# Credits

> Learn how workflow credits work, avoid running out, and use them efficiently.

Credits power Flowla's workflows and AI features. Each time a workflow action runs successfully, it uses a credit. Standard actions use 1 credit, AI actions use 2. Credits renew monthly with your billing cycle.

You can check your current usage at the bottom of the left sidebar.

### Credit usage

| Action type              | Credits used |
| ------------------------ | ------------ |
| Standard workflow action | 1 credit     |
| AI action                | 2 credits    |
| Trigger                  | 0 credits    |

<Note>Only successful actions consume credits. If an action fails, you won't be charged.</Note>

### Viewing your credits

Check your credit status at the bottom of the left sidebar:

* **Current usage** — Credits used this billing period
* **Credit limit** — Total credits available
* **Reset date** — When credits renew

***

### What happens when you run out

When your organisation's credits are exhausted:

1. **Workflows pause** — Active workflows stop executing
2. **Queued actions wait** — Pending actions remain queued until credits renew
3. **Triggers still fire** — Events are captured, but actions don't run
4. **Credits renew monthly** — Full allocation is restored on your billing date

If you need credits before your renewal date, contact support to upgrade your credit package.

### Credit limits by plan

| Plan              | Monthly credits    |
| ----------------- | ------------------ |
| **Starter & Pro** | 100 credits        |
| **Team**          | 10,000 credits     |
| **Enterprise**    | Custom / on-demand |

### Tips to reduce credit usage

### Filter your triggers

Configure triggers to only run for relevant objects. Use conditions to prevent unnecessary workflow runs.

### Use break actions

Add conditional break actions to stop workflows early when criteria aren't met, preventing downstream actions from consuming credits.

### Consolidate actions

Combine multiple small workflows into efficient larger ones where possible.

### Review workflow analytics

Monitor which workflows consume the most credits and optimise high-usage ones.

### Book a workshop

Schedule a session with our team to optimise your workflows and reduce credit consumption.
