Credits pay for each image or video. The cost depends on the version and its settings and is shown before you generate; example costs are listed on this page. Credits are taken when a job starts and returned automatically if it fails.

Free gives new accounts 10 credits for 30 days, Seedream 4.5 and 5.0 Lite at 2K, Seedream 4.0 up to 2K with two images per run, and Seedream 3.0. Basic adds Seedream 5.0 Pro, 4K, six images per run on 4.0 and every Seedance version from 480p. Pro adds higher Seedance resolutions. Business adds commercial use and the most credits.

Seedream 4.5 and 5.0 Lite give 2K on Free and 4K from Basic. Seedream 4.0 gives 1K and 2K on Free and 4K from Basic. Seedream 5.0 Pro gives 1K or 2K from Basic. No image resolution needs Pro; Pro and Business differ from Basic on video and credits.

Yes, on every plan. Image Edit on Seedream 4.5 and 5.0 Lite accepts up to 14 reference images, and 4.0 and 5.0 Pro accept up to 10. A prompt describing the change is always required.

Seedance video starts on Basic, which covers all six versions at 480p plus 720p on 1.0 and 1.0 Pro. Pro raises the limits: 1080p on 1.0, 1.0 Pro and 2.5, 720p on 2.0 Mini and 2.0 Fast, and up to 4K on Seedance 2.0.

Generation pauses until you have credits again. You can upgrade, wait for your next monthly allowance, or buy a Credit Pack, a one-time purchase valid for 365 days.

Business Pack and Business Pack Max are one-time purchases of 4,900 and 19,900 credits, valid for 365 days. Each carries Business-level access, including commercial use, and stacks with any subscription; the higher tier applies.

A year costs less on an annual plan than paying monthly: $100 for Basic, $360 for Pro and $599 for Business. The full year of credits is added at once and stays valid for 365 days.

Yes. Choose another plan on this page while signed in. Current prices and credit amounts are always the ones shown here, and checkout shows what you will pay before you confirm.

Cancel anytime in Settings → Billing. Your plan and its credits stay available until the end of the period you have paid for, and you will not be charged again.

You can request a refund within 7 days of a purchase if less than 5% of its credits have been used. The unused share is refunded minus a 5% processing fee. Renewals are not refundable once the new period has started, and duplicate charges are refunded in full. See our Refund Policy.

Commercial use needs Business-level access: a Business subscription or an active Business Pack or Business Pack Max. Results made on Free, Basic or Pro are for personal, non-commercial use under the Terms of Service.
