Question 1

Can I start using ScraperFly for free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. ScraperFly includes free credits so developers can test real public targets, response formats, and request controls before paying.

Question 2

Do I have to subscribe before testing?

Accepted Answer

No. ScraperFly supports pay-as-you-go credits, so a small test or uneven project does not have to start as a monthly subscription.

Question 3

What are monthly credit plans for?

Accepted Answer

Monthly credit plans are best for recurring scraping workloads where request volume is predictable and the team wants credits refreshed every month.

Question 4

Do unused monthly credits roll over?

Accepted Answer

ScraperFly monthly plans are designed with credit rollover to the next month, helping teams avoid losing useful allowance when volume varies.

Question 5

How should I choose between pay as you go and monthly credits?

Accepted Answer

Use pay as you go for experiments, one-off projects, or uneven volume. Use monthly credits when the workflow is proven and recurring volume is easier to plan.

Question 6

Which request controls affect credit usage?

Accepted Answer

Simple fetches are lighter, while browser rendering, premium routing, premium rendering, visual output, and target-specific controls can make a request heavier.
