Credits & Billing

Every time you run a job on Rowan, you spend credits. One credit is one minute of computational time. Calculations and workflows will always show the number of credits they cost in the "Overview" or "Info" tab.


Weekly Free Credits

In addition to the credits on signup, free tier users get 20 credits per week. Note that these credits do not roll over if not used.


Check Your Credit Balance

You can check your credit balance in a few places, including:

  • by clicking the "Account" icon (top right corner)
  • navigating to the credits & billing page ("Account" [top right corner] > "Credits & Billing")

Configure Credit Warnings and Limits

You can set up a credit balance warning on your account page ("Account" [top right corner] > "Account").

If you pass your credit balance warning threshold, Rowan will let you know in two ways:

  1. You'll get an email from Rowan alerting you.
  2. When you log into Rowan, an alert box will pop up in the bottom right of your screen.

Purchase More Credits

When your credit balance reaches 0, you won't be able to run any new jobs. (We're working on an auto-recharge feature to keep your credit balance topped up.)

To purchase more credits, navigate to the credits & billing page ("Account" > "Credits & Billing") and navigate to the "Purchase Credits" section

Your billing history will be saved, and you can quickly sort through your past transactions on the transactions page.
