Memberships
What you pay to keep using Candy AI
A subscription lets you continue conversations, while a token balance pays for supported media actions. Work out whether you mainly want to type, request pictures or use interactive character features. Those activities affect both the membership you need and the balance you may spend.

Read the amount collected for the whole term
The payment taken depends on the billing period you select. For quarterly and annual memberships, the per-month figure spreads out the cost for comparison; the term is charged together. A monthly membership has a lower opening charge followed by the recurring monthly price.
| Billing period | Price shown for comparison | Payment schedule |
|---|---|---|
| 1-month term | $9.99 for the first month | $13.99 per month on subsequent renewals |
| 3-month term | $8.99 per month across the term | $26.97 billed every three months |
| 12-month term | $3.99 per month across the year | $47.88 charged for each annual subscription |
Your checkout determines the eligible offer, currency, tax and final amount due. The USD figures here record a dated offer, not a permanent worldwide tariff. Read the renewal terms there too, and do not mistake a longer plan's monthly comparison figure for an instalment arrangement.
Find the access and token grant attached to each tier
Personas, chat customization, memory slots and cloned chats are Plus features. To price that tier, open the membership selector in your account. The standard Premium offer shown here does not establish what you will pay for Premium Plus.
| Plan | What the plan lets you do | Recurring token grant |
|---|---|---|
| Free | Use up to five shared messages, create one custom companion and generate one picture | No recurring token grant is promised for free accounts |
| Premium | Carry on ordinary text conversations without a message ceiling | Monthly grant of 100 tokens |
| Premium Plus | Use unlimited ordinary text conversation and the Plus additions | Monthly grant of 330 tokens |
Will you mostly type, request images or speak?
After the five shared free messages, continuing the conversation needs paid chat access. Pictures, clips and supported calls also involve media spending. Include those action costs in your budget; being admitted to a feature does not mean every request inside it is covered.
A portrait is not a list of supported features. If a certain voice or media option matters, open the profile's available controls before paying for several months. Use the free exchange to begin the kind of conversation you would want to continue.
| What you intend to do | What that means for your plan |
|---|---|
| Keep a text exchange going | The five free messages are shared across companions. Ordinary subscriber text conversation has no message ceiling. |
| Make pictures and clips often | Media charges can require a top-up beyond Premium's 100 monthly tokens or Plus's 330; plan around the actions you intend to use. |
| Use a character's voice | Find the profile's voice control and confirm your access and call price before connecting. |
| Continue while offline | Our home-screen shortcut still needs connectivity for chat and generation; it does not add offline use. |
| Depend on exact memory or a real person's reply | AI replies do not come personally from someone named on a profile. Memory features may also miss details. |
Turn off renewal without confusing it with repayment
Unless you cancel, the subscription renews automatically. Cancellation normally leaves your already-paid period available until it ends, rather than cutting off access immediately when you turn renewal off.
For money back, make a refund request under the conditions for that purchase. Neither leaving chats unused nor closing the browser stops renewal. Removing a home-screen icon does not do so either; cancellation requires the subscription action.
Your questions
What access is available before I buy a Candy AI plan?
You can begin with the limited free uses. For continuing paid text conversations, Premium and Premium Plus each provide chat access and their own monthly allocation of tokens for supported media actions.
Does the yearly price shown per month become a monthly bill?
We take the annual term's full payment. The per-month equivalent explains that cost across the year; it is not a schedule of separate monthly collections. Confirm the total before subscribing.
Is Candy AI worth paying for if I mainly want to chat?
A membership can suit you if you want to continue text conversations after the five free messages. For frequent images or calls, add the displayed token costs to the plan price. Try a character first and check its available controls before committing to a longer term. Memory tools can still miss details, and a paid plan does not provide offline conversation.
