Document Credits
Credit packs allow you to purchase additional documents beyond your monthly subscription quota. Credits never expire and are used after your monthly quota is exhausted.
Available Credit Packs
| Pack | Documents | Price | Per Document |
|---|---|---|---|
| Micro | 100 | $10 | $0.10 |
| Small | 500 | $40 | $0.08 |
| Medium | 1,000 | $70 | $0.07 |
| Large | 2,500 | $150 | $0.06 |
How Credits Work
- Your monthly subscription quota is used first
- When monthly quota is exhausted, purchased credits are consumed
- Credits never expire - use them whenever you need
- Credits always produce clean (non-watermarked) documents
Credit packs are intentionally priced higher per-document than subscription plans. For regular high-volume usage, upgrading your subscription is more cost-effective.
What Counts as a Document?
- 1 PDF generation = 1 document
- 1 Excel generation = 1 document
- Failed generations don't consume quota/credits
- Preview mode doesn't consume quota/credits
