Welcome Credits

When you verify your phone number on Rival, $10 in Welcome Credits is added to your Run Balance. The credit is non-expirable and usable immediately for any tool or agent run.

What Welcome Credits cover

Welcome Credits land in your Run Balance (the execution quota) - not your Wallet. You can use them to:

  • Run any tool or agent on the marketplace
  • Test tools and agents you’re building
  • Try paid tools without adding a payment method first

Each execution debits your Run Balance like any other run.

How to claim

  1. Sign in to cortexone.rival.io
  2. Open your account settings and add your phone number
  3. Enter the one-time passcode (OTP) sent via SMS
  4. The $10 is added to Run Balance automatically

A phone number can only be verified by one account.

Where it appears

  • The Run Balance card on the Billing Overview reflects the credit immediately
  • The Transactions tab shows an entry labeled Welcome Credits - Account Created

What verification also unlocks

Phone verification also makes you eligible for Refer & Earn.

After Welcome Credits run out

Once your Welcome Credits are spent and your Run Balance reaches zero, new runs are blocked with a 402 Payment Required response. To keep running:

  • Top Up your Run Balance from the Overview
  • Upgrade your plan for a recurring monthly allotment

See Run Balance for the full breakdown.
