How to Fund Your SoulrisAI Wallet — Step-by-Step Deposit Walkthrough

Why you need to fund your wallet

SoulrisAI runs on a pay-per-use wallet, not a subscription. Chat on the free tier costs nothing, but attachments, image generation, video generation, and the higher model tiers all draw from a wallet balance you top up yourself. See what you can do on the free tier before depositing if you're not sure yet whether you need to fund anything at all.

Before you start

You'll need a verified account — deposits require a verified email, which is a deliberate safeguard so an unverified account can't move real money through the platform. If you haven't verified yet, do that first; the deposit screen will prompt you if it's missing.

Step by step

  1. Open the deposit screen. You can get there from your wallet balance anywhere it's shown in the app, or directly from an insufficient-balance prompt mid-conversation — see understanding insufficient balance.
  2. Enter an amount. Every deposit has a minimum amount, enforced up front — if you enter less, you'll see exactly what the current minimum is and can adjust before continuing. Pricing and the minimum are described in more detail in minimum deposit amount and why it exists.
  3. Confirm your currency. If you're in a supported region, you'll see local pricing automatically; see supported payment methods and currencies for the full picture.
  4. Complete payment. You're handed off to a secure checkout to complete the payment with your chosen method.
  5. Wait for confirmation. Once payment succeeds, your balance updates automatically — usually within moments. If it doesn't show up right away, see paid but balance didn't update before trying again.

What happens behind the scenes

Your balance is never credited directly from anything the app itself reports back — it's only credited once the payment is independently confirmed as successful. That's a deliberate security measure: it means a balance can't be faked by tampering with the app or intercepting a request, only by actually paying.

After you've deposited

Your new balance is available immediately for everything that requires one: attachments, image and video generation, and the higher chat tiers. There's no separate activation step and no waiting period — see why the free tier doesn't include attachments or premium models for what specifically unlocks.

Can I deposit again later?

Yes — there's no cap on how many times you can top up, and no requirement to deposit a large amount at once. Many users deposit small amounts regularly rather than one large sum. Your running balance and full history are always visible — see reading your wallet transaction history.

Try it yourself: open the deposit screen and fund your wallet with any amount at or above the minimum — it only takes a minute, and your balance is ready to use right away.
