How Credits Work
Credits are the currency used within MythIQ to pay for model usage. When you purchase credits, a 10% fee is applied to cover our operational costs. For example, if you purchase $100 worth of credits, you'll be charged $110 in total.
Credit Packages
You can purchase credits in any amount starting from $10. Credits never expire and can be used across all models and providers available on MythIQ.

Model Rates
All models on MythIQ are charged at their normal provider rates. This means you pay exactly what the underlying provider charges, with no additional markup beyond the initial 10% fee on credit purchases.

When you purchase $100 worth of credits:
- Base amount: $100.00
- 10% fee: $10.00
- Total charged: $110.00
- Credits received: $100.00
Example 2: Model Usage
If you generate 10 images with DALL-E 3 at 1024×1024 resolution:

Example 3: Cost Optimization
MythIQ's model routing can help optimize costs. For example, if you use the "cheapest" routing option for image generation, the system will automatically select the most cost-effective provider that can fulfill your request, potentially saving you money compared to always using premium models.
