Credits are how you pay for generations in holala. Every image the AI creates costs credits. No subscriptions to decode, no per-prompt haggling — you spend credits, you get images.

​
One image, one charge

A credit is spent for each image you generate. Ask for one image, you’re charged once. Ask for four variations, you’re charged for four. Two things drive how much a single generation costs:

Resolution

Higher resolution means a bigger, sharper file — and a higher credit cost per image. 1K is the cheapest, 2K costs more, 4K costs the most.

Variations

Each variation is its own image, so each one is charged separately. Four variations cost four times a single image at the same resolution.
Put simply: cost = resolution per image × how many images you ask for. Turn either dial up and the generation costs more.
1K is for tests only. Use it to check framing, model choice, or scene direction before committing. The quality usually isn’t enough for a final. Generate your finished images at 2K or 4K.

​
Trial credits to start

New demo accounts get trial credits added automatically — no purchase, no card. That’s enough to run real generations, try a few templates, and see the output quality for yourself before you decide.
Spend your trial credits on things you actually want to keep. Run a quick 1K test to lock in your setup, then generate the final at 2K or 4K.

​
Watching your balance

Your credit balance is always visible in the STUDIO while you work. Check it before a big batch — especially before a bulk generation or a run of high-resolution variations, since those add up fastest.

​
Save credits

A few habits stretch your balance a long way:
  • Test at 1K first. Dial in the template, model, and scene at the cheapest resolution, then re-run once at 2K or 4K for the keeper.
  • Prep your inputs well. A clean product photo — plain background, single product, correct angle, sharp and uncropped — gets a good result the first time and saves you from re-rolls. See Input uploads and Common mistakes.
  • Generate fewer variations once you’re dialed in. Explore with a couple of options, then when the look is right, produce just the finals you need instead of a large batch.
Every generation spends credits, even ones you end up not using. Getting your product image and reference right before you click Generate is the single best way to avoid wasted credits.
