How Credits Work

Everything you need to know about free scans, paid credits, and expiration.

1. Free daily scans

• Every signed-in account receives 1 free scan per day.
• The counter resets each day at 00:00 UTC.
• Unused free scans do not roll over to the next day.
• You don't need to buy anything to use the Service — the free tier is permanent.

2. How a scan consumes a credit

The Service is built around a simple rule: you only pay for results that worked.

• A successful identification consumes exactly 1 unit.
• A failed scan (no match, audio too short, network or server error) consumes 0 units.
• Re-trying the same recording counts as a new scan if it succeeds.

3. Free scans are used first

On every successful identification, the system always draws from your free daily allowance first, then purchased credits.

4. Buying credit packs

• Credits are sold in one-off packs (currently 50 or 200 credits) via Gumroad.
• There are no subscriptions and nothing to cancel.
• After checkout, your balance is updated automatically — usually within seconds.
• Multiple packs stack. Each carries its own 365-day validity window.

5. Expiration: the 365-day rule

Purchased credits are valid for 365 days from the date of purchase.

• Expired credits are removed from your balance automatically.
• Your account stays active and you keep your 1 free daily scan forever.
• Credits from other still-valid packs are unaffected.
• Credits are spent oldest-first, so packs closest to expiration are used first.

6. Checking your balance

Your remaining free scans for today and your purchased credit balance are both shown at the top of the home screen.

7. Refunds

We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee on credit packs. See the full Refund Policy.
