What uses my credits?

Updated

Credits don't disappear without a logged reason. Check your usage history first: it logs every deduction with the model and timestamp. The most common causes are a subscription reset at renewal, generations through MCP or CLI, multiple outputs from one prompt.


How do I check where my credits went?

  1. Click your avatar in the top right corner and select Manage Account.

  2. Open Usage in the left sidebar.

Credits Usage History shows every credit operation: deductions, refunds, the model used, and a timestamp. Check this before contacting Support, the reason is almost always there. For full detail on what the log includes, see How do credits work?

How to confirm

Subscription credits reset at renewal. They reset every billing cycle and don't roll over

Check your renewal date: Manage Account Subscription, the date is at the top under your plan name

Credits spent outside the web app. Generations through MCP, CLI, Canvas, Supercomputer, and other automated tools always deduct credits, even for models with Unlimited access on the web

Generations from connected agents appear in your usage history tagged with the source

Multiple outputs from one prompt. If you set the batch size to 2, 3, or 4 before generating, each output is charged separately

The total cost is shown on the Generate button before you confirm

A failed generation didn't return credits. Most failed generations return credits automatically

Look for the return in your usage history; if it's missing, contact Support

Got any questions left?

The most common reason is a subscription reset: at each renewal, unused subscription credits expire and a new allowance is added. Your usage history (Manage AccountUsage) shows the exact operation behind any change.

Failed generations return credits automatically. If the refund doesn't appear in your usage history, contact Support at support@higgsfield.ai.

Yes. Unlimited access and free generations apply only on higgsfield.ai. Any generation made outside it, including through MCP, CLI, Canvas, Supercomputer, and other automated tools, always deducts credits.

Check the batch size you selected before generating: if it was set to 2, 3, or 4, each output is charged separately. The total cost for the selected batch is shown on the Generate button before you confirm.
