# Credit Usage

> Understand and manage your Arbi credits

## What are Arbi credits?

Credits are the currency that powers key actions across the Arbi platform. They give you access to candidate emails, phone numbers, AI-powered signals, and branded profile exports, helping you reach the right talent with personalized precision.

Every Arbi plan includes a monthly credit allocation shared across your team. Credits are consumed when you perform specific actions like revealing contact information, running signal enrichment, or exporting candidate profiles. Once a credit is spent on a candidate, that data stays unlocked for your entire organization permanently.

## How to use credits

Credits are consumed automatically when you take an action that requires them. You do not need to manually assign or allocate credits.

* **Reveal contact data** - open any candidate profile and click **Reveal Contact Details**. All available emails and phone numbers are unlocked for 1 credit. Learn more in [Contact data](/sourcing/contact-data).
* **Run signal enrichment** - use AI-powered signals to generate personalized outreach context for a candidate. Each signal run costs 1-2 credits depending on depth. Learn more in [AI prompts](/outreach/ai-prompts).
* **Export branded profiles** - export a candidate's profile with your company branding applied. Each export costs 1 credit. Learn more in [Branded exports](/sourcing/branded-exports).

## How to manage credits

Credit management lives in **Settings > Billing**. From there you can see your current plan, total credit usage, and a breakdown by category.

<Frame caption="The Billing page showing your current plan, total credit usage, and breakdown by Contact, Signal, and Profile Export usage.">
  <img src="https://mintcdn.com/neuroscale/HvHZCrA7PPCOJjJ4/images/credits-billing.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=HvHZCrA7PPCOJjJ4&q=85&s=5d5f7ceffdc2bf0bc06e8297980639b6" alt="Billing settings page showing team credit usage with progress bars for Contact usage, Signal usage, and Profile export usage" width="1822" height="1374" data-path="images/credits-billing.png" />
</Frame>

### Viewing usage details

The billing page shows your **Team credit usage** for the current billing period with a progress bar and count (e.g. "5 credits of 3,000 credits / month"). Below that, the **Credit usage breakdown** splits usage into three categories:

* **Contact usage** - credits spent on contact data reveals.
* **Signal usage** - credits spent on AI signal enrichment.
* **Profile export usage** - credits spent on branded candidate exports.

Click the **Usage** link on any category to see a detailed log of every credit spent, including who used it, the date and time, and the amount. Entries marked with **-1** indicate a credit spent, and **+1** indicates a credit refunded.

### Auto top-up

Enable **Auto topup** from the billing page to automatically purchase additional credits when your team runs low. This prevents interruptions during active sourcing campaigns.

### Purchasing additional credits

If you need more credits beyond your plan's monthly allocation, click **Add or Manage** on the billing page. The **Credits Add-on** panel lets you purchase additional credit packs on top of your seat pool.

Choose from preset amounts (+5k, +10k, +25k, +50k) or enter a custom amount. Add-ons are billed on your existing billing cycle (monthly or annually) and are applied immediately. You can also enter a **Discount Code** if you have one.
