Nomiq Billing, Plans, and Metered API Usage Pricing

Nomiq offers three subscription tiers designed to grow with you—from a solo founder validating a single idea to a full-service agency managing dozens of client brands simultaneously. Your workspace subscription covers seat access and feature unlocks, while API usage is metered separately so you only pay for what you generate through the API. Only workspace Admins can view or change billing settings.

Free gives you everything you need to generate and explore a single brand identity. You cannot export high-resolution files or create more than one active project, but the full generation engine is available. Pro removes project and export limits, giving individual founders and small teams the ability to manage multiple brands and hand off production-ready assets to developers or printers. Agency adds custom templates and client folders for teams that need a repeatable, structured delivery workflow, plus priority queue access on the API so generation latency stays low under heavy workload.

API Metering

If you call the Nomiq API directly—for example, to embed brand generation into your own product—your API usage is tracked separately from your workspace subscription and billed as a metered overage at the end of each billing cycle.

Free tier: 100 included API generations per calendar month at no charge.
Pro tier: 500 included API generations per calendar month.
Agency tier: 2,000 included API generations per calendar month.
Overage rate: $0.02 per generation beyond your plan’s included amount, for all tiers.

To avoid unexpected charges, set a hard monthly cap in the Billing dashboard. When your workspace reaches the cap, the API returns a 429 quota_exceeded error until the next billing cycle begins or you raise the cap manually.

# Example: API response when the monthly hard cap is reached
HTTP/1.1 429 Too Many Requests
{
  "error": "quota_exceeded",
  "message": "Monthly API generation cap reached. Adjust your cap in Billing settings.",
  "reset_at": "2024-09-01T00:00:00Z"
}

Upgrading to Pro

Open Billing settings

Click your workspace name in the top-left corner of the dashboard and select Settings > Billing. This tab is visible only to workspace Admins.

Choose a billing cycle

Under Change Plan, select Pro. Toggle between Monthly and Annual billing—annual billing saves 20% compared to the monthly rate.

Enter payment details

Click Upgrade to Pro. A Stripe-hosted payment form appears. Enter your credit card number, expiry date, CVC, and billing address. Nomiq never stores raw card data—all payment information is handled by Stripe.

Confirm the upgrade

Click Confirm Payment. Stripe processes the charge and returns a confirmation. Your workspace limits—unlimited projects, high-resolution exports, and additional Editor seats—are unlocked instantly. You receive a receipt by email.

Downgrading or Cancelling

To downgrade from Pro to Free, go to Settings > Billing and click Downgrade Plan. Your Pro features remain active until the end of the current billing period. At that point, if you have more than one active project, all projects beyond the first are archived automatically—no data is deleted, but they become read-only until you re-upgrade. To cancel your subscription entirely, click Cancel Subscription from the same page. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the billing period.

Troubleshooting

My credit card failed but I see a pending charge on my statement.

Your bank placed a temporary authorization hold when Nomiq submitted the charge. If your bank ultimately declined the transaction—commonly due to a billing address or zip code mismatch—the hold drops automatically within 3–5 business days. To resolve it, go to Settings > Billing > Payment Method, click Update Card, and re-enter your card details making sure the billing address matches exactly what your bank has on file. Then click Retry Payment.

I cannot see the Billing tab in Settings.

The Billing tab is visible only to workspace Admins. If you are logged in as an Editor or Viewer, the tab does not appear. Ask the workspace Admin—typically the account owner or founder—to either handle the billing change directly or promote you to Admin if you need ongoing billing access.

My API overage charges are higher than expected.

Check your usage breakdown by going to Settings > Billing > API Usage. The graph shows daily generation counts broken down by API key. If you see unexpected spikes, an API key may have been leaked or a background job may be retrying failed requests in a loop. Rotate the affected key immediately from Settings > Security > API Keys and set a lower hard cap while you investigate.
