Frequently asked questions

• How do credits work?

  Credits work like currency on our platform and are used for AI tools and features—not for downloading content. Each AI tool has a different cost, which you can check in the table. You can use your credits however you like across different tools.

  If you’re on an annual plan, you get all your credits upfront, and they reset every year. If you’re on a monthly plan, credits reset every month.

  Heads up: Unused credits don’t roll over to the next month. But if you upgrade your Premium plan to Premium+, or switch from a monthly to an annual subscription, your unused credits will carry over.

• Do downloading limits apply to the designs I create?

  No. Downloading limits only apply to the stock content offered by Freepik, whether it’s made by us or our contributors. If you’re on a Free plan, you get 10 downloads a day for stock content. But if you’re on a Premium or Premium+ plan, you have unlimited downloads. You can always download your own creations and projects without any limits.

• Is my subscription automatically renewed?

  Yes, all paid subscriptions automatically renew either monthly or annually, depending on your billing period. You can cancel your subscription anytime, but you'll still enjoy all your plan's benefits and credits until the end of your billing period.

  If you have an annual plan, you can also pause your subscription for up to 90 days (alternating or consecutive) as many times as you need. While paused, your benefits and credits will be on hold, and you'll switch to a Free plan. As soon as you resume your subscription, your billing date will shift accordingly, and all your benefits will be back.

• What does “no attribution” mean?

  “No attribution” means you can use any downloaded stock content without needing to credit the original creator (Freepik or one of our contributors). This gives you the freedom to use the material hassle-free, without having to mention where it came from. Just be sure to follow our License Agreement when using our content. If you need to attribute, then follow our Attribution guide.

  Importantly, attribution never applies to the content you design or edit, even when using our tools, editable templates, or mockups.

• What’s the difference between Premium stock content and Free stock content?

  Premium content stands out in several ways compared to free content. It includes a broader variety of exclusive, high-quality assets that aren't available in the free collection—unique graphics, templates, mockups, or assets specifically crafted for Premium users. Accessible only through a Premium or Premium+ plan, it ensures your creations remain unique. Premium content is only accessible through Premium and Premium+ plans, so it requires no attribution, offering greater flexibility for users creating professional projects.

• How many generations do I have per tool or microtool?

  The number of generations you get per tool or microtool varies. Each tool consumes a different amount of credits per generation, and the outcomes can vary as well, yielding anywhere from one to four or even more generated images each time.

  You can see detailed information about credit costs for each AI tool in the table above. Credits work like currency, and they’re exclusively used for AI tools and features—not for downloading content. You have the flexibility to allocate your credits across different tools according to your needs.

• How can I purchase extra credits?

  To purchase extra credits, you must be a Premium+ user on a monthly or annual plan. Extra credits expire 3 years after purchase and are only used once monthly credits are depleted. Extra credits require an active paid subscription; if you cancel or pause your plan, your extra credits will be on hold.

  If you downgrade to a Premium or Essential subscription, you will still be able to use your extra credits, but you won’t be able to purchase more until you upgrade back to Premium+.

• Can I use AI-generated images for commercial purposes?

  Yes, you can use AI-generated images for personal or professional purposes, including commercial projects, provided they comply with applicable laws and respect third-party rights, such as identity, creative ownership, trademarks, and intellectual property. However, it is your responsibility to ensure the images do not infringe any third-party rights and comply with the applicable regulations.

  We strongly recommend obtaining professional legal advice to confirm that the AI-generated images comply with any applicable laws in your jurisdiction and are free of any issues, particularly if they will be used in branding, merchandising, or other derivative works. Keep in mind that copyright laws for AI-generated content vary by country, and any legal consequences arising from the use of infringing images will fall under your sole responsibility.
