How does usage minutes and credits work in OneTake?

Your account includes several types of usage limits depending on your subscription plan. These limits determine how much video you can process, how much translation time you have, and how many shorts or edited outputs you can generate within each billing period.

All usage balances automatically refresh every month based on your plan.


Types of usage in your account


1. Video Editing Minutes

These minutes are used whenever you edit or process a video through OneTake.

Your activity log will show entries like:

  • “Video Edited: -26m”
  • “Video Editing Minutes: +40m” (from bonuses)

These minutes reset monthly.


2. Translation Minutes

These minutes apply when you translate or dub a video into another language.

Your translation panel may show:

  • A specific amount of available translation minutes (for example, 2 hours)
  • “Unlimited translations available” if your plan includes unrestricted text-based translation

Both are part of your plan and refresh each month.


3. Shorts Credits or Edited Video Credits

Some plans include dedicated credits for generating shorts or certain edited outputs.

You may see these listed under Credit Activity as:

  • “shortsCredits”
  • “monthlyEditedVideoCredits”

These also refresh monthly and do not carry over.


What happens if you run out of usage?

If you reach zero on any category:

  • You can continue creating new projects normally.
  • You can continue working inside the editor.
  • Only the specific feature tied to the depleted balance will pause until your usage refreshes.

Examples:

  • If your Video Editing Minutes reach zero, you won’t be able to process new video edits until the next cycle.
  • If your Translation Minutes are used up, you won’t be able to translate new videos until your minutes refresh.
  • Shorts or edited-video credits work the same way.

Your account remains active, and no features outside that specific usage type are restricted.


When does usage refresh?

All your usage balances refresh automatically each month, based on the date your billing cycle renews.

You do not need to request a reset and unused minutes or credits do not roll over.
