Billing & Credits

The Gateway uses a transparent credit system. Every endpoint has a defined cost. Credits are deducted per successful API call.

How Credits Work

Credits are consumed when you make API calls. The cost depends on the endpoint type — more data-intensive operations cost more.

Credits are deducted only on successful responses (2xx).
Failed requests (4xx, 5xx) do not consume credits.
Credits are shared across all API keys in your organization.
Credits reset monthly when the subscription auto-renews.
Unused monthly credits do not roll over to the next billing period.
Top-up credits are one-time purchases that stack on your monthly quota and never expire.
Response format
// Every successful proxy response is wrapped in {data, _meta}:
{
  "data": {
    "id": 523990756,
    "username": "mollyy2006",
    "subscribersCount": 108
  },
  "_meta": {
    "_credits": { "used": 1, "balance": 999 },
    "_rate_limits": { "limit_minute": 60, "remaining_minute": 58 }
  }
}

Auto-renew

Subscriptions auto-renew monthly via Stripe. Cancel or update your payment method anytime through the Manage subscription button in the dashboard Billing page — it opens the Stripe Customer Portal. Unused credits do not roll over to the next billing period.

Subscribing to a Plan

Basic and Pro plans are purchased through Stripe's hosted Checkout. Free is assigned automatically and Enterprise requires contacting sales.

Click Subscribe on a plan — you are redirected to a Stripe-hosted Checkout page.
Complete payment on Stripe's secure page. No card data touches the Gateway.
On success, Stripe sends a webhook. The subscription is activated within a few seconds.
You are redirected back to the Billing page with a confirmation message.
If you cancel on the Stripe page, no charge is made and your plan stays unchanged.

Activation is webhook-driven

Credits are not available instantly after checkout. Stripe delivers the checkout.session.completed event asynchronously — activation typically takes 2–5 seconds. If your dashboard still shows the Free plan after returning, refresh the page.

After cancellation

Cancelling via the Customer Portal takes effect immediately. Once Stripe delivers the customer.subscription.deleted webhook, your organization is automatically downgraded to the Free plan (100 credits, 10 req/min). Any remaining credits from the cancelled plan are lost. To regain higher limits, subscribe to a new plan.

Credit Top-ups

Top-ups are one-time credit purchases that supplement your monthly quota. Unlike monthly credits, top-up credits never expire and carry over indefinitely.

Top-up credits stack on top of your existing monthly balance.
They are consumed first before monthly quota credits.
Top-up credits never expire — they persist across billing cycles.
Multiple top-ups can be purchased at any time.
Available on Basic, Pro, and Enterprise plans only. Not available on Free.

How to purchase

Go to the Billing page in the dashboard.
Under "Credit top-ups", select a package and click Buy credits.
Complete the one-time payment on Stripe's hosted Checkout page.
Credits are added to your account within a few seconds via webhook.

Paid plan required

Credit top-ups require an active Basic, Pro, or Enterprise subscription. Free plan users must upgrade before purchasing top-ups.

Activation is webhook-driven

Top-up credits are not available instantly after checkout. Stripe delivers the checkout.session.completed event asynchronously — credits are typically added within 2–5 seconds. You will receive an in-app notification once the credits have been applied.

Endpoint Credit Costs

Each endpoint type has a fixed credit cost. Higher-cost endpoints retrieve more data or perform more complex operations.

Billing Errors

402Insufficient Credits

Returned when your credit balance is lower than the endpoint's cost. Top up credits or upgrade your plan.

JSON
HTTP 402 Payment Required

{
  "error": "Not enough credits to complete this request.",
  "code": "INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS"
}

Credits not reserved

Credits are checked and deducted atomically. If a request fails mid-flight (e.g. OnlyFans returns an error), no credits are deducted.
