How credits work

2 min readunderstanding-credits

What counts as a credit, how to check your balance, and when to upgrade.

The rule

1 credit = 1 verified lead saved to your workspace.

You only pay for leads that land — leads dropped for missing email, duplicate, or off-target don't cost anything. If you ask for 50 leads and we find 30, you pay for 30.

Checking your balance

Your remaining credits show up:

In the topbar next to the New Search button
On the dashboard
On the New Search form, next to the slider

Budget-aware slider

Every search form caps the "leads requested" slider at the minimum of:

Your plan's per-job limit
Your remaining credit balance

So you can never accidentally start a job that exceeds your credits.

When to upgrade

Watch for the "credits low" notification in the bell icon — it fires when you have less than 20% of your monthly allowance left. Upgrade at Settings → Billing for seamless continuity.
