Confused About Firefly Credit Usage — Can Anyone Explain

Hi everyone,

I recently purchased the additional 2000 generative credits because I had already used up the 250 credits included in my Photography Plan. However, I noticed that after performing only about 20 small edits in Photoshop (like removing a person, expanding a canvas, or cleaning up objects), over 500 credits were deducted in less than 30 minutes.

Later, I kept using Generative Fill, but credits were no longer being deducted—even though I continued editing.

This left me confused:

  • How many credits are used per action?

  • Is there a way to check a detailed breakdown or usage history of credits?

  • Could it be a bug or normal behavior?

I would appreciate if someone from Adobe or another user could clarify this. Thanks in advance!

See this for credit inclusions in each package:

This for what credits are used:

See this for what the Firefly plan contains. Note the reference to unlimited generative fill in the standard plan.
