What it costs
300 credits in total
Seedance 2.0, 720p, 5 s: 15 credits per clip
Without a plan, credit packs cover images and video on Seedance 2 Fast and Seedance 2.0 Mini at 720p only. Other video models and 1080p and above need a plan.
On each plan
Monthly credits renew with the plan. The price per clip is the renewal price divided by the plan's credits, times the credits of one clip.
| Plan | Credits a month | Clips covered | Price per clip | Monthly cost | First month |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Creator | 525 | 35 | $0.71 | $25 | $19 |
| Pro | 1,050 | 70 | $0.70 | $49 | $35 |
| Max | 2,500 | 166 | $0.59 | $99 | $70 |
Credit packs
One-time packs that never renew. Buy them on top of a plan when a month runs out.
The same credits as packs only: 2 × 160-credit pack for $16.
Without a plan, credit packs cover images and video on Seedance 2 Fast and Seedance 2.0 Mini at 720p only. Other video models and 1080p and above need a plan.
On the developer API
The API bills prepaid tokens instead of credits, with no subscription. Tokens for a failed job are released.
- 11 tokens per clip
- 220 tokens in total, $11.
Top-ups start at $20.

How the costs work
Everything in the studio is paid in credits, and the studio shows the cost before each generation. If a generation fails, its credits come back automatically.
Plans add credits every month and renew until you cancel. Credit packs are one-time and never renew, so they top up a plan in a busy month.
4K video needs the Pro plan or above. Without a plan, credit packs cover images and video on Seedance 2 Fast and Seedance 2.0 Mini at 720p only. Other video models and 1080p and above need a plan.
The developer API is billed separately in prepaid tokens, with no subscription.
Prefer to pay in crypto? Credit packs and plan months can be paid with USDT, USDC, Bitcoin, Ethereum and more. How paying with crypto works.
