Questions

What happens when the allowance runs out?

Nothing stops mid-sentence. Everything already translated stays readable; only new jobs wait for next month, a credit pack or an upgrade.

A credit pack or a monthly plan?

A pack if you translate now and then — you spend what you spend. A plan if you translate every month: the same money goes further, and it raises the television limit.

What does “concurrent” mean?

How many televisions can show captions at the same moment. Two paired with one concurrent means both can be used, but not at once. Going over does not error — it offers you the plan that fits.

Where do I pay?

On the web, through Creem as merchant of record. The television takes no payment; it only tells you what is left.
