# Amadora AI Credits

> How credits work, what they cost, and how to manage your balance.

As of February 13, 2026, Amadora AI has moved to a flexible **Credit System**. This allows you to scale your optimization efforts on demand, without being locked into a higher subscription tier just to run a few extra reports.

This guide explains how credits are allocated, how they are consumed, and how to manage your balance.

### 1. Your Credit Balance

You can view your real-time balance by navigating to the **Credits** tab in your dashboard sidebar. Your total balance is made up of two types of credits:

* **Plan Credits:** These are the credits included with your monthly subscription (e.g., *300 credits/month*). These renew automatically on your billing date.
* **Top-Up Credits:** These are additional credits you purchase separately. They are added to your balance immediately and are used when you exceed your monthly allowance.

### 2. Credit Usage & Costs

Credits are the currency used to perform high-value actions within the platform.

* **Optimization Plans:** Creating a comprehensive Optimization Plan consumes **100 Credits** per plan.
  * *Includes:* Deep-dive analysis, Ideal Model generation, and the full "Actions" roadmap.

> **Note:** Basic tracking and monitoring of your keywords do not consume credits; credits are only deducted when you generate new strategic assets.

### 3. Adding More Credits

If you run out of credits mid-month, you can instantly top up your balance without upgrading your entire subscription.

1. Go to the **Credits** page.
2. Click the **+ Add credits** button in the top right.
3. Select a one-time package:
   * **200 Credits:** \$49
   * **500 Credits:** \$99 (*Best Value for small teams*)
   * **1,000 Credits:** \$189 (*Best Value for agencies*)

The payment is processed immediately, and credits are available for use instantly.

### 4. Auto Top-Up

To ensure your workflows are never interrupted—especially if you have scheduled optimizations running—you can enable **Auto Top-Up**.

* **How it works:** When your balance falls below a safe threshold, the system will automatically purchase your preferred credit package.
* **Enable/Disable:** You can toggle this setting **On** or **Off** directly from the main Credits dashboard or within the "Add credits" modal.

### 5. Transaction History

For full transparency, the **Transaction History** table at the bottom of the Credits page provides a detailed audit log of every credit movement.

* **Usage:** Shows exactly which project or plan consumed credits (e.g., *"-100 Credits: Optimization Plan created"*).
* **Renewals:** Shows when your monthly plan credits were added (e.g., *"+300 Credits: Plan renewed"*).
* **Purchases:** Shows manual or automatic top-ups.
