Question 1

How do credits work?

Accepted Answer

Each API request consumes credits based on the tool complexity. Basic tools like fetch_url cost 1 credit, while advanced tools like deep_research cost 10 credits. You can see the full pricing breakdown in the API Credits Table below.

Question 2

Do unused credits roll over?

Accepted Answer

Yes! All unused credits roll over to the next month and never expire, as long as you maintain an active subscription. This means you never lose credits you’ve paid for.

Question 3

Can I change plans anytime?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! You can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time. When upgrading, you’ll be charged a prorated amount for the remainder of your billing period. When downgrading, your new rate applies at the next billing cycle.

Question 4

What payment methods do you accept?

Accepted Answer

We accept all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover) and debit cards through our secure payment processor, Stripe. All payments are encrypted and PCI-compliant.

Question 5

Is there a free trial?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Our Free plan gives you a one-time grant of 1,000 credits to explore all 20 tools with no credit card required. It’s the perfect way to test CrawlForge MCP before committing to a paid plan. Note: free credits do not reset monthly — upgrade to a paid plan for monthly credit allocations.

Question 6

What happens when I run out of credits?

Accepted Answer

Paid plan users can purchase overage credit packs to continue using the API without interruption. You can also enable auto-recharge to automatically purchase credits when your balance drops below a threshold. Free plan users must upgrade to a paid plan to continue using the API.
