How credits work
Credits track what the data costs
We pay our data providers for every search result, keyword list, backlink profile and AI answer. Credits pass that cost on at one fixed rate, so a light month uses fewer and a busy one can top up.
| Action | Credits (estimate) |
|---|---|
| A keyword research search (about 150 ideas) | 54 |
| One tracked keyword, one rank check (top 40, one device) | about 7.5, up to 15 |
| A 5×5 local map grid for one keyword | 75 |
| A backlink profile with a year of history | 79 |
| One AI answer (one prompt, one engine) | about 1.5 |
| A site audit page rendered with JavaScript | about 0.6 to 3.8 |
| Standard audit pages, Search Console and GA4, saved results | 0 |
Estimates at the subscription rate. The app shows the exact cost before anything runs.
- 1,000 credits = $1
- Credits pay for the data each action pulls: search results, keyword data, backlinks, AI answers and rendered pages.
- Credits reset monthly
- Every paid plan adds a month of credits on renewal. A quiet month uses fewer; unused plan credits don't roll over.
- Top-ups never expire
- Buy $10 to $500 at a time (781 credits per $1). They're spent after the month's plan credits.
- Your own DataForSEO key
- On Agency and Scale, connect your DataForSEO account. Its calls bill there and use no credits.

FAQ
Pricing questions
What is a credit?
1,000 credits are $1 of usage. Actions that pull new data, such as a keyword search, a rank check or an AI answer, spend credits based on what that data costs. Reading Search Console, GA4 and results you've already pulled is free.
What happens when I run out?
Work that needs new data pauses until your next month's credits arrive or you buy a top-up. There are no overage charges.
Are tracked keywords included in the price?
The tracked keyword number is how many you can track at once. Each check spends credits, about 7.5 per keyword for the top 40 results on one device. Pro's monthly credits cover about 2,300 keywords checked weekly. Daily checks cost seven times as much, so most people check daily only for the keywords that matter most.
Do unused credits roll over?
Monthly plan credits reset each billing month. Top-up credits never expire and are spent after the month's plan credits.
How do top-ups work?
On any paid plan you can buy $10 to $500 of top-up credits at a time, at the same rate as plan credits.
Can I use my own DataForSEO account?
Yes, on Agency and Scale. Connect your DataForSEO key and its calls bill to your DataForSEO account instead of using credits. AI features and JavaScript rendering still use credits.
Do you charge per seat?
No. Each plan includes a number of seats, from 1 on Solo to 50 on Scale. Clients read reports by link and don't need seats.
Can I change plans?
Upgrades are self-serve and prorated, and the new plan's monthly credits arrive straight away in place of the old plan's unused ones. Downgrades take effect at the end of the billing period.
Can I cancel?
Yes, at any time from Billing. Your plan stays active until the end of the period you've paid for. We don't give partial refunds except where the law requires it.
Is there a free trial?
The Free plan is the trial: 1,000 credits once, one project and every tool, with no card needed.
