Common questions

What are intelligence credits?

Credits are the currency for Merba's intelligence features — video ads, short reels, and Guardian Intelligence Advisor sessions. Sole Proprietor and Team subscriptions include 8 welcome credits when you activate. Top up anytime with a credit pack — no subscription required.

Do I need a subscription to buy credits?

No. Anyone — including Free accounts — can purchase credit top-up packs. Subscriptions give you platform features (booking, discovery, loyalty, reports) but credits are always separate.

What happens when I run out of credits?

You'll see a prompt to top up. Existing ads and sessions are unaffected — we never delete your work.

Can I upgrade or downgrade anytime?

Yes. Upgrades take effect immediately. Downgrades apply at the end of your billing cycle. No lock-in.

Is there a contract?

No contract. Cancel whenever you want. We keep your business by being worth it.

What are feature packs?

Feature packs are pre-bundled credit amounts sold at a fixed price — convenience for users who know exactly what they want. Credits work the same way however you buy them — spend them on ads, reels, or advisor sessions.
