Understanding Tokens

Tokens control how many Beat Requests you can create during the current monthly cycle. Your plan sets the limit, and the request duration decides how many tokens are spent.

​

How Tokens Work

Unused tokens do not roll forward forever. BeatPass refreshes your balance on the monthly cycle and shows a reset date in the token status area.

Token Allowance by Plan

The number of tokens you receive depends on your BeatPass subscription:

Checking Your Token Balance

You can see your current token balance in several places:

1. Beat Requests Section — Your balance is displayed prominently
2. Before Creating a Request — Shows tokens remaining
3. After Creating a Request — Updated balance confirmation

Your token status includes:

• Current tokens — How many you have right now
• Monthly limit — Your total allowance for the month
• Used this month — How many you’ve already used
• Reset date — When your tokens will refresh
• Days until reset — How much time is left in the current cycle

​

Using Tokens

​

When Tokens Are Consumed

A token is used when you:

• Successfully submit a beat request
• Renew an eligible expired request

​

When Tokens Are NOT Used

Tokens are not consumed when you:

• Browse other people’s requests
• Monitor request counts or notifications
• Start creating a request but don’t submit

​

Getting Tokens Back (Refunds)

You can get tokens refunded by deleting your request:

1. Go to your active requests
2. Delete a request you no longer need
3. BeatPass refunds as many tokens as it can without pushing you above your plan limit

The refund amount matches the original cost:

• 24h request — 1 token refunded
• 48h request — Up to 2 tokens refunded
• 72h request — Up to 3 tokens refunded

​

Refund Conditions

​

Staying Under the Cap

• You can never hold more tokens than your plan’s monthly allowance (e.g., a 3-token plan will never show 4 tokens)
• Refunds stop once your balance reaches that limit, even if multiple requests are deleted
• Plan changes reset the balance to the new plan limit immediately

​

Token Reset Cycle

BeatPass refreshes tokens on a monthly cycle:

​

Important Dates

• Reset date — Shown in your token status
• Days until reset — Also shown in the same status area
• Unused tokens — Lost at reset (don’t carry over)

---

​

Running Out of Tokens

If your token balance reaches zero:

1. You cannot create new requests until tokens reset
2. Existing requests continue as normal
3. You can still receive submissions on active requests
4. Options to get more:
   • Wait for monthly reset
   • Change to a plan with a higher token allowance
   • Delete an existing request (if below cap)

​

What You See

When out of tokens, you’ll see a message like:

“You’ve used all your tokens for this month. Your tokens will reset on [date].”

For free users:

“You’ve used all your tokens for this month. Upgrade to get more tokens or wait until next month.”

Upgrading for More Tokens

If your current token limit is too small for how often you use Beat Requests:

1. Click your profile avatar → Billing
2. Use Change plan to review your options
3. Pick a plan with a higher Beat Request allowance
4. After the change takes effect, BeatPass resets your token balance to the new plan limit
