Credits

Are credits charged when generation fails?

A credit system should be easy to understand: preview what you can, generate intentionally, and keep failed technical attempts separate from successful saved results.

Search intent

Quora-style tool comparison questions often ask whether an AI clothes changer is free, whether credits are wasted, and what happens when a generation fails.

Quick answer

The short version

Credits should represent successful saved AI results, not broken technical attempts. If a generation fails because of a verified service issue, keep the account email and generation details so support can review the record.

01

Successful saved result

A generation is treated as billable when the AI result is completed, saved, and available in account history.

  • The result has finished processing.
  • The output is available in account history.
  • The generation was not blocked by upload validation or a service failure.
02

Technical failure

If a generation fails because of a verified service issue, contact support with your account email and generation details so the credit record can be reviewed.

03

Why history matters

History helps show whether a generation is still processing, succeeded, failed, or already charged. This reduces confusion around retrying.

Recommended workflow

How to turn the answer into a better result.

  1. Check generation historyLook for whether the item is processing, succeeded, failed, or saved.
  2. Retry only after understanding the failureIf the input was too large or unclear, fix the input before spending another attempt.
  3. Contact support with detailsInclude account email, approximate time, model choice, and what happened.

Decision checklist

Before you rely on the preview

  • The result completed and is visible in history.
  • The issue was not caused by an unsupported input or request.
  • You can provide enough details for support to find the record.
  • You understand that creative dissatisfaction is different from a technical failure.

Try the workflow

Use previews before higher-quality passes.

Start with a lower-cost preview when you are testing photo quality, garment references, or prompt wording.

FAQ

Is AI Clothes Changer free?

New-account benefits and pricing can change, so check the pricing page. The product is designed around credits for saved generations.

Do I lose credits if my upload is invalid?

Upload validation errors should happen before generation. If a real technical failure occurs, support can review the generation record.

What if I dislike the result?

AI outputs vary. A disliked creative result is different from a failed technical attempt, so use lower-cost previews before higher-quality generations.
