Credits
What credits pay for, how your balance is spent, and how to get more.
Credits pay for AI replies. Each reply, regenerate, and continue costs credits, and the price depends on the model. You can see each model's cost in the model menu in your chat.
Your balance
Your balance is shown on the Credits page. You can open it from Credits in Settings, under Credit log. Credits are kept in separate balances, and the ones that expire soonest are spent first.
- Today's free credits: 50 a day, reset at midnight UTC. They don't carry over to the next day.
- Membership: 150 a day while you're a member. Unused membership credits bank up to 525.
- Earned and bought: these never expire.
Recent activity lists where your credits came from and what you spent them on. Today's free credits aren't listed, because they reset daily instead of being saved.
Getting more credits
Credit packs are one-time purchases, with no subscription. Purchased credits never expire.
Membership (AiRP Wired) gives you:
- 200 daily credits in total: 150 from Wired plus your 50 free credits
- 500 permanent welcome credits when you first join
- unused membership credits that bank up to 525
- a different model discount each month
You can pay monthly or yearly, and cancel anytime. Your membership lasts through the paid period, and you keep credits you've already been given.
