# Credits & Pricing

All payments are in SOL. USD prices are shown for clarity and converted at spot rate at checkout. 1 credit = 1 message. Credits can be purchased from both [portal.stormrae.ai](https://portal.stormrae.ai/) and [king.stormrae.ai](http://king.stormrae.ai/).

#### Price Curve

Credit prices increase as more packs are sold globally. Every 5 credits sold pushes the price index up by one step. Buying a 10-credit pack moves the index by 2. Buying a 20-credit pack moves it by 4. This keeps progression fair regardless of bundle size.
