# Billing and credits

> How plans and credits work, how to check usage, top up, and change or cancel your plan.

Adrio runs on credits. Your plan includes a monthly amount, and each generation uses some. Billing belongs to the workspace, so every brand in it shares the same credits. Current plans and prices are on the [pricing page](https://adrio.ai/pricing).

## Where to find it

Open **Settings** → **Billing**.

## What uses credits

| Action | Cost |
|---|---|
| A static ad | Up to 10 credits, less on cheaper models |
| A video ad | Video credits, based on length and quality. Premium quality costs about 3 times as much as Regular. |
| Animating a static ad | Video credits |

Adrio always shows the cost before it spends: in the creative wizard, in Spark's plan card and in the video cost breakdown. If you don't have enough credits, it tells you before starting.

## Check your usage

The **Credits** card shows how many you've **Used**, how many are **Remaining** and when they reset. **Reserved** credits are held for ads that are still generating. They become usage when the ad finishes, or are released if it fails. The **Usage** chart shows the last 7, 14 or 30 days.

## Free plan

On the free plan, your first batch is fixed at 4 ads. If you start a batch without an active plan, Adrio saves your work and starts generating automatically after checkout.

## Buy more credits

If top-ups are available for your workspace, click **Buy credits**, choose an amount and click **Purchase**. The minimum is $5.

Turn on **Auto Top-up** to recharge automatically when your balance drops below a threshold you choose.

## Change, cancel or update payment

- **Change plan** or **Upgrade** opens the plan picker.
- **Update payment method** changes your card.
- **Cancel subscription** ends your plan at the end of the billing period. You keep access until then.
- Have a code? Click **Have a referral or promo code?**, enter it and click **Apply Code**.

Invoices are listed at the bottom of the page.
