# Plans and billing

> Kineto is a subscription-based service with various payment plans. An active subscription is required to create and deploy apps, and credits are necessary for prompting and building apps.  Every new user gets the Free plan, a one-time bonus of 50 free credits which are valid for one month, and the ability to publish one project.

### Credits Usage and Lifetime

Credits are used for chatting with the AI and building your applications.

* **Standard Credits** have a two-month lifespan from the date of issue.
* **Free plan Credits** last for one month.

If you reach the credit limit of your plan, you can wait for the next monthly update or upgrade your plan.

An active subscription is required to publish every app you’ve created. If your subscription is canceled, all published projects will be unpublished, which means the apps will be available for you, but not for other users. If a viable subscription is not reactivated for a period of twelve months, all associated projects will be deleted.

Credits are valid for two months from the date they are accrued, meaning they carry over to the following month. They will be spent in the second month first.

### Managing Your Subscription

You have full control over your subscription and payment methods. Simply click the **"Manage subscription"** button in the menu to access the subscription management page, where you can also cancel your subscription if needed.
