Credits System
Some API calls to TubeLab's API uses credits from your account. Your credit balance determines how many requests you can make.
Different endpoints may require different credit amounts per request.
How does the credits system work?
Some subscriptions comes with credits that refresh each billing cycle and don't expire right away. Monthly subscribers can use their credits for up to two months - so January credits work through February.
Annual subscribers get all their credits upfront and can use them flexibly throughout their subscription, with credits staying active for over a month into the following year.
Purchased credits never expire but you must have an active subscription to use them.

Cached responses do not use credits. This means that if you make a request to the same endpoint within a short period of time, you will not be charged extra credits.
How to get credits?
You can get credits by subscribing to a TubeLab Pro plan and by topping-up your credits.
What happens if I run out of credits?
You can purchase more credits at any time.
These extra credits work alongside your regular subscription credits and stay valid while your subscription is active.
What happens when a request fails?
When a request fails, the credit will be refunded (reverted).
