One of the most common questions we get is: "Do my unused credits roll over to the next month?"
The answer depends on how you bought them. At IndieDoers, we distinguish between Subscription Credits (which expire) and Pay-As-You-Go Credits (which do not).
Here is how the policy works for each type.
1. Subscription Credits (Monthly Plan)
Policy: "Use It or Lose It"
Credits that come with your monthly Basic or Pro plan are designed for consistent, active workflows.
No Rollover: These credits do not roll over. If you do not use them by your renewal date, they will expire and be replaced by your new month's allowance.
Renewal Cycle: Your credits reset on the same day every month. You can verify this date in the Billing section of your dashboard under the "Subscription credits" card (e.g., "Renews Jan 3, 2026").
Why? This structure allows us to offer Subscription credits at our lowest possible rate ($13–$14/credit) because it helps us predict our team's workload effectively.
2. Pay-As-You-Go Credits (Flexible Packs)
Policy: "Keep Them Forever"
Credits purchased via "Buy Credits" top-ups behave differently.
Never Expire: These credits are yours forever. You can buy them today and use them six months or two years from now.
Stackable: These credits "stack" on top of each other. If you buy a pack of 50 now and another pack of 50 later, you will simply have 100 flexible credits available in your account.
Safe from Resets: Even if you cancel your monthly subscription, your Pay-As-You-Go credits remain in your account, ready for use whenever you return.1
Summary: The Difference
Credit Type | Expiration Rule | Rollover? |
Subscription | Expires monthly on renewal date | ❌ No |
Pay-As-You-Go | Never expires | ✅ Yes (Forever) |
Pro Tip: Managing Your Balance
If you have both types of credits, we recommend planning your requests to maximize your Subscription credits first, as those are the only ones with a "deadline." You can view your separate balances at any time on the Billing page.
