Good to know

- Tick Remove metadata in Options to leave out information stored in the picture, such as the camera and the place.

Yes. Everyone gets 25 free credits a day, with no account needed. Conversions on our server use one credit per started minute of work, so most cost a single credit. Credits reset at midnight UTC.
