FAQ

How many credits does each operation cost?

One HDR credit is charged for each operation that downloads a file. This happens when:

You merged a bracketed set and processed it with an HDR preset
You processed a single image with an HDR preset
You merged a bracketed set and created a 32-bit HDR image

Other operations such as uploading images do not incur any credit charges.

How do I know how many credits I have used?

You can query the API to return the amount of credits you used via the api.hdrsoft.com/usage call. See details in the API documentation.

I see the Standard plan starts with a zero payment. How does it work?

The monthly payment for the Standard plan has two components:

A fixed charge for your credit quota, i.e. the amount of monthly credits you automatically get during the billed month. You select that amount from the pull-down menu for the Standard plan (2,000 by default, charged at $29/month).
A per credit charge if you used more than your credit quota during the billed month. For instance, if your monthly quota is 2,000 credits and you used 2,500 credits during the billed month, you will be charged for the 500 credits above your quota, as well.

The Standard plan takes into account your usage, i.e. the number of credits you used during the billed month. Since that usage is only known once the billed period is completed, the per credit charge for the period, if any, can only be billed in arrears.

Though the fixed charge could be billed in advance (as it is for the Lite plan), it is billed in arrears as well, so that you pay it at the same time as you pay for any additional credit above your quota, instead of paying it separately.

How do I change the monthly credit quantity of my subscription?

You can change the amount of monthly HDR credits in your subscription by purchasing a new subscription for the new amount and cancelling the old one.

You will then get a new API key that has the new number of credits on it.
