How Credits Work
Credits are the currency you use to create content in Samsa. Every generation, edit, and enhancement uses credits from your monthly allocation.
Your Monthly Credits
Your subscription includes a set number of credits that refresh each billing cycle:
Plan | Monthly Credits |
|---|---|
Starter | 500 credits |
Basic | 1,250 credits |
Standard | 2,000 credits |
Enterprise | Custom |
