How credits work
Simple plans. Usage-led pricing.
Start with a plan.
Add credit bundles when you need more power.
Think of credits as fuel for power actions — like AI search and enriching data.
How it works
- Your plan gives you access to Handshaik
- Credit bundles are purchased separately
- Credits are only used when you run high-value actions
- You stay in control of when and how credits are used
What’s included (no credits needed)
You can do most of your work without using credits:
- Your plan gives you access to Handshaik
- Use Classic mode filters
- Build and manage target lists
- Use Nurture (pipeline & storage)
- Receive notifications and updates
Credit value
Credits are significantly cheaper on paid plans.
- Free plan: £0.10 per credit
- Paid plans: £0.01 per credit
What uses credits
Credits are only used when you run actions that require additional processing —like AI search or data enrichment.
Most actions have fixed credit costs, while AI usage varies depending on therequest.
AI & search
- AI mode (natural language search): Typically 20–200 credits per message, depending on the complexity of the request.
Contact enrichment
- Email: 5 credits per email
- Phone: 20 credits per number
- LinkedIn lookup: Free (when enriching email/phone)
Data actions
- Import: Importing your own data is always free
- Export: 2 credits per company
Managing your credits
You’re always in control:
- Turn on auto top-up → credits are added automatically at a lower rate thanmanual purchase
- Leave auto top-up off → purchase bundles as and when you need them(without the discount)
No hidden fees. No unexpected charges.
Do credits expire?
- Credits remain valid for your entire plan term and reset on renewal
- Unused credits do not roll over
Why credits?
Most platforms charge high seat fees — whether you use them or not. Handshaik is different:
- Start with a simple plan
- Add credits bundles to unlock more power when you need it
- Scale usage with your pipeline
In short
- Plan = access
- Credits = power
- Bundles = control
