We also offer automatic module removal, chip tuning, DTC removal, automatic make/ECU recognition, and a constantly evolving module recognition system, all without requiring software updates. We add new make and ECU models every day.

What operating system does NuoVolta run on?

NuoVolta runs on Windows 10 and Windows 11 (64-bit). You will also need .NET Runtime 9.0 installed on your system.

Yes, all our licenses are annual (yearly). There are no monthly plans. You can renew your subscription for 1 year.

Is there a daily usage limit?

There is no daily usage limit. However, NuoVolta reserves the right to suspend your license in case of suspicious usage.

What happens if my credits run out before the year ends?

If your credits run out early, you can pay your annual fee early to renew your license. Once the annual fee is paid, your license and credits will be reset.

What happens to my remaining credits after one year?

Expired credits are automatically deleted. Unused credits do not carry over to the next subscription period.

What are credits and how do they work?

Credits are used each time you process and register an ECU file. Each subscription plan includes an annual credit allowance (e.g., 730 credits/year). Credits are charged for each file processing operation according to the credit table below. Credits are reset annually upon the expiration or renewal of your subscription. View Credit Table →

  • When you upgrade, the credits you have already used will be deducted from your new package.

I want to upgrade but I've used more than 10% of my credits. What should I do?

If you have used more than 10% of your credits, you must first pay your annual renewal fee to reset your license. After that, you can upgrade by paying the price difference between your current package and the desired package.
