What happens to my credits if an AI video fails?

The short answer

You get them back. AITube holds the credits when a clip starts, and if the provider fails it retries, switching to the same model on a backup provider where one exists. If the clip still doesn't finish, the credits return to your balance automatically. You're charged only for clips that finish.

Check a model before you spend

The model status page shows every video model's availability, its success rate over the last week and its typical render time, from the same numbers that route your jobs.

Is that unusual?

No, and it shouldn't be. Higgsfield also says that credits for failed generations come back automatically. What differs is what comes before the job: AITube shows the exact price in credits before you generate, and the status page shows how each model has been doing.

What does Auto do when a model fails?

On Auto, AITube can switch to another model that costs no more than the price it held for your clip.
