Credits

You can view your credit usage and purchase more credits to use with Zide AI features. Credits are consumed when you use Zide Assist and sparkle buttons. Every plan includes Zide Assist and a monthly credit allocation: the Free plan and a lapsed perpetual license each include a free, limited-time grant of credits on Zide Economy, Zide Solo includes a larger monthly allocation, and the Assist tiers include progressively more. This promotional grant on the free plans may change over time.

View credit details

To view your credit details, including credit total and credit usage, click Subscription > Credits. The Credit Details dialog displays your total credit balance and the last 10 uses of credits.

Your credit balance includes your monthly allocation of credits and your bulk credits. Zide automatically draws from your monthly allocation of credits first.

Buy credits

Every plan includes a monthly credit allocation tied to your account, and monthly credits are refreshed automatically at the start of each billing cycle. Monthly credits do not roll over: any unused monthly credits are cleared when the allocation refreshes. Bulk credits, which you buy in packs, are separate and persist until used.

Bulk credit packs can be purchased on Zide Solo and the Assist tiers. The Free plan and a lapsed perpetual license cannot buy packs; when their credits run low, the option is to upgrade or resubscribe rather than to buy a pack.

To purchase additional credits, complete the following steps.

1. Click Subscription > Buy Credits.
2. In the Buy Credits dialog, select the amount of credits to purchase.
3. Click Buy Credits. A Polar checkout will open in your browser.
4. Complete the purchase to add credits to your account.
