If you have run out of AI credits, there are several ways to get more that do not involve a subscription.
The journey milestones
The dashboard has a card headed YOUR JOURNEY with six milestones. Each has a Claim button once you have done it, and the credits land immediately:
- Create your first project, 10 credits.
- Let the AI edit for you, 15 credits.
- Export your first video, 20 credits.
- Link Telegram or WhatsApp so you can edit by chat, 25 credits.
- Join the Vidmoat Discord and type /link to the bot so we know it is you, 20 credits.
- Read one Academy module, 10 credits.
That is 100 credits in total, and most people have already done the first three without claiming them. There are also optional profile questions on the dashboard, each of which pays on its own, so answering half of them still earns for the half you did.
The free trial
5 days of Creator, redeemed as the code WELCOME in the Have a promo code? field on the pricing page. It is not applied automatically when you sign up, so you have to enter it. Depending on how checkout is configured for you, it either starts a genuine free trial with a card on file, or is granted outright with no card at all, and the confirmation message tells you which.
Day passes
Full Creator access for a fixed window, plus a credit bundle, with no subscription and nothing to cancel:
- 24-hour Pass, 120 credits, $2.99.
- 3-day Pass, 300 credits, $4.99.
- 7-day Pass, 600 credits, $8.99.
A pass sits on top of your account. It never changes your actual plan, and when it expires you are exactly where you were. If you edit every week, Creator monthly is the better deal: passes are for a burst.
Credit packs
Boost 200 for $5, Stack 500 for $10, Vault 1,200 for $20. They never expire and survive the monthly reset.
Where to see what you are spending
The usage page in the dashboard breaks down credits spent by kind, refunded and net, over 7, 30 or 90 days. Refunds appear there as credited back rather than as errors.
