# Credits

> See your balance, what spends credits, and when they come back.

Credits are separate from your plan. You buy them on the website, and they pay for AI texture generation. Nothing else in Rageon spends them. For prices, see [rageon.dev/pricing](https://rageon.dev/pricing).

## See your balance

The gem and number in the account chip, at the right end of the title bar, show your balance. **Settings** › **Account** shows it under **Credits**. See [Your account](/account/overview.md).

The chip after buying 500 credits: the number counts up and a green +500 appears above it.

Buy credits with **Manage on the website** in **Settings** › **Account**. The balance updates when you return to the app window.

## What spends credits

The **AI** tab of the texture editor spends credits when you generate, and so does **Improve the request**. The cost shows next to the button of each request, and the balance in the title bar updates after it. See [AI generation](/projects/texturing/ai-generation.md).

Generating AI textures for a structure spends credits in the same way.

Reusing an image already returned for a texture costs nothing. Deriving normal and specular maps from a generated color costs nothing either.

## When credits come back

* A candidate that fails or is blocked by the content filter is refunded. It shows **Failed · refunded** or **Moderated · refunded**.
* If the text service does not answer, the credits are returned.
* A variation Rageon discards because it changed the object's shape is not refunded when the rest of the result was delivered.

Stopping to follow a request does not cancel it. The request keeps running on the server and its credits are already charged.

## Troubleshooting

> **Not enough credits for this generation.**
>
> Your balance is lower than the cost. Buy credits at [rageon.dev/pricing](https://rageon.dev/pricing), or lower the quality, size, or number of candidates.

> **Your credits don't cover this generation, which costs ….**
>
> Same cause. The message shows the cost of the request.

> **Not enough credits: Improve costs ….**
>
> Your balance is lower than the cost of **Improve the request**. Buy credits on the website.

> **Insufficient credits.**
>
> The balance is lower than the cost. Buy credits on the website.

> **The price went above the amount shown, so nothing was charged.**
>
> Check the new amount and generate again.

> **Sign in to your account to generate a texture.**
>
> Sign in first. See [Sign in](/start/sign-in.md).

> **No connection to the generation server.**
>
> Generation needs a connection, even while the app is in its offline period. Try again when you are online.
