How to claim your monthly Google Cloud credits: $10 for AI Pro, $100 for Ultra
gaganghotra_ · x · 2026-09-22
Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers get monthly Google Cloud credits ($10/month for Pro, $100/month for Ultra) usable on Vertex AI, Firebase and more. How to claim them:
- Check your benefits page with your subscribed account.
- Create a Cloud Billing account, then apply the credits to it from the benefits page.
- In AI Studio, use a project linked to that billing account and create an API key for Gemini API usage.
Check billing before your first call—prepay requires an initial top-up, and usage beyond the credits costs real money, so start small.
