Insights Credits FAQs

We’ve designed a new way of purchasing and using Insights to make it easier and more affordable for our customers to get started. Apply one or more Insights to a Topic Profile, and exchange credits and providers as your needs change – it’s that easy.
Credits are virtual currency specially designed for Insights. They provide a monthly allotment that you can use to apply Insights to your Topic Profiles. Credits expire at the end of every calendar month, whether they’re applied or not.
Talk to your Account Executive about purchasing credits. The Insights credit system is designed to scale based on needs. You’ll need to purchase enough credits to cover the mentions your Topic Profile(s) brings in per month. See the credit exchange rates.
