Understanding Blog Credits and Image Credits

How Credits Work

Blog Credits and Image Credits are usage-based resources that power your content generation on Opinly. Unlike subscription fees that cover access to the platform, Credits are consumed when you perform specific actions:

• Blog Credits are used each time you generate a blog post
• Image Credits are used each time you generate an image

Credits are consumed immediately when you use a feature—they're not tied to time periods or subscription cycles. Think of them like units of work: once you've used a Credit to generate content, that Credit has been consumed.

Why Credits Are Non-Refundable

Credits are consumed the moment you use them to generate content. This means:

1. Immediate consumption: As soon as you generate a blog post or image, the required Credits are deducted from your account
2. Resource usage: Each Credit represents computational resources and AI processing that has already been used
3. No reversal: Once Credits are consumed, they cannot be restored, even if you later delete the generated content or cancel your subscription

This policy ensures we can maintain fair pricing and continue providing reliable content generation services to all customers.

What Happens When You Cancel

If you cancel your subscription:

• Future billing stops: You won't be charged for upcoming subscription renewals or additional Credits
• Used Credits remain consumed: Any Credits you've already used cannot be refunded or restored
• Unused Credits: Any unused Credits in your account remain available until they expire (if applicable) or are used

Cancellation prevents future charges but doesn't reverse past usage. This is similar to how other usage-based services work—once you've used a resource, you've consumed it.

Managing Your Credits

To make the most of your Credits:

• Review your usage in the billing dashboard to track Credit consumption
• Plan your content generation to align with your Credit allocation
• Monitor your remaining Credits before starting large batch operations
