Quick answer

## The short version

Choose by the credits still needed and the upfront price, after checking your existing balance and eligible offers. Archive currently supplies 100 credits for £11; Pro supplies 150 for £14. Pro has a lower nominal cost per credit, but the additional purchase only helps when you can use the allowance.

## Define this purchase decision

The pack names are volume choices, not different promises of face accuracy. The public pricing page lists the same restoration modes, comparisons and downloads for both packs. Decide how many successful operations remain in your project before choosing a larger allowance. A family archive with many unselected files is not automatically a 150-restoration project.

Count approved scope separately from possible future work. Include any separate enlargements and bounded additional attempts, subtract the account's displayed balance, then compare the remaining need with the available packs. You may see an eligible introductory offer in your account; check it rather than assuming the two public packs are your only options.

## Worked decision example

Worked example: an account has eight credits and a reviewed plan for ninety successful operations. Its shortfall is 90 − 8 = 82. Archive supplies enough, costing £11 with eighteen purchased credits beyond that shortfall. Pro also supplies enough, costing £14 with sixty-eight beyond it. Pro's lower unit figure does not change the fact that this scoped project can finish with the lower upfront purchase.

For a separate account with no balance and a 120-operation plan, one Archive pack is short by twenty. One Pro pack covers the plan at £14. Two Archive packs would supply 200 for £22 if the catalog remains as listed. These comparisons assume no other offer and no change in scope; they are arithmetic examples, not checkout reservations.

## Complete the decision worksheet

- Record the current GBP checkout price, credited quantity and any eligibility condition. Do not infer the charge from a remembered screenshot or a pack name.
- Calculate £11 ÷ 100 = £0.11 nominally per Archive credit and £14 ÷ 150 ≈ £0.0933 per Pro credit. Those ratios describe full allowance use, not cost per accepted photograph.
- Write the finishable scope, current balance and shortfall. Mark unconfirmed future albums separately so they cannot silently justify a bigger purchase.
- Confirm that you can review and save the next batches. Having more non-expiring credits does not extend the ten-day storage window for processed photos.

## Resolve the buyer objections

What if a bigger pack is only £3 more? The difference can be reasonable when fifty additional credits fit a real project. It can be unnecessary when the next forty photos have not been located, scanned or approved. Choose with the same care as any other small purchase: quantity and cash paid are separate comparisons.

What if the first batch disappoints? A larger pack does not change the restoration method for a difficult face. Stop the remaining scope, review the source and consider a controlled manual edit. Credits do not expire under the current FAQ, but the refund policy says unused credits are not eligible for cash refunds.

## Keep a useful decision record

Make a small comparison table on paper with three rows: approved shortfall, available quantity and upfront price. Include the resulting unused balance as a quantity rather than as a discount. For a 100-credit shortfall, Archive is exactly enough under the listed catalog, while Pro leaves fifty additional credits at a £3 higher payment. For a 101-credit shortfall, one Archive is insufficient; the extra operation changes the decision unless existing balance or an eligible account offer covers it. Do not add guessed sales, currency-conversion savings or unverified taxes to the table. Recheck the actual checkout when you are ready, because this dated comparison cannot freeze the catalog.

## Choose the next action

Open pricing and then the account checkout to confirm the current offer. Select Archive when it covers the approved shortfall at the smaller payment; select Pro when its extra allowance avoids another foreseeable purchase. Write down the selected quantity so you can reconcile the credited balance after payment.

If neither pack fits a still-uncertain project, finish a pilot first. Use the result to approve a smaller, specific scope. This page compares supported pack quantities and costs; it does not rank restoration outcomes or claim one pack processes your photographs more faithfully.

## FAQs

Does Pro produce better restorations than Archive?

The public pricing page lists the same included restoration features. The compared difference here is credit quantity and upfront price.

Are the listed amounts in my local currency?

The public prices are GBP. Your payment provider may convert the charge; review the amount shown during checkout.

Can unused credits be refunded?

The current refund policy says unused purchased credits are not refundable. Check the policy before buying.
