At LeadMagnets, we’ve built a flexible credit system designed to adapt to your lead generation needs. From pricing transparency to usage control, this guide will show you how to manage credits effectively and maximize your investment. Whether you’re running small campaigns or scaling up, you have the power to control how credits are used while staying within your budget.
A credit represents a captured lead—someone who willingly submits their information through one of your lead magnets. The number of credits used depends on the type of lead magnet and the AI model used.
Credits can be added manually or through automated top-offs, with lower costs available to higher-tier plans. Here's a quick look at the lowest cost per lead based on your plan tier:
The cost per lead for the Startup, Pro, and Unlimited plan is $5, $3, & $3 per lead, respectively, when purchased using automated monthly top-offs with a 10 lead purchase minimum. The Unlimited plan is $1 per lead when using a custom API key and charging your credit balance automatically.
LeadMagnets allows you to manage your credits effectively by offering several options to control your lead spend:
Set a Credit Usage Limit per Lead per Lead Magnet
Control how many credits each lead magnet can use by setting a limit on the credits allocated per lead. This helps you manage costs per magnet based on your budget or lead priority.
Set a Credit Usage Limit per Day per Lead Magnet
Stay in control of your daily lead spend by setting a daily credit usage cap for individual lead magnets. This feature prevents unexpected credit overuse and helps manage daily budgets across multiple campaigns.
Set a Total Lead Spend Budget for Your Account
To avoid overspending, you can set an overall lead spend budget for your account. If your budget is hit, all lead magnets will be automatically disabled to prevent further credit usage, ensuring you stay within your planned costs.
LeadMagnets offers advanced AI-powered lead magnets, which provide deeper insights and more personalized interactions. However, the advanced AI model consumes 2 credits per lead instead of 1 credit per lease.
This means that while you’ll be using more credits per lead with advanced AI models, you’ll also gain more valuable, qualified leads.
LeadMagnets has a Playground for you to test your lead magnets while building them in the platform. To prevent AI abuse, when testing your lead magnets in the Playground, credits are consumed to offset the AI usage costs. The usage will be deducted from your credit balance at a much lower rate, based on a cost-basis rather than per lead. Additionally, testing lead form submissions during the setup process does not consume any lead credits, allowing you to perfect your magnet without worrying about consuming a credit while submitting the lead form.
At LeadMagnets, you can easily manage your credits by choosing between automatic or manual recharges, depending on your needs. Here’s a simple breakdown of how recharging works:
Here’s a breakdown of pricing for both manual and automated recharges:
You can add credits in three ways:
Auto Recharge allows you to automatically top up your credits when needed. It’s the most cost-effective option for recharging your credits:
Startup Plan: $50 for 10 leads
Business Plan: $30 for 10 leads
Unlimited Plan: $30 for 10 leads*
*For the Unlimited plan, if you are using the Custom API Key, see below for Custom API pricing.
Manual Recharge gives you the flexibility to add credits as needed, but at a slightly higher cost compared to auto recharges:
Startup Plan: $60 for 10 leads
Business Plan: $40 for 10 leads
Unlimited Plan: $40 for 10 leads*
*Same as above, Custom API users on the Unlimited plan should refer to the Custom API pricing.
For Unlimited plan users with the Custom API Key enabled, the cost for leads is different. This option provides a discounted price with a higher minimum purchase:
Unlimited Plan: $50 for 50 leads (with Custom API Key)
Auto Recharge: Automatically add credits when your balance runs low, so you never miss out on capturing leads.
Manual Recharge: Add credits manually when needed, giving you more control over when and how much you add.
Custom API: For users on the Unlimited plan using the Custom API, you can buy larger amounts of credits at a reduced rate.
