Credits Explained

HP Tuners uses a credit-based licensing system to give you access to tuning specific modules on a vehicle. Credits are applied when you choose to license a module—such as an ECM/PCM, TCM, or other supported controller—allowing you to write custom calibration files.

The number of credits required varies by vehicle and module, a complete list of supported vehicles and current credit costs for each module is available on the Supported Vehicles page.

When Credits Are Required

  • You can read, edit, and save calibration files in VCM Suite without using credits.
  • Credits are only required when you are ready to write a new calibration to a licensed module.
  • This allows you to explore the software, review files, and prepare changes before committing credits.

Activating Universal Credits

To activate Universal Credits on your interface:

  1. Download and install the latest version of VCM Suite
  2. Connect your MPVI3 to your computer and ensure you have an internet connection
  3. Open VCM Editor and select Help > Resync Interface

This process will sync your credits and update interface firmware if required. If you experience issues during activation, please submit a support ticket.

Vehicle Licensing Explained

When a module is licensed, that license is tied to:

  • The vehicle’s VIN
  • The controller’s operating system
  • The controller’s serial number

As long as these values remain unchanged, the license stays active on your interface and the vehicle can be tuned indefinitely.

One HP Tuners interface can store thousands of vehicle licenses, allowing you to tune multiple supported vehicles with a single device.

Universal Credits are a digital product. All credit sales are final and non-refundable.

Before completing your purchase, confirm:

  • How many credits you currently have
  • How many credits are required for your specific vehicle and modules
