What payment methods are supported?

Checkout accepts major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express) through a PCI-compliant payment processor. Depending on your region, an additional local payment option may appear automatically at checkout. If a card is declined, it's almost always the issuing bank blocking the charge rather than an issue on the checkout page itself — see the payment-failure question below for what to try next. If you're specifically buying an official SuperGrok subscription at grok.com instead, payment methods are set by xAI's own billing page, not by X Imagine AI, so check there directly for their current options.

How long after purchase do credits show up?

For one-time credit packs and annual plans, credits post to your account instantly — usually within a few seconds of the checkout confirmation page loading, and almost always inside a couple of minutes at most. For monthly subscriptions, credits become available as soon as the first billing cycle is confirmed, which is effectively immediate as well. If your balance still shows zero after several minutes, refresh the account page first, since the balance display doesn't always update live without a reload. If it's still missing after that, treat it as a payment issue rather than a delay and check your email for a receipt — no receipt usually means the charge didn't actually complete.

Can I switch plans after buying, and how?

Yes. From your account/billing page, open your current plan and choose "Change Plan" or select a different card from the Pricing page while signed in. Switching between monthly subscription tiers typically applies at your next billing cycle, so you keep your current tier's benefits until then rather than losing access mid-period. Moving from a subscription to a one-time credit pack (or the reverse) doesn't cancel anything automatically — cancel the old subscription separately if you no longer want it to renew, since buying a new plan on top of an existing one doesn't replace it.

What if my payment fails or gets declined?

A decline almost always comes from the card issuer, not from the checkout page — common causes are insufficient funds, a bank's fraud filter flagging an unfamiliar online charge, or a card that blocks international or subscription-type transactions by default. Start by trying a different card or contacting your bank to authorize the charge, since many banks will approve it after a quick call. If the checkout page itself shows an error before you even reach payment, refresh and try again — that's typically a session timeout rather than a declined card. If a charge appears on your statement but credits never landed in your account, that's a support issue, not a retry issue — reach out with your payment confirmation so it can be matched to your account manually.

How does enterprise or team purchasing work?

For volume needs beyond what the standard Studio-tier credit packs cover, or for a purchase that needs to be billed to a company rather than an individual, contact support directly instead of using the standard self-serve checkout. Team and enterprise requests are typically handled with a custom credit volume, invoicing instead of card-only payment, and a single account (or managed sub-accounts) for a team to share. Response times and available terms vary, so reach out with your expected monthly volume and billing requirements up front to get an accurate quote.

How to Buy Grok Credits: Step-by-Step Guide (2026)

This tutorial is for readers who've already decided to buy and just need the exact steps — not another explanation of what credits are or what each plan costs. One thing worth knowing before you start: xAI doesn't sell Grok credits as a standalone purchase, only bundled into a recurring SuperGrok subscription. X Imagine AI (this site) sells credits directly — one-time packs or annual plans, runs on the same Aurora model behind Grok Imagine, and is where the steps below actually take place. If you haven't decided what to buy yet, use the links below instead of scrolling through this page.

Why buy here

Why Buy Your Credits on X Imagine AI

SuperGrok locks you into a recurring monthly charge just to raise your daily cap. X Imagine AI sells the credits themselves, with a purchase flow built for a one-off decision instead of an ongoing subscription.

No subscription lock-in

Buy a one-time pack and use it until it's gone — nothing to remember to cancel, no recurring charge that outlives your project.

Credits land instantly

No daily reset to wait for and no monthly cycle to sit through — a completed purchase adds credits to your account right away.

One balance, every model

The same credits generate on the Aurora model behind Grok Imagine, plus Kling, Veo, Seedance, and Gemini Imagen — no separate account or purchase per model.

The purchase flow

6 Steps to Buy Your Credits on X Imagine AI

These are the exact steps for buying credits on ximagineai.com. If you specifically want an official SuperGrok subscription from xAI instead, the flow is similar in shape: sign in to your X account, open Settings → SuperGrok, choose Lite or full SuperGrok, enter payment, and confirm — credits then appear in your Grok Imagine account automatically, tied to that recurring subscription.

Six-step checkout timeline ending with an updated AI credit balance

1
Sign In to Your X Imagine AI Account
Click "Sign In" in the top-right corner of any ximagineai.com page. Continue with your Google account or X (Twitter) account — no separate password to create. If you're not signed in when you try to buy, you'll be prompted to sign in first before checkout can start.
2
Open the X Imagine AI Pricing Page
Go to ximagineai.com/pricing from the main navigation, or click "Upgrade" / "Get Credits" from your account menu. This is where every available plan and credit pack is listed, grouped by billing type.
3
Choose Your Plan or Credit Pack
Switch between the Yearly, Monthly, and Credit Pack tabs to find the right billing shape for how you actually use credits — recurring monthly capacity, a lower annual rate, or a one-time pack with no renewal. Click the card that matches what you want, then click its "Get" button.
4
Enter Your Payment Details
You'll be redirected to a secure checkout page to enter your card details. Payment is processed by a PCI-compliant provider — card numbers are never stored on X Imagine AI's own servers.
5
Review and Confirm the Order
Double-check the plan name, credit amount, and total charge shown on the order summary before confirming. Once you click "Pay" or "Confirm," the charge is processed immediately and the order can't be edited — cancel and restart at Step 3 if anything looks wrong.
6
Verify Your Credits Landed
After payment, you're redirected back to ximagineai.com. Open your account/dashboard panel and check your credit balance — for one-time packs and annual plans, credits are added instantly; for monthly subscriptions, they're available as soon as the first billing cycle starts. Your credits are ready to spend on Grok Imagine-style generation right away — if the balance hasn't updated after a few minutes, refresh the page before assuming something went wrong.
