Can I move my remove.bg credits to PixRemove?

No. The two services are unrelated, and remove.bg’s pay-as-you-go credits expire on December 1, 2026. You can try PixRemove without an account, and a new account with a verified email gets 10 free credits, once per person.

Do I need an account to try it?

No. Drop, upload or paste an image and you get up to 2 free cut-outs a day without signing up.

Is the download full resolution and watermark-free?

Yes. You get a transparent PNG at the resolution you uploaded, with no watermark, and you can use it commercially. Images can be JPG, PNG or WebP, up to 30 MB and 30 megapixels.

How does pricing work?

One cut-out costs 1 credit. Credit packs are one-time purchases valid for a year; monthly plans cost less per image. Failed images are never charged. See pricing.

Is there an API for developers leaving remove.bg’s self-service API?

Not as a self-serve product yet. API access is set up case by case: email us what you’re building and roughly how many images a month. See the developer page.

Can I remove backgrounds from many images at once?

Yes. The batch background remover takes up to 50 images per run in the browser and gives you one ZIP. For more, the Mac app takes a whole folder.
