Overview
Google Business Profile (GBP) Automation lets you publish posts to your GBP listing directly from Search Atlas. Each post you publish through this feature consumes credits from your account. This article explains the credit cost per GBP Automation post and how to check your credit usage.
Credit Cost Per GBP Automation Post
Each GBP Automation post consumes 1 credit per post published. This applies each time a post is generated and published to your Google Business Profile through the GBP Automation feature in Search Atlas.
How to Check Your Credit Usage
You can monitor your credit consumption directly inside Search Atlas by following these steps:
- Log in to your Search Atlas account.
- Click your avatar in the top-right corner and navigate to the Billing section (tabs: Plans & Top-ups, Services, Invoices, Activity Log).
- Go to Plans & Top-ups (Your Plan and Credits) to see a breakdown of how credits have been spent across categories, including Local.
- If you want to confirm the per-post cost before publishing, review the credit balance shown on the GBP Automation dashboard before and after a test post.
What to Have Ready If You Need Support
If your credit usage does not match what you expect, please have the following information on hand before reaching out:
- Your account name or the email address associated with your Search Atlas account
- The date and time of any GBP Automation posts in question
- The exact credit balance before and after the post was published, if available
- Any error messages or unexpected deductions you have observed
