Credit Rules & Policies
Monthly Credits
- Reset completely each month on your billing date
- No rollover - unused credits don't carry forward
- Cannot be refunded - they're part of your subscription
- Use first - LiGo uses monthly credits before purchased credits
Purchased Credits
- Never expire - use them anytime
- Stack with monthly credits for extra capacity
- Used second - after monthly subscription credits are exhausted
Checking Your Credits
Where to See Your Balance
- Dashboard shows current credit balance for each type
- Monthly reset - credits refresh on your billing date
- Usage history - track what you've used credits on
Credit Usage Priority
LiGo automatically uses your credits in this order:
- Monthly credits first (from your subscription)
- Purchased credits second (your extra credit packs)
This ensures you get maximum value from your monthly subscription before using purchased credits.
Managing Your Credits Effectively
Smart Usage Tips
- Monitor your usage regularly through the dashboard
- Plan your content creation around your monthly limits
- Buy extra credits for busy periods or special campaigns
- Use monthly credits first by tracking your remaining balance
When to Buy Extra Credits
- You're approaching your monthly limit
- You have a content campaign that needs extra posts/comments
- You need credits that won't expire with your billing cycle
Common Questions
"What happens if I run out of credits?"
You can buy more credits instantly from your dashboard through the credits purchase page. There's no service interruption - just purchase and continue creating.
"Do purchased credits affect my monthly plan?"
No. Purchased credits are separate and just give you extra capacity beyond your monthly plan limits.
"Can I get refunds on unused monthly credits?"
No. Monthly credits are part of your subscription and reset each month. And unused credits are neither rolled over, nor refundable. We have a "try before you buy" policy for all purchases as you would have noticed.
"How do I know which credits I'm using?"
Your dashboard shows whether you're using monthly credits or purchased credits for each action. Monthly (subscription) credits are always used first.
"Can I share credits with team members?"
Credits are tied to individual accounts. For team collaboration, consider our delegate access features or separate accounts for team members.
"What if I downgrade my plan mid-month?"
Your current monthly credits remain available until your next billing cycle. The new plan's credit allocation takes effect on your next billing date.
"Do credits expire if I cancel my subscription?"
- Monthly credits expire when your subscription ends
- Purchased credits never expire, even if you cancel your subscription
