How Credits Work
Credits power most actions in Uprankly. Your plan comes with a monthly credit allocation. If you run out before the cycle resets, you can buy more.
What costs credits
- Keyword discovery — 1 credit per search
- SEO enrichment (DR, traffic, backlinks) — 3 credits per site
- Contact enrichment (finding email addresses) — 3 credits per site
- Email sent — 1 credit per email
- Site unlock — 1 credit per site
- AI opener generated — 0.25 credits
- AI reply generated — 0.5 credits
- Gap contact enriched — 3 credits
- Backlink scan — 1 credit per 1,000 backlinks
- Gap analysis run — 5 credits
Two things are always free: marking a prospect as ready and any manual admin adjustments.
Where credits come from
Your account can hold credits from up to five sources:
- Plan credits — included with your subscription. Reset at the start of each billing cycle.
- Top-up credits — one-time purchases. Don't reset monthly. They expire 12 months from the purchase date.
- Bonus credits — added by the Uprankly team, usually for promotions.
- Trial credits — included when you start a free trial.
- Referral credits — earned when someone signs up through your referral link.
Go to Settings > Usage & Limits to see each source as a separate line item. You'll always know exactly what you're working with.
When credits reset
Plan credits reset at the start of each billing cycle. Everything else — top-up, bonus, trial, and referral credits — stays in your account until you use it or it expires. They don't get wiped on reset day.
Checking your balance
Go to Settings > Usage & Limits. The credit balance card at the top shows your total, broken down by source. If the number looks off, click Sync Status to pull a fresh balance.
