You can buy credits without a subscription. The standard price is $0.01 per credit for supported qBraid-billed resources. Provider-funded jobs, such as Open Quantum, use the linked provider account’s credits.

Buying credits is only available in your qBraid Default workspace (the default). If you’re working inside an organization, the Buy credits section is hidden and you’ll see a Request credits button instead. Organization administrators buy credits for the team from Organizations > Credits.

Open the workspace switcher in the top-left of the dashboard and select qBraid Default.

The section sits below the Credits Overview card.

After payment, return to the wallet and wait for checkout confirmation. Refresh the wallet if the balance has not updated.

Outstanding balance

An Outstanding Balance banner shows unpaid compute charges separately from the wallet balance. Credit purchases and transfers can settle that debt. After checkout, check both the debt and the available wallet balance.
