# Billing

> Understanding how billing works for the Creatify API

## How it works

Creatify uses a **subscription model** for self-serve. Subscribe to a plan to unlock API access and monthly credits. If your usage exceeds certain thresholds, you can [book a call](https://meetings.hubspot.com/alyssa326/creatify-scheduler) to get an enterprise plan.

## Getting started

To start using the Creatify API, subscribe to one of our plans:
