Buy more credits

Buy one-time credit packs, turn on automatic top-ups, and see what happens to your credits over time.

Reviewed 2026-09-29

On a paid plan you can buy extra credits at any time, in one-time packs. Credits never expire.

Who can buy extra credits

  • You need an active paid plan. Without one, the app says To purchase more credits you need to subscribe first. See Compare plans and upgrade.
  • A canceled plan that has not ended yet still lets you buy credits.
  • If your plan shows Past due, fix the payment first. Select Fix payment in the sidebar or on the account page.

The Pricing page lists every pack and its price.

Buy a pack

From anywhere in the app:

  1. Select your credit balance in the sidebar. In the editor, select the coin at the top.
  2. The Quick credit top-up window opens. Pick a pack and select Buy now.

With a saved card, Buy now pays at once, so check the pack first. Without one, a secure checkout page opens.

From the Credits page:

  1. Open the Credits page.
  2. Under Get More Credits, select Buy now on a pack.
  3. Pay on the checkout page.

How you can pay

The checkout page shows the ways you can pay in your country. A plan can offer fewer ways than a credit pack. They can include:

  • A card
  • Apple Pay, Google Pay, Amazon Pay, Cash App Pay or Link
  • Klarna or Affirm
  • Stablecoins
  • Bancontact, EPS or UPI

You cannot pay by PayPal or bank transfer. Automatic top-ups use a saved card only.

When the credits arrive

  • Most purchases add the credits at once. You see Credits added or Purchase successful!
  • Payment processing: your bank has not confirmed the payment yet. The credits arrive when it does. Select Check payment to look again.
  • Payment status unknown: the app could not confirm the result. Select Check payment before you buy again.

Your purchases show on the Credits page under Purchase History.

Turn on automatic top-ups

If the Credits page shows Automatic top-ups, the app can buy a pack for you when your balance is low.

  1. Choose a Credit pack.
  2. Set Buy below. When your balance drops below this number, the app buys the pack.
  3. Set a Monthly limit (USD). The app does not spend more than this in a month.
  4. Tick the box to agree to automatic purchases.
  5. Select Enable automatic top-ups. With no saved card, the button says Set up card and opens the card setup.

To stop, select Turn off. Automatic top-ups need an active paid plan that is not set to cancel. If a payment fails or your plan ends, they show Paused.

Your credits over time

  • Plan credits roll over. When your plan renews, the new credits are added to the credits you still have.
  • Yearly plans add their credits each month, not all at once.
  • If your plan ends, your credits stay on your account. To generate a video again, you need a paid plan. See What a free account includes.
