## How do I get free credits or free minutes or free tokens?

When you sign up for a Roo Code Cloud account, you'll be given a number of "Free Minutes" to try the product out (you'll see a cute <LucideIcon name="Gift" style={{ width: 14, position: "relative", top: 4}} /> icon). Those free minutes cover both the [Cloud Agent](/roo-code-cloud/cloud-agents) run time _and_ inference via the Roo Code Cloud provider (both of which normally cost credits). Those can't be used in the extension – they're there for you to try the magic of Cloud Agents.
