Pay as you go: social media without a subscription

Monthly plans are built for people who post every week. Plenty of businesses don't: a clinic with one offer a month, a shop that posts around launches, a restaurant that only needs Ramadan and Eid. For them a subscription is money spent on months they don't use.

That is why Intilq has no Free plan anymore. Every account without a plan is pay as you go.

How it works

• 136 free credits every month. That covers two campaigns, eight posts and six designed graphics. They renew each month; unused free credits don't carry over.
• Top up when you need more. $10 buys 200 credits, $25 buys 515, $50 buys 1,060 and $100 buys 2,200. Bought credits never expire, and free credits are always spent first.
• Pay per thing you make. One credit is $0.05. Writing a post is 3 credits, a designed graphic 9, a video 36, and planning a campaign 22.

A ten-post campaign with a graphic on every post comes to 142 credits, about $7.10.

Publishing without a plan

Writing and designing work straight away. To connect your social accounts and have Intilq publish for you, get a channels pass: 30 days for 100 credits. Each post it publishes then costs one credit. Without the pass you can still download everything and post it yourself.

Exports from a pay-as-you-go account carry a small Intilq watermark on the images. Removing it costs 20 credits per campaign, once.

When a plan is the better deal

If you post every week, a plan costs less for the same work. Solo is $24 a month and includes 45 posts, 30 designed graphics and 3 videos, plus publishing to every channel. Pro is free for 3 days, with no card.

Pay as you go is priced so a plan always wins for regular posting. That's deliberate: it's there for the months and the businesses that don't need one.

Nothing changes if you're on a plan

Plans keep their monthly allowances. If you go past them, credits cover the rest instead of stopping your campaign.
