Trend Vision One credit-based licensing is an innovative new pricing model that provides you with a more flexible way to manage multiple solutions through Trend Vision One.

Credit-based licensing gives you the freedom to deploy Trend Micro services without the hassle of individual licenses. Simply enable the services you need, and your credits are allocated automatically. You can reallocate resources at any time, enabling you to respond dynamically to changing demands. Start using credits in 4 simple steps.
Step 1: Estimate your credit requirement
Step 2: Purchase credits
Contact your sales representative to purchase a subscription license for Trend Vision One credits. You can also purchase and upgrade your Trend Vision One credit license from the Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure marketplaces.

Tip
If you purchase more credits than initially necessary, any extra credits can be used to try out new Trend Micro Solutions or respond to unexpected demands.
Step 3: Enable supported solutions in Trend Vision One
When you enable a supported app or sensor in Trend Vision One, credits are automatically deducted from your available credit balance. If you disable a supported app or sensor, credits are automatically returned to your available credit balance.

Tip
Trend Vision One credits are a type of subscription license, so all your purchased credits are valid and accessible until their expiration date. In other words, you do not "spend" credits, you only allocate them. You can freely allocate and reallocate your credits for the duration of the license term.
