Your agent spends from two balances: USDC in your wallet and, if you have them, promotional Workspace Credits. This page shows every way to add to each one.

​
How it works

  • USDC pays for agent tools, transfers, and purchases.
  • Workspace Credits cover agent tool calls and Build with Locus deployments. When your credit balance covers a tool call, Locus charges the credits instead of wallet USDC.
  • Credits can’t be withdrawn or used for transfers.
