How Credits Work

Each credit in CapCut is equivalent to $0.01 USD, making it easy to calculate the cost of AI tasks. For example, an AI feature that costs 100 credits would equal $1. Credits are deducted from your balance whenever you use an AI feature, so you only pay for what you actually use.

How to Obtain Credits

Credits can be purchased directly within CapCut on Web, PC, or Mobile. You can also check your credit balance in your profile or account settings. Once purchased, credits are stored in your account and can be used immediately for AI operations. This allows for a seamless workflow without interruptions when editing or generating content.

Benefits of Using Credits

Credits offer several advantages:

  • Flexibility: Only pay for what you use.
  • Cost control: Easily track and manage expenses for AI features.
  • Precision: Allocate credits to specific AI features or tasks you need most, giving you more control over your editing workflow.

In summary, credits are CapCut's virtual currency for AI features, with each credit equal to $0.01 USD. They allow users to access, use, and pay for AI-powered tools efficiently while giving flexibility, cost control, and easy management.
