## **📋 Overview**

The Search Atlas Growth plan includes a set of monthly credits across three quota types, plus a one-time promotional bonus for customers who sign up on an annual billing cycle. This article explains exactly what you receive and how to verify your allocation.

## **💡 Your Monthly Credit Allocation**

Every billing cycle, your Growth plan account is refreshed with the following credits:

- **AI Generation Quota:** a monthly allotment for standard AI content generation tasks (exact amount shown on your Billing page under Plans & Top-ups)
- **AI Premium Quota:** a separate monthly allotment reserved for advanced AI outputs, including long-form content generation and premium model requests (exact amount shown on your Billing page under Plans & Top-ups).
- **Hyperdrive Credits:** a separate monthly allotment applied toward high-speed content workflows and bulk processing tasks powered by Hyperdrive (exact amount shown on your Billing page under Plans & Top-ups).

These credits reset automatically at the start of each new billing period. Unused credits do not roll over to the following month.

## **🎁 Annual Signup Bonus Credits**

Customers who purchase the Growth plan on an **annual billing cycle** receive a one-time promotional bonus added to their account at the time of signup. The bonus allocation is:

- **Annual signup bonus:** an additional one-time credit bonus across all three quota types — the exact amounts are confirmed on your account’s Billing page under Plans & Top-ups after signup

These bonus credits are added once and are separate from your recurring monthly allocation. Unlike monthly credits, **bonus credits do not expire** and are consumed before your regular monthly credits each cycle.

## **🔍 How to Verify Your Current Quota**

To check your current credit balances and confirm your bonus credits were applied correctly, follow these steps:

1. Log in to your Search Atlas account.
2. Click on your avatar in the top-right corner of the dashboard.
3. Select **Billing** from the dropdown menu.
4. Navigate to the **Plans & Top-ups** tab.
5. Review the credit summary table, which displays your current monthly balance, bonus balance, and next reset date for each quota type.

If the bonus credits are not visible within **24 hours** of completing your annual signup, there may be a processing delay or an issue with your order confirmation.

## **⚙️ How Credits Are Consumed**

Understanding credit consumption order helps you get the most from your allocation:

- Bonus credits are **always used first**, before your monthly credits are drawn down.
- Each quota type is tracked independently — using AI Premium Quota does not affect your AI Generation Quota balance, and vice versa.
- Hyperdrive Credits are only consumed when you run a Hyperdrive-specific workflow; standard tasks do not draw from this pool.

## **❓ Frequently Asked Questions**

**Do monthly credits roll over if I don't use them all?**  
No. Monthly credits reset at the start of each billing cycle. Only your one-time annual bonus credits persist until they are fully used.

**Can I purchase additional credits if I run out mid-month?**  
Yes. Credit top-ups are available directly from the top-right avatar menu under Billing → Plans & Top-ups. Select the quota type you need and follow the on-screen prompts to add credits instantly.

**I signed up annually but don't see my bonus credits. What should I do?**  
First, allow up to 24 hours for the credits to appear. If they are still missing after that window, use the support channel below so our team can investigate your order.
