- Unused credits from previous months do not roll over
- Your credit balance is reset to your plan’s allocation upon renewal
Credit Reset Timing
Credits are reset at the start of your billing cycle, not at the beginning of the calendar month.

When changing plans, your credits are adjusted accordingly:
- Upgrading: Receive a prorated amount of additional credits immediately
- Downgrading: Your credit balance will be adjusted at the start of your next billing cycle
