Credits

Every account has a credit balance. Each call deducts credits from the balance — both successes and failures are charged. Costs vary per endpoint:

Endpoint Success Failure
POST /download 10 credits per GB delivered (capped at your account size limit) 1 credit
POST /info 2 credits 1 credit
POST /list-channel 1 credit per 10 items returned (e.g. 47 items → 5 credits) 1 credit
POST /client-download 3 credits 1 credit

Polling endpoints (GET /download/{jobId}, GET /info/{jobId}, GET /client-download/{jobId}) are free. Auth failures (401) and credit-limit errors (403) are not charged.
