How Do Credits Work?

A guide to FullEnrich credits, including how they’re used, when they expire, how platform access is managed, and what happens when your subscription ends.

Written by Charline

What Are Credits?

Credits are used across FullEnrich for contact enrichment, Reverse Email Lookup, and Search. The number of credits consumed depends on the action performed and the data returned.

​

Contact Data Enrichment – Find an email and/or phone number

  • If a Valid, Probably valid, or Catch-all work email is found, 1 credit is used.

  • If a valid personal email is found, 3 credits are used.

  • If a mobile phone number is found, 10 credits are used.

  • No credits are used when no result is found.

Reverse Email Lookup – Find the person and company behind an email

  • A successful Reverse Email Lookup costs 1 credit.

  • No credits are used when no result is found.

Search – Find people or companies

  • Searching and viewing results in the FullEnrich interface is free.

  • Exporting an unenriched person or company from the UI costs 0.25 credits per result. Exporting an already enriched result is free.

  • Through the Search API, each person or company returned costs 0.25 credits.

  • Results that have already been exported or retrieved are not charged again.

Note: For custom plans, credit costs may differ from the standard rates above.


How Do You Buy Credits?

Credits are added automatically according to your plan and billing cycle (Monthly or Yearly plan).

​

You can view our public pricing on the FullEnrich pricing page.

​

Additional packages (including annual options not shown publicly) are available in your Settings → Billing & Plans.

​

Note: Yearly credits are valid for 12 months. Monthly credits are valid for 3 months.


Platform Access & Credits

To use FullEnrich, you must have at least one of the following:

  • An active subscription

  • Valid free credits

If none apply:

  • New enrichments cannot be performed

  • Access to the platform is temporarily limited

Your data is not deleted. Access is restored once you reactivate your subscription or purchase credits.

​


What Can You Do With Credits?

Credits can be used to:

  • Enrich work emails

  • Enrich personal emails

  • Enrich phone numbers

  • Perform reverse email lookups

  • Export unenriched contacts from the Search feature

You can allocate your credits however you prefer.

​


Are Credits Shared Among Members?

Yes. Credits are shared across all members of your Workspace.

​

When you invite a new member, they will use the same shared credit pool.

​

To Invite a Teammate:

You can invite teammates in two ways:

​

Via email:

  1. Go to Settings → Team Members

  2. Click Invite via email

  3. Enter your teammate's email address and set their permissions (Member or Admin)

  4. Click Send invites

Via invite link:

  1. Go to Settings → Team Members → Invitations

  2. Set the permissions level and click Create invite link

  3. Share the link with your teammate

Once they join, they'll be added to your workspace and share the same credit pool.

Note: You earn 50 credits for every new member who joins your workspace.


Credit Rollover & Validity

Credit validity depends on how they were purchased:

  • Monthly plan: Credits are valid for 3 months

  • Annual plan: Credits are valid for 12 months

If credits disappear, it's likely because they expired. You can check expiration dates in Settings → Credit Packs, or by clicking the yellow credit counter in the top right of the app.

​


What Happens If My Subscription Ends?

When you cancel:

  • Your subscription remains active until the end of your billing cycle.

  • You can continue using your credits until that date. At the end of the billing cycle, any unused credits will expire and cannot be used further.

Once the billing cycle ends:

  • Remaining subscription credits expire.

  • If no other valid credits remain, access to Search is restricted.

  • Your data remains stored and can be accessed again upon reactivation.

Before your cancellation is processed, you'll see a final confirmation detailing the impact. If you wish to continue, click Confirm & Cancel.

​

​

Data Retention Policy

For privacy and compliance reasons, enriched contacts are automatically deleted after 3 months, and this is irreversible.

​

We recommend reactivating your subscription within this period if you wish to retain full access to your historical data.

​


What If I Need More Credits?

You can switch your plan at any time from Settings → Billing & Plans.

​

How to Switch Your Plan

  1. Use the slider to select the credit volume you want

  2. Click the purple "Switch plan" button

  3. A confirmation banner will show how many credits will be added on top of your current balance

​

When switching plan:

  • You are charged immediately

  • Credits are added instantly

  • Your renewal date resets to the purchase date

How to Switch Between Monthly and Yearly (and Back)

You can switch between billing cycles directly from the same page.

  1. Select the tab you want at the top: Monthly Plan or Yearly Plan

  2. Choose your credit volume using the slider

  3. Click "Switch plan"

Manual Renewal

You can also manually renew your plan early by clicking the purple Renew Now button in Settings → Billing & Plans.

​

​

This will:

  • Charge you immediately

  • Credits are added instantly

  • Reset your renewal date to today + 1 month
    ​


Can I Pause My Subscription?

If you are on a monthly plan, you may have the option to pause your subscription for up to two months instead of cancelling.

​

While paused:

  • Billing is temporarily suspended

  • Platform access is temporarily restricted

  • Credit expiration dates may be extended

The subscription automatically resumes at the end of the pause period.

​

​


Failed Payment Handling

If a renewal payment fails:

  • You will be notified inside the platform

  • You can update your payment method

If the issue is not resolved, your subscription may be cancelled. If cancelled and no valid credits remain, platform access will be restricted until reactivation.

​


Best Practices

  • Check your credit expiration dates in Settings → Credit Packs: credits last 3 months on monthly plans and 12 months on yearly plans.

  • If several people share your workspace, set per-member credit limits.

  • Downgrade rather than cancel if you want your credits to keep their validity.

  • Export enriched contacts within 3 months, as they're deleted after that.
