🧮 Refly Credits System Guide
This guide will help you understand Refly's credits system: what credits are used for, how to obtain them, consumption rules, package benefits, and early user retention benefits.
📌 What are Credits?
Refly credits are a universal billing unit that can be used to call various AI models and features on the platform. You can think of credits as the "fuel" for AI usage — each model call deducts corresponding credits based on consumption.
📥 How to Obtain Credits
You can obtain credits through the following methods:
Subscription Packages (Recommended)
- Each package includes daily credit refresh + monthly bonus credits
- Package credits are universal for all models, no modality restrictions
Individual Credit Packages (Coming Soon)
- Pay-as-you-go, more flexible for topping up
Events / Friend Invitations (Coming Soon)
- Receive additional bonus credits through periodic events
💡 Package Credit Rules
- Daily credits automatically refresh and do not accumulate to the next day
- Bonus credits are one-time distributions for advanced models or multimodal calls
- All credits can be viewed in transaction history and consumption details
👤 Legacy User Benefits
✅ Legacy Members (Plus / Pro / Max)
Original packages are retained with monthly automatic credit distribution:

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What are credits? How do they differ from previous memberships?
A: Credits are Refly's new universal billing unit for using various models, generating content, running tasks, and other activities. Unlike old memberships, credits are more flexible and no longer limited by fixed package features.
- Before: "Paid subscription package → Fixed feature quantity"
- Now: "Pay for credits → Any model and feature deducted on demand"
For example, you can use credits to:
- Call multiple models like GPT-4, Claude 3, Gemini Pro
- Run workflows like image generation/document Q&A/long image interpretation
- Upload files to knowledge base or build intelligent agents
Q2: What about old members? Is switching to new packages mandatory?
A: No. We respect every legacy user's choice:
- Users with existing packages will retain their original packages and pricing
- System will distribute equivalent credits monthly for normal usage, no additional action needed
- If you want higher credits and more flexible permissions, you can upgrade to new packages anytime
- ⚠️ Once switched to new packages, you cannot switch back to old packages
Q3: How do I know how many credits I've used? Can I control usage?
A: We provide detailed credit consumption records and prediction prompts:
- Shows estimated consumption before each generation (e.g., calling Kimi K2 consumes 1 credit)
- Supports credit balance queries
Q4: Which models are supported? Are credits sufficient?
A: All mainstream AI models are supported with transparent and controllable usage:
- Supported models include GPT-4.1, Gemini Pro, Kimi K2, etc.
- Refly will continuously optimize model call pricing to ensure credits are more "durable"
- If credits are insufficient, you can also purchase individual credit packages anytime without upgrading packages
