Which credits are used first?

When an action uses credits, Replaiy does not use all credit types in random order. There is a fixed priority system.

Credit usage order

Credits are consumed in this order:

  1. Subscription credits first.

  2. PAYG credits second.

  3. If there are multiple PAYG credit purchases, the oldest PAYG batch is used first.

Why this order exists

Subscription credits expire at the end of the billing cycle. PAYG credits stay valid for 12 months. Using subscription credits first helps prevent included credits from expiring unused while purchased PAYG credits sit untouched.

What FIFO means for PAYG credits

If you bought PAYG credits more than once, Replaiy uses the oldest PAYG purchase first. This is often called FIFO, or first in, first out.
