Credits are the universal currency of the Profy platform. Whether you’re chatting with an Expert, generating images, or executing code — all AI calls are metered in credits.

​
Where Credits Come From

You can obtain credits through the following channels:

Signup Bonus

New users receive initial credits upon registration to explore various Experts on the platform

Subscription Plans

Subscribe to a paid plan to receive a monthly or yearly credit allowance

Top-up Packs

Purchase credits on the “Recharge” page for immediate use

Referral Rewards

Invite new users to register — both parties receive credit rewards

Gift Cards

Redeem platform-issued gift card codes for instant credit top-up

Team Pool

Team plan users share an organization credit pool, managed and recharged by administrators
Specific credit amounts for each channel are displayed in the product in real time. The platform periodically adjusts promotional activities and bonus amounts.

​
How Credits Are Spent

Every AI call consumes credits. The amount depends on the model used and the billing unit:

​
Billing Units

Different AI models have different rates. Generally, more powerful models consume more credits. You can switch models in conversation settings to control credit consumption.

​
Consumption Examples

The following are intuitive references — actual consumption is shown in the product in real time:
  • A typical text conversation: Tens to hundreds of credits (depending on conversation length and model choice)
  • Generating an image: Hundreds to thousands of credits (depending on the selected image model)
  • Generating a video: Billed by video duration
  • Text-to-speech: Billed by text character count

​
Credit Consumption Priority

When you have credits from multiple sources, the platform consumes them in a specific priority order. The core rule is: consume expiring credits first, then non-expiring ones.
The platform divides your credits into multiple buckets, consumed in this order:
  1. Daily bonus credits (consumed first)
  2. Signup bonus credits
  3. Plan bonus credits
  4. Referral reward credits
  5. Top-up bonus credits
  6. Purchased credits (consumed last)
This order ensures that bonus credits with expiration dates are used first, preserving the credits you paid for as long as possible.

​
Credit Expiration

Bonus credits have expiration dates and will automatically expire if unused. Purchased credits never expire.
Expiration rules vary by source:
You can check the remaining balance and expiration dates for each credit type on your account’s credits page.

​
Team Credits

Team plan users share an organization credit pool:
  • When the team is activated, credits are automatically injected into the organization pool
  • All members’ AI consumption is deducted from the same pool
  • Administrators can view team usage reports to understand each member’s consumption
  • Administrators can purchase top-up packs for the team, with credits going directly into the organization pool
Team members’ personal credits are completely isolated — leaving the team does not affect personal credits.
Team credit pool recharges are restricted to administrators. Regular members will receive a prompt when attempting to recharge.

​
Checking Your Credit Balance

You can check your current credits in the following places:
  • Avatar menu: Click your avatar in the top-right corner to see a balance overview
  • Credits page: View detailed credit breakdowns and consumption records in your account settings
The credit details show the source of each charge — which Expert was used, how many tokens were consumed, and how many credits were spent.
