Pricing - what's the difference between credits and subscription

Learn the difference between Credits and Subscription plans to choose the best fit for your organization.

Updated this week

Key Difference:

The main difference between Credits and Subscription is that Subscription is based on recurring monthly payments, while Credits are a one-time purchase. Subscription offers several advantages, including automated Google Workspace Data Sync and unlimited signature adjustments already covered by the regular payment.

Subscription:

  • Subscription requires regular monthly payments based on the number of users you wish to have included in the subscription.

  • It includes automated Google Workspace Data Sync, which enables features like adding marketing content and making signature changes without incurring extra costs.

  • All signature adjustments are covered within the subscription fee.

  • Subscription is ideal for organizations that frequently use signatures for communication and marketing purposes.

  • Another key benefit of Subscription is that it effectively prevents users from making unauthorized changes to their signatures. Any modifications are reverted upon synchronization, ensuring consistent branding.

Credits:

  • Credits are a good option for users who want to set up their signatures and maintain them for an extended period without frequent changes.

  • You purchase Credits for your SignatureSatori account and spend them when setting up signatures, either by applying a new one or updating an existing signature.

  • The Credits do not expire and can be spent anytime after the purchase.

  • Credits are only consumed when applying a new signature or making changes to an existing one. There are no recurring or additional charges.

Example:

  • Setting up 20 signatures requires 20 Credits.

  • If a new person joins your team and you want to assign them a signature, you’ll need to use 1 Credit.

  • The same applies when updating an existing user’s signature—regardless of how many details you change (e.g., job title, phone number), 1 Credit is required to apply the updated signature.

Note:

While daily Google Workspace Data Sync is available with Credits, its functionality is severely limited compared to a Subscription.

Combining Credits and Subscriptions:

  • Many organizations find a hybrid approach beneficial. They might purchase a Subscription for a smaller group of users, such as marketing or external communications teams, while using Credits for the rest of their staff.

Which Option is Right for You?

  • Choose a Subscription if: You anticipate frequent signature updates, need automated Google Workspace Data Sync for marketing content, and want to maintain consistent branding by preventing unauthorized signature changes.

  • Choose Credits if: You need to set up signatures that will remain relatively static for an extended period and don't require the advanced features of automated Google Workspace Data Sync.
