Credits are the currency for headshot generation and Magic Editor edits. Each plan comes with included credits, and you can purchase more at any time.

## How Credits Work

Credits are deducted when you generate headshots or use the Magic Editor. Your current balance is visible on the **Billing & Credits** page.

-   **Headshot generation:** 12 credits per style combination
-   **Magic Editor edits:** 2 credits per edit
-   **Expand to landscape:** 4 credits (full 4K output)
-   **Upscaling:** 2 credits (4K) or 8 credits (8K)

## Included Credits

Each plan includes Magic Editor credits to get you started:

-   **Basic:** 8 credits
-   **Professional:** 16 credits
-   **Executive:** 32 credits

## Buying More Credits

Need more? Purchase additional credit packs from the **Billing & Credits** page — current pack sizes and prices are shown there. Payment is handled securely through Stripe. Purchased credits are added to your balance immediately.

## Tracking Usage

The **Billing & Credits** page shows a full transaction history of all credit movements — purchases, usage, refunds, and bonuses. You can filter by type, profile, or date range to find specific transactions.

## Failed Operations

If a headshot generation or Magic Editor edit fails, the credits spent on that operation are automatically returned to your balance. You'll see this as a separate entry in your transaction history. If you believe credits were not returned correctly, please [contact support](https://jobfoto.ch/support).
