Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Some tools sell credit packs that stay in your balance until you use them, rather than monthly allowances that reset. BetterVideo Create works this way: you buy credits once, they never expire, and there's no subscription. Always read the expiry line before you buy from any provider.
Missing items are often failed jobs that were removed, or a display delay. Check filters and archived items, then log out and in. If a paid job vanished, contact support with the date and time and ask for the credits back. Download finished clips quickly so you aren't relying on history.
Dedicated face-restoration models such as GFPGAN rebuild the face frame by frame and usually beat general upscalers on eyes and skin. BetterVideo offers face restoration in its enhancement API. Whatever you pick, compare results on one of your own clips first.
No tool can honestly be named best for everyone, because accuracy depends on the type of shot. Test two or three tools with the same five prompts from your real project and count the usable results. Choose on cost per usable clip, not on promised quality.
Ask support for the credits back, quoting the prompt, the time and a short explanation that it was a false flag. Policies differ, so check the current terms. Reword the prompt in neutral terms to avoid a repeat. Providers that refund on moderation errors are worth preferring.
