Credits

Credits are consumed by lead searches: 1 credit per delivered lead, enriched and scored, with no separate charge for either. Use the Credits API to check your available balance and audit transaction history before running automated workflows.

Credits reset monthly on your billing anniversary. Bonus credits (from credit packs or support adjustments) carry forward and are spent first.

Get Balance

GET/api/v1/credits/balanceauth

Retrieve the current credit balance for your organisation.

{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "monthlyCredits": 100,
    "bonusCredits": 25,
    "usedCredits": 43,
    "availableCredits": 82,
    "resetDay": 1,
    "lastResetAt": "2026-05-01T00:00:00.000Z"
  }
}

availableCredits = monthlyCredits + bonusCredits − usedCredits. Always check this before triggering large searches or enrichment jobs.

Integrate a credit check at the start of your automation pipeline — fetch balance, verify availableCredits >= estimatedCost, then proceed. This prevents partial jobs from running when credits run out mid-way.
