A credit is a piece of work, not a request: rasterizing a PDF page costs more than rendering a label, and laying out an HTML page in a browser costs more again, so they are priced apart.
| 1 credit | A label rendered to PNG |
| 1 credit | A label a virtual printer captures |
| 1 credit | A ZPL transform: compose, stamp, void, Unicode, decompile |
| 2 credits | A PDF or image page converted to ZPL |
| 3 credits | An HTML page laid out in the browser |
Status checks, job listings, printer management and decoding a printer's status response are free on every plan. Quotas are soft: you'll get an email, not a hard cut-off mid-shift.
Every printer answers on the
shared port, where each job names the printer it is for: one line inside the label, a ZPL
comment carrying the printer's token. It costs nothing in a script or a CI job, and the label
still starts with ^XA, so a client that builds and checks its own ZPL is happy.
What a paid plan adds is printers on a TCP port of their own: each plan includes a few, and a printer with one can be pointed at by anything that prints to a network printer, a driver, an ERP, a label queue you did not write, with nothing changed at your end. That is the case naming cannot cover, because software you do not control will not add the line. Printers past your plan's allowance keep working on the shared port.
One developer, answering email and the contact form. Free has the guides and the public channels; Starter aims to reply within three business days, Pro ahead of the queue within one. Those are targets rather than a service level agreement, and they cover Stripy Horse itself rather than your own code, your printers or your network. The terms spell it out.
Cancel any time from your account; the plan runs to the end of the month you paid for, then drops to free. If a paid plan did not work out, ask within 14 days of upgrading and that month is refunded in full. The terms spell it out.
