One request is the billing unit
Every successful retrieval request costs one credit, including a successful empty result. The rate is $1 per 1000 successful requests: one paid credit equals $0.001. A $50 minimum paid top-up therefore adds 50000 paid credits. The limit of 100 records per request is a response bound, not a conversion between records and credits. There is no subscription, and paid credits do not expire.
For the PostgreSQL field-inspection example, one successful page requested with limit=3 costs one credit whether it contains zero, one, two or three records. Reading your saved response ten times to test different projections consumes no further API credits. Requesting ten pages successfully costs ten credits even if your local validator rejects every resulting row. Distinguish these two costs in your extraction budget.
Trial eligibility and the account balance
An optional trial can provide 100 credits to an eligible account. Network-wide anti-abuse controls apply, so registration does not guarantee the trial. Those conditional credits are separate from the 50000 paid credits in a $50 top-up. A key is shown immediately after signup, before payment; a trial refusal does not turn key issuance into a paid delivery service.
Keys and balances are specific to the redditextract.com account. A balance or key on another network site is not interchangeable. Check the account panel on the key page before launching a bounded job. Invalid requests do not buy data, upstream failures refund reservations, and successful empty retrievals are charged. A failure in local normalization does not reverse a successful API request.
Follow the current invoice for a supported transfer
After login, create an invoice for USDT TRC20 or USDC ERC20 on Ethereum mainnet. Use the receiving address and exact amount displayed on that current server-created invoice, with its selected token and network. The invoice identifies the payment to verify; it does not establish that an address changes for every invoice. Do not substitute a token-contract address or an address copied from an unrelated example.
An invoice expires one hour after creation; check its displayed expiry and current instructions before sending funds. After making the transfer, submit its transaction hash for verification through the account panel and follow the invoice status. Crediting depends on a confirmed genuine transfer; there is no guaranteed settlement time. These instructions are not a promise to recover wrong-token or wrong-network payments. Paid-credit validity also does not guarantee that a particular archived record will be present when you later query it.
