Understanding HubSpot's New Credit System: A Breakdown of the Changes

HubSpot has recently rolled out a new credit system, transitioning from "Breeze credits" to "HubSpot credits." This change has left some users with questions, but we're here to clear things up. The good news is that this new system offers more value for your money. To help you understand the conversion, we've developed a Breeze Credits to HubSpot Credit Conversion Calculator.

The Old vs. The New: A Quick Comparison

At first glance, the new system might seem more expensive. For instance, enriching a company record used to cost one Breeze credit, and now it costs ten HubSpot credits. However, a closer look reveals a significant net saving. While the number of credits required has increased, the cost per credit has decreased, making your money go further.

The Conversion Explained

Let's break down the conversion with an example. Previously, one Breeze credit cost about 30 cents. With the new system, ten HubSpot credits cost only 10 cents. This means you're getting more for your money. Essentially, one HubSpot credit is equivalent to one penny. So, while it may seem like you're using more credits, the overall cost is lower.

Here’s a more detailed breakdown:

• Breeze Credits: If you had 100 Breeze credits, it would cost you $30 a month, giving you 100 possible enrichments.
• HubSpot Credits: That same $30 is converted to the new system. You'll receive 3,000 HubSpot credits, and if you have a Pro Hub, you'll get an additional 3,000 free credits. This gives you a total of 6,000 credits, allowing for 600 possible enrichments.

For the same monthly cost, you now have access to 600 enrichments, a significant increase from the previous 100.

What's New with HubSpot Credits?

The new HubSpot credits can be used for more than just record enrichment. Here are some of the new functionalities available:

• AI Customer Agent: This feature costs 100 credits per conversation, which is about $1.
• Smart Fields: Currently in beta, this feature costs 10 credits per property per record, which is about 10 cents.

It's important to be mindful of your credit usage, especially with automatic enrichment and smart fields, as these can quickly use up your credits.

Free Credits with Your HubSpot Plan

HubSpot offers free credits with its different plans:

• Starter: 500 credits
• Pro: 3,000 credits
• Enterprise: 5,000 credits

These free credits give you a head start in using the new features and functionalities.

Conclusion

The transition to HubSpot Credits is a positive change for users. You're getting more value for your money and access to new and improved features. While the new system may take some getting used to, the benefits are clear.
