How credits work

What credits are, what spends them, and what stays free.

BWritten by the Brandmundo teamUpdated June 5, 2026

Credits are Brandmundo's currency for AI image generation. Your balance lives in two pots that behave differently — knowing the difference saves you money.

The two pots

  • Monthly credits — included with a paid plan. They reset to your plan's allowance at each renewal; unused monthly credits don't carry over.
  • Top-up credits — bought as one-time packs (plus your 30-credit welcome bonus at signup). They never expire.

When you spend credits, monthly credits are always used first — the use-it-or-lose-it pot drains before the permanent one, automatically. You never have to manage which pot a render comes from.

What costs credits

  • AI image generation: 5 credits per render, including regenerations.
  • Everything else: free. Idea generation, caption and hashtag rewrites, scheduling, uploads — none of it touches your balance.

Credit packs

Need more than your plan includes? Packs are one-time purchases from Settings → Billing: 100 credits for $10, 300 for $25, 1,000 for $75, or 3,000 for $199 (EUR pricing in Europe). Pack credits go into the top-up pot and stick around until you use them.

Running low mid-month?

Buy a pack rather than upgrading a tier you don't otherwise need — pack credits never expire, so there's no waste if your usage spike was a one-off.
