# Contact reveals

> See when reveal credits are spent and how to avoid wasting them.

A reveal unlocks available contact channels for a contact, such as email, phone, LinkedIn, or other supported fields when StoreInspect has usable data.

Contact credits are shared anywhere your account reveals contacts in StoreInspect.

## Reveal rules

* Contact search and contact previews do not spend reveal credits.
* Revealing a contact for the first time spends one shared contact credit.
* Re-revealing a contact already revealed to your account does not spend another credit.
* Rows with no available contact channel do not spend credits.
* Already revealed contacts remain available in your account history and reveal list.

## Trial credit note

Trial accounts can have a temporary credit cap. Paid Pro accounts receive the Pro monthly contact-credit total. If trial credits run out, the billing page may offer a way to unlock paid credits early.
