Credits

Conversions made through the API use the same credits as the website: one balance per organization, shared by the dashboard and every API key. Test-mode keys never use credits (see Test mode).

See Pricing for current plans, credit packs, the free allowance and what a credit costs.

What is charged

Failed conversions are not charged. A job can be cancelled while it is waiting or queued, and its reserved credits are released. Jobs that are already processing cannot be cancelled yet, see Jobs.

In the API

• GET /operations lists every supported conversion with a credits_estimated value.
• A job reports credits_estimated when it is created and credits_used once it has finished. A job that fails or is cancelled before processing uses no credits.
• GET /me returns your organization's current credits.balance.
• If your balance cannot cover a job, POST /jobs answers 402 insufficient_credits with credits_required, credits_available and pricing_url (a link to Pricing) in error.details, and nothing is created.
