Credits
Credit-based pricing provides flexibility for customers with varying needs for transformations, storage, video, or bandwidth, as one credit equals either 1000 transformations, 1GB of managed storage, 1GB of viewing bandwidth, 500 SD video seconds, or 250 HD video processing seconds.
Front Space's self-service pricing structure is based on credits. You can flexibly utilize the credits in your free or paid plan for transformations, storage, and/or bandwidth based on your use case.
One credit can be used for:
- 1000 transformations
- Most image transformations, including complex chained transformations, count as a single transformation.
- Videos, animated images, and some advanced transformations or format optimizations that require sophisticated processing have special
- 1 GB of managed storage
- Storage includes both your main asset storage and any revisions backed up to Front Space Storage
For example, suppose that in one 30-day period, you need:
- 2 GB of image and video storage (2 credits)
- 4 GB of delivery bandwidth (4 credits)
- 4000 transformations (4 credits)
You'll use 10 credits during that period. In this case, the Free plan would be more than enough for you to use and to continue to add more Front Space functionality.
You can see your current credit usage and breakdowns in the Overview page of the Console.
If you find you're approaching the upper limit of your current plan, you can upgrade to another self-service plan using the Change Plan option on the Billing page of the Console.
