# Checking balance

> Read your current credit balance.

Read your balance at any time. Useful for showing a live credit meter in your
app.

```bash theme={null}
curl https://api.heyaskr.ai/credits/balance \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "credit_id": "YOUR_CREDIT_ID" }'
```

```json theme={null}
{ "balance": 9.8412, "currency": "USD" }
```

<Tip>
  Refresh the balance after each request completes so your credit meter always
  reflects the latest spend.
