What happens when I run out of credits?
1 min read · Last updated June 2026
When you use up your monthly credits, SlashImage pauses optimizing new images until your allowance resets. Everything you have already optimized keeps being served as normal - running out of credits never takes images down.
What you see
Optimizing stops, and the plugin tells you that you have used all your credits. A bulk run pauses with a notice that you have used your full allowance. Look up the exact message in How do I fix an invalid or revoked API key?.
How to continue
- Upgrade your plan for a higher allowance, which takes effect right away. See How do I upgrade my plan?.
- Wait for the monthly reset. Your allowance refills at the start of your next month, and optimizing resumes on its own.
