Pricing questions

What is a generation credit?

A credit is what you spend to generate a 3D model -- a figurine, keychain, lamp, or any Creative Lab object. How many credits a specific object costs is shown before you generate; it varies by object type and by stage (concept vs. build).

Can I use the same credits for figurines and Creative Lab?

Yes. Your credit balance is shared across every generation type -- top up once, then spend it on any figurine or Creative Lab object, in any mix.

Do bigger packs cost less per credit?

Yes -- every pack shows its price per credit, and the larger packs are meaningfully cheaper per credit than the smaller ones. Check the per-credit price shown on each pack before you buy.

Do credits expire?

It depends on the pack -- each pack's validity is shown before you buy. Some packs never expire; others are valid for a set number of days from purchase. Credits you've already bought keep the expiry they were sold with, even if that pack's terms change later.

What happens if my generation fails?

You're never charged for a failure on our end -- the credit is automatically refunded to your balance, no need to contact support. This only covers a genuine failure, not simply changing your mind after a concept is generated.

Do I get a free retry if I don't like the result?

For Creative Lab, yes -- you get one free reroll of the concept step per generation before further concept retries cost a credit. The build step (turning a concept into your final model) is always charged, since that's the expensive part.

Do new accounts get free credits?

Yes -- new accounts start with a free credit, no purchase required, so you can try a generation before you buy.

How do I pay?

You can pay with M-Pesa (a payment prompt is sent straight to your phone) or through our secure checkout page.
