The feature FAQ confirms watermark-free transparent PNG/blurred-background downloads with a free account; replacing with a new background allows one free download per day, while premium backgrounds require a subscription. The pricing table says Limited without quantifying daily transparent-PNG limits. General AI credits or the one-daily replacement limit are not applied to transparent cutouts. Verification has gaps; unknown prices and quotas are not inferred. Cancellation, sources & verification recordCancellation and refund terms follow official checkout and help policies.
