# Credits & Billing

> What a call costs and how billing works.

Each plan includes a monthly allowance of **credits**. Every audit draws from it. Re-checking a contract you've already audited is the cheapest path.

## What a call costs

| Call                                                        | Credits |
| ----------------------------------------------------------- | ------- |
| Re-check a contract you've already audited                  | 1       |
| New audit, verified source                                  | 4       |
| New audit, closed source                                    | 16      |
| Subscribe a token to push updates (one-time, per new token) | 2       |

A new audit costs **4 credits** for a contract with verified, published source. Unverified (closed-source) contracts cost **16 credits**, since they require more work to analyze.

Subscribing a token to [push updates](/sse-and-webhooks) is a **one-time 2 credits** per token, charged only for genuinely new subscriptions (re-subscribing an existing token is free), and any re-audit the watcher later triggers is included at no extra cost. A bulk subscribe of *N* new tokens therefore costs *N* × 2.

<Note>
  Credits are billed per account, not per key; all of your keys share one allowance.

## Plans and overage

Choose a monthly plan that fits your volume on the [pricing page](https://www.serializedaudit.io/portal/plans). Credits reset each billing period. With pay-as-you-go enabled, calls beyond your allowance are billed automatically; otherwise the API returns `402` once the allowance is reached (see [Errors](/errors)).

New accounts start with **free trial credits** so you can integrate before subscribing.

## Tracking usage

Your [dashboard](https://www.serializedaudit.io/portal) shows credits used and remaining for the current period, usage over time, and recent calls.
