To support more powerful AI capabilities and provide higher quality outputs for advanced tasks, Hostinger Horizons uses a dynamic credit model. This approach ensures you are charged accurately based on the exact amount of work the AI performs.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>How dynamic credits work<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hostinger Horizons calculates credit usage dynamically based on the computing resources and processing power required for your specific request.<\/span><\/p><ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Fractional credit deduction:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Credit usage is precise and calculated up to two decimal places (for example, <\/span><b>0.12<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> or <\/span><b>2.45<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> credits). You will only pay for the exact volume of work the AI performs to generate your response.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Resource-based charging:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Simple, short questions consume significantly fewer credits. Advanced requests that require heavy computation, deep analysis, or extensive code generation naturally utilize a higher share of credits.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Better results through step-by-step requests:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Splitting large, complex projects into smaller, focused prompts allows the AI to dedicate its full focus to one piece of the puzzle at a time. This step-by-step approach significantly increases the accuracy of the generated code and provides the highest quality outcomes.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol><p>You can review how many credits were used by hovering over the icon of the Horizons response:<br>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-11722 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-17-at-11.06.36.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"564\" height=\"283\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-17-at-11.06.36.png 564w, https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-17-at-11.06.36-300x151.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 564px) 100vw, 564px\" \/><\/p><p><b>Notes<\/b><\/p><ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Your updated credit balance will appear automatically in the interface immediately after each AI response.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn how the Hostinger Horizons dynamic credit system accurately calculates costs for advanced AI tasks<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":591,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"include_on_kodee":true,"footnotes":""},"categories":[293],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11031","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-hostinger-horizons"],"hreflangs":[{"locale":"en-US","link":"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/hostinger-horizons-understanding-dynamic-credits","default":1}],"include_on_kodee":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11031","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/591"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11031"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11031\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11723,"href":"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11031\/revisions\/11723"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11031"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11031"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hostinger.com\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11031"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
