What Credits Are
Credits are Pricefic's usage unit. Most actions that create value in the app, such as saving an invoice, quotation, receipt, or other document, downloading a file, sending an email, or recording an accounting entry, cost a small number of credits.
You buy credits when you need them. Credits are added to your account and stay available until you use them.
Buying Credits
You can buy credits from the pricing page. The pricing page shows the current credit options and what each one includes.
If you run low, you can buy more credits at any time.
Viewing Your Credit Usage
To see how your credits have been used:
- Open Settings.
- Select Credits History.
The credit history shows every purchase, bonus, adjustment, and usage transaction. For each entry, you can see the date, action type, description, number of credits added or used, and your balance after the transaction.
Credits added to your account appear with a plus sign. Credits used for an action appear as a negative number. Use the description and action type to identify what the credits were used for.
When Credits Are Used
Credits are used for actions that create value inside the app, such as:
- Creating or saving invoices, quotations, receipts, other documents, and records
- Downloading files
- Sending documents by email
- Recording accounting entries
- Creating employees and departments
- Adding employee skills, work history, and documents
- Requesting time off
- Submitting attendance
Before you confirm an action, Pricefic shows how many credits it will cost.
How Credit Costs Appear on Buttons
When a button or menu action uses credits, Pricefic shows a small number beside the button label. That number is the total credit cost for the action.
If the action includes more than one credit-using item, such as saving a document while also creating a customer, inventory item, saved note, payment method, signature, tax, or supporting material, the number shows the combined cost.
Click the number beside the button to open the credit confirmation window without running the action. When a breakdown is available, Pricefic shows each cost line so you can see what is included in the total.
What Happens Before You Confirm
When an action requires credits, you will see a confirmation modal with:
- The total credit cost
- A cost breakdown when available
- Your remaining balance after the action
This helps you decide whether to continue before any credits are used.
Avoiding Extra Credit Costs
Some actions can include extra credit costs when Pricefic needs to create related records while completing the action. For example, saving a document may also create a new customer, inventory item, saved note, payment method, signature, tax, or supporting material.
To avoid unnecessary costs, reuse existing records when they already exist. For example, before typing a new document line item from scratch, check whether the inventory item is already saved and select it when possible. This keeps your records cleaner and can reduce the credits used when saving the document.
What Happens If You Do Not Have Enough Credits
If your balance is too low, Pricefic shows an Insufficient credits message instead of letting the action continue.
You can then buy more credits and try again.
Do Credits Expire
Credits you buy do not expire and stay on your account until you use them.
