# How do I buy credits?

> How do I buy credits? In Tandem's Settings → Billing, select Buy credits, pick a pack or a custom amount, and pay through Stripe.

You can buy credits on any plan, and purchased credits never expire.

1. **Open Billing**

   Select your name in the sidebar, then `Billing`.

2. **Select Buy credits**

   It's next to `Purchased credits`.

3. **Choose an amount**

   Pick one of the packs, or enter a `Custom amount`. The total shows before you pay.

4. **Pay**

   Select `Pay` and finish in Stripe. When you come back to `Billing`, the credits are added to your purchased credits.

If you run out mid-task, the `Buy credits` button on the out-of-credits banner opens the same window. Job ads use purchased credits only, so buy credits before you start advertising.
