Minimize Imgix Costs
Every asset served through Imgix consumes delivery credits (bandwidth). imgix transitioned to a credit-based pricing model in late 2025:
- Management credits: cache storage (2 credits/GB/month)
- Delivery credits: bandwidth (1 credit/GB)
- Transformation credits: image processing (varies by feature)
Non-image assets (PDFs, ZIPs, etc.) served through Imgix consume delivery credits even though no transformation is applied.
This plugin skips non-image assets by default ($asset->kind !== 'image'). To route all assets through Imgix, set 'skipTransform' => false. You can also disable Imgix for specific volumes:
php
use Newism\Imgix\models\VolumeSettings;
'volumes' => [
'documents' => VolumeSettings::create()->enabled(false),
],For more details, see the imgix pricing page and the credit consumption guide.
