Monthly credits vs one-time credits
Monthly plans suit steady, heavy use. If your usage comes in bursts, credits that reset every month go to waste; one-time packs keep their value until you use them.

Quick answer
Updated
Kenerate is an OpenArt alternative without a subscription. OpenArt sells monthly plans — Starter, Plus, Pro and Wonder — and its pricing page says credits reset each month and don't carry over; its terms say free-plan images may carry an OpenArt watermark. Kenerate gives 25 free credits, then one-time credit packs that never expire, across 80+ image models with editing and video, and no watermark.
