If your plan includes lead data, there is nothing to buy — the page shows Included and the Credits item may not appear in your menu at all.
Checking Your Balance
- Select your company from the sidebar
- Go to Leads → Credits
What Things Cost
A lookup that finds nobody doesn’t cost anything — you’re charged for results, not attempts.
Keeping Costs Down
- Give enrichment strong identifiers. An email or LinkedIn URL matches far more often than a name alone, so fewer credits are spent on misses.
- Search before importing. Searching in People Search is free; importing or exporting is what costs credits.
- Import in stages. Pull 50, check they’re right, then pull the rest.
- Cap Sales Navigator searches. The maximum-leads slider is a direct cap on what a search can cost.
- Reuse saved results. Recent lookups and recent searches are free to reopen.
