Using credits for client work. Platform credits cover generation on AISeedance25. They are not a publishing license: rights to use the output for paid media, client deliverables or resale depend on your plan and on the underlying model provider's terms. Confirm commercial rights before you publish. See commercial video workflows.

Is Seedance worth it?

How do annual plan credits work?
Annual plans are charged once per year and issue the displayed credit allowance each subscription month. The full annual credit total is not issued upfront.
Do subscription credits roll over?
No. Each monthly subscription allowance expires at the next subscription-month boundary. Use a one-time credit pack when you need a longer-lived balance.
When do credit packs expire?
One-time credit packs are valid for 365 days from purchase and are consumed using first-expiring-first-out accounting.
Can I cancel a subscription?
Yes. Recurring billing can be canceled from the billing page. Access and credit grants follow the status and end date returned by the active payment provider.
Are the generation costs fixed?
The table reflects the current planning rates. Model, duration, resolution, provider pricing, and available routes can change, so the quote shown before generation is authoritative.
