A-Leads uses a credit-based system to ensure you only pay for real, verified, actionable leads. Instead of buying large, static lists, you spend credits only when we successfully deliver verified data.

πŸ”‘ How Credits Work

  • 1 Credit = 1 Verified Email
  • 1 Mobile Number = 15 Credits
  • Credits are deducted only when data passes verification. Invalid or duplicate leads don’t use any credits.

This system ensures you never pay for bad data, and you always get value from the leads you unlock.

πŸ“© Email Credits

Each time you unlock a verified business email, 1 email credit is deducted.

Features:

  • Triple-verified in real-time (SMTP, syntax, and catch-all detection)
  • <1% bounce rate guarantee
  • Deducted only when verified

Example:

  • Boost Plan β†’ 12,000 email credits/month
  • Unlock 200 valid emails β†’ 200 credits used
  • Attempt to unlock 10 emails, 2 invalid β†’ only 8 credits used βœ… Total deducted = 208 credits

πŸ“± Mobile Number Credits

Mobile numbers are premium data and counted separately. Each verified number costs 15 email credits, reflecting the higher value of mobile contact data.

Features:

  • Carrier validation ensures numbers are active
  • Deducted only on successful verification
  • Invalid or duplicate numbers don’t use credits

Example:

  • Boost Plan β†’ 12,000 email credits/month
  • Unlock 10 mobile numbers β†’ 10 Γ— 15 = 150 email credits used
  • If 2 numbers fail verification β†’ only 120 credits deducted

πŸ’‘ Tip: Treat mobile numbers as high-value leads since each costs multiple credits. Plan your campaigns accordingly.

πŸ”„ Do Credits Roll Over?

Yes! Unlike most platforms, unused credits automatically roll over to the next month as long as your subscription is active.

Example:

  • Start month with 12,000 credits
  • Use 7,500 β†’ 4,500 roll over
  • Next month, Boost Plan gives 12,000 new credits β†’ total available = 16,500

βœ… Big USP: You never lose credits you’ve already paid for.

πŸ’³ When Are Credits Deducted?

Credits are used when you:

  1. Unlock a verified email β†’ 1 email credit
  2. Unlock a verified mobile number β†’ 15 email credits
  3. Export leads to CSV or HubSpot
  4. Enrich existing contacts in real-time

❌ No credits are deducted if:

  • Data is invalid
  • Duplicate leads
  • Verification fails

πŸ“Š Example: Credits in Action

Plan: Boost β†’ 12,000 email credits

  • Unlock 200 emails β†’ 200 credits
  • Unlock 5 mobile numbers β†’ 5 Γ— 15 = 75 credits
  • Attempt 10 emails, 2 invalid β†’ 8 credits

βœ… Total credits used: 283βœ… Remaining: 11,717

πŸ›‘ Fair-Use Principles

  • No double-charging: Duplicates never consume credits
  • No payment for bad data: Only verified leads cost credits
  • Flexible growth: Upgrade or downgrade anytime; credits always roll over

πŸš€ Key Takeaway

Credits make sure you pay only for verified, actionable leads. With mobile numbers treated as premium data, real-time verification, and unlimited rollover, every credit you buy is fully protected and maximized.
