One iCredit is equal to one US dollar (USD). 

Overview

iCredits are the currency required for purchasing data storage and running data analysis for Illumina software solutions on the cloud. This flexible streamlined purchasing solution allows users to pay-as-you-go or make a one-time purchase of larger quantities at a lower price point for high-throughput data analysis applications.  

iCredit usage and benefits: 

  • Apply iCredits to run common genomic data analysis or store, archive, and transfer data 

  • Pre-purchase iCredits or set up monthly payments 

  • Track iCredit usage through dashboards and downloadable reports 

iCredits can be used in Illumina Connected Analytics and BaseSpace Sequence Hub.  

Applications
