Credits, subscriptions, and the library

How plans, credits, and downloads fit together on Crate, without the jargon.

Crate is built around a simple loop: subscribe for access to the platform, buy credits when you need them, then spend credits on individual assets in the library. You always see pricing before you confirm a purchase.

Why subscriptions and credits

The subscription covers platform access and billing infrastructure. Credits keep downloads aligned with what you actually use, so you’re not forced into giant bundles just to grab one file you need.
