## Subscribing
1. After signing in, you're prompted to choose a plan.
2. The **Standard** plan offers a **7-day free trial** — no payment required upfront.
3. Click **"Start Free Trial"** or **"Subscribe"** to proceed to Stripe checkout.
4. After subscribing, return to Coral to set up your assistant.
## Tracking usage
Your usage is visible on the **Settings** page under **Usage & Billing**:
* **Current Plan** — Shows your active plan with a link to manage it.
* **Credit Balance** — Visual progress bar showing credits used vs. included, with the reset date.
* **This Period** — Total requests, tokens, and cost, broken down by AI provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.).
## Switching plans
1. Go to **Settings** > **Usage & Billing** > **Manage Plan**, or navigate to the **Billing** page directly.
2. Click **"Switch to \[Plan Name]"** on your desired plan.
3. The change takes effect at the end of your current billing period. You keep your current credits until then.
## Buying more credits
If you run out of credits before your billing period resets, you can purchase additional credits:
1. Navigate to the **Billing** page.
2. In the **Buy More Credits** section, select how many credits you want.
3. Credits are priced at **\$10 per 1,000 credits**.
4. Purchased credits never expire — they carry over across billing periods.
## Referrals
Share Coral with others and earn credits:
1. Navigate to the **Billing** page.
2. Find your unique **referral link** in the Referrals section.
3. When someone signs up using your link and converts to a paid plan, you both earn bonus credits.
You can track your referrals and total credits earned on the same page.
## Managing billing
Click **"Manage Billing"** to open the Stripe customer portal where you can:
* Update payment methods
* View invoices
* Cancel your subscription
## How credits are consumed
Each AI model request costs credits based on the model tier and token count:
* **[Light](/features/models)** tier models (Gemini 3 Flash) use the fewest credits per request.
* **[Standard](/features/models)** tier models (Claude Sonnet 4.6) use a moderate amount.
* **[Pro](/features/models)** tier models (Claude Opus 4.6, Gemini 3.1 Pro) use the most credits per request.
Credits reset at the start of each billing period. Purchased bonus credits never expire.
If you configured your own API keys (BYOK), model requests are billed directly by your AI provider — Coral credits are not consumed unless [Coral fallback](/features/bring-your-own-key#coral-fallback) is enabled. See [Bring Your Own Key](/features/bring-your-own-key) for details.
