Purchase Credits
The Buy button always displays as an option on the solution page even if you're in trial mode. If there's a previous balance that is less than the cost of the solution you're requesting, you'll be prompted to buy more in order to complete your transaction. Purchases must be made with a credit card.

Credit Consumption Rules
Each user receives two free trial credits. Your available trial credits or your available balance are displayed on the top right portion of the D&B Business Solutions window.
You will be asked to confirm any purchases or usages of trial credits. If you do not have enough purchased credits to complete a transaction, you will be prompted to purchase additional credits. If there is no score available, you will not be charged for the score. For example, if there is no Paydex score available for a business, you will only be charged for the Financial Stress Class Score.
All purchases expire one year from purchase date.
