the allowance.
Your allowance is a yearly amount that resets on your renewal date (Pro) or the anniversary of your signup (Free); unused credits do not carry over. You can see your usage any time under Settings → Billing, and you get a notification at 80 % of your allowance and when you cross it. Your plan's allowance, the price of additional credits, and what happens above the allowance are on the pricing page.
