Credits and top-ups
One credit is one PDF file, used when you run a take-off on it. Your first five drawings are free. To buy more, email us. Credits are paid for by bank transfer.
How credits work
- One credit is one PDF file, however many sheets it has.
- A credit is used when a run starts on a drawing. Uploading drawings, reading results and downloading cost nothing.
- A drawing set to Not in scope in the Run take-off box is not read, and uses no credit.
- If a drawing fails and no take-off comes out of it, its credit goes back to your balance by itself. A take-off you disagree with has not failed.
- Credits last 24 months from the day you buy them.
- Your balance is in the top bar of the app. At two credits or fewer a notice appears. At none, take-offs pause until you top up, and everything already measured stays where it is.
How to top up
- Choose Buy more beside your balance, or Buy credits on the notice. Either one opens an email to contact@teastra.com, or you can write to that address yourself.
- Say roughly how many drawings you take off, and the kind of work they are. You will get the price for that volume.
- Pay by bank transfer to our business bank account. There is no card payment on this site.
- The credits are added to your account once the payment has cleared.
Good to know
- We will never ask you to pay any other account. If payment details that look like ours name a different account, contact us before you pay.
- Unused credits are not refunded when you stop using the Estimator or close your account, except in the cases clause 8.4 of the Terms sets out.
