Some users notice that when they try to purchase credits in CapCut, they are asked to first subscribe to a CapCut membership. This occurs because many AI-powered features and premium tools in CapCut are subscription-based. To access these advanced functions, a membership is required, and credits are used to perform specific tasks within the subscription framework. 📍 If you have questions about membership, credits, or AI feature access, please contact our support team for guidance.
AI Features Are Subscription-Based
CapCut's AI features, such as auto-editing, AI background removal, and advanced video generation, are only available to active members. Credits alone are not sufficient to unlock these tools; they are an additional resource used within the membership. This ensures that only subscribers can access and benefit from premium AI capabilities while maintaining the quality and sustainability of the platform.
How Membership and Credits Work Together
When you subscribe to a CapCut membership, you gain access to a wide range of premium tools and features, along with credits for performing specific actions. For example, you might use credits to generate AI effects, create professional templates, or process high-resolution exports. Without a membership, the AI features remain locked, so the system prompts you to subscribe before using credits.
Why This System Is Beneficial
Requiring a membership before spending credits ensures that users get full value from AI features. It prevents situations where credits are spent without access to the subscription-based tools needed to complete a task. This structure also allows CapCut to continue offering advanced AI services sustainably and fairly to all users.
In short, if you are asked to subscribe to a CapCut membership before purchasing or using credits, it is because AI features are subscription-based, and credits are designed to be used in combination with the membership. This system ensures you have access to all premium tools and maximizes your creative potential.
