A credit is a unit of usage in Vizcom. When you use a credit-powered feature, a set number of credits is deducted from your balance. Different features have different credit costs depending on their complexity — the cost is always shown before you confirm an action. ## Who are Credits for? Any Starter, Pro, or Education user who wants to understand how credits work, what features use them, and what to do when their balance runs low. ### Your monthly balance Every plan includes a monthly credits balance that resets at the start of each billing cycle. This is your base allocation; it does not roll over. | Plan | Credits Included per month | Ability to purchase Add-ons? | | ---------- | -------------------------- | ---------------------------- | | Starter | 800 | Upgrade to Pro | | Pro | 20,000 | Yes, purchase anytime | | Enterprise | Custom | Contact Sales | | Education | 15,000 | Yes, purchase anytime | ### **For Education Users:** **Single-user · 1 seat** Your account works just like a Pro account. you own it, manage it, and control your credits directly. There are no shared pools or org-level roles. **Credits**: Your credits belong to you personally and are not shared with anyone else. **Buying credits**: You can purchase credits anytime, since you're the account owner. > **When to use this:** You're an individual student or educator who wants Edu pricing without managing a team. **Multi-user · 2+ seats** A shared account for teams, classrooms, or departments. An admin manages billing and credits, while editors (typically students) use the shared balance. **Credits**: All seats draw from a single shared pool managed by the admin. **Buying credits**: Only admins can purchase credits. Editors can use them but cannot buy more. > **When to use this:** You're setting up an account for a class or group where one person manages billing and others just need access. ## Base Credits vs Add-On Credits ***For Pro & Edu users only***, there are two types of credits on your account * **Base Credits:** included in your monthly plan. Reset at the start of every billing cycle. Unused base credits do not carry over. * **Add-on credits:** purchased separately for extra capacity. Unused add-on credits roll over month to month and do not expire. **How credits are drawn down:** Base credits are used first. After purchasing add-on credits, they will kick in once your base plan balance reaches zero. ## What features use Credits? | Generate + Iterate
