How pricing works
One credit balance, billed by the second
Seedance 2.0 Mini runs on credits instead of a monthly subscription, so you pay for the short clips you actually generate rather than a recurring seat you may not use every week. You buy a pack once, the balance sits in your account, and you draw it down a few credits at a time as you test ideas. Because credits never expire, a slow month never costs you anything.
Generation is billed by the second of output. That matters for short-form work: most drafts are only a handful of seconds long, and a flat per-clip price would punish a quick two-second test while undercharging a longer take. Per-second billing keeps the cost honest — iterate cheaply on Seedance 2.0 Fast at 480p or 720p, then re-run the keepers on the full Seedance 2.0 tier at 1080p once the direction is locked.
The same balance works across every model, so you never pre-buy credits for one and run dry in another. Move from a Fast draft to a full 2.0 take to a Seedance 1.5 Pro clip using one account, and each generation simply draws from the same pool at its own per-second rate.
Credit rates
Per-second rates by model
Pricing depends on the model, the resolution, and the clip length. Here is what one second of text-to-video or image-to-video output costs.
Seedance 2.0 & 2.0 Fast
Rates shown for text-to-video and image-to-video. Adding a reference video costs more per second.
Seedance 1.5 Pro
Seedance 1.5 Pro bills separately for silent and with-audio output across all three resolutions.
What credits buy
Per-second rates in practice
A few worked examples so you can picture how far a pack goes before you buy one.
A 5-second 720p clip on Seedance 2.0 Fast
The home generator runs at 8 credits per second, so a 5-second 720p draft costs about 40 credits. That is the rate you lean on while finding the shot.
A 5-second 480p clip on Seedance 2.0 Fast
Drop to 480p and the rate falls to 4 credits per second — about 20 credits for a 5-second draft. Ideal for high-volume idea testing.
A 5-second 720p clip on Seedance 2.0
The full Seedance 2.0 tier runs at 10 credits per second, so a 5-second 720p take costs about 50 credits — the step up when a direction is locked.
A 5-second 720p clip on Seedance 1.5 Pro
Seedance 1.5 Pro is 2 credits per second silent and 4 with audio, so a 5-second 720p clip costs about 10–20 credits depending on sound.
Signup bonus
10 free credits land in every new account, enough to try text-to-video and image-to-video before you spend a cent.
Credits never expire
Buy once and spend at your own pace. There is no monthly reset and no balance that quietly lapses.
6-month library
Generated works are retained in your library for 6 months, so earlier drafts stay available to revisit and download.
How to choose
Match the pack to how you test video ideas
Every pack uses the same per-second rates and the same never-expiring credits — the only difference is how much room you want and how low the price per credit goes.
🌱Starter
Pick Starter to confirm Seedance 2.0 Mini fits your workflow. 400 credits run a stack of short 720p Fast drafts and let you feel how per-second billing works before committing to a larger pack.
⭐Creator
Creator is the recommended pack for testing ideas on a regular cadence. The per-credit price drops, and 1,250 credits comfortably cover a week of social drafts across Fast, 2.0, and 1.5 Pro.
🚀Pro
Choose Pro when iteration is a habit. 2,200 credits leave real headroom for 1080p passes on Seedance 2.0 and back-to-back tests, at a lower price per credit than the smaller packs.
🏢Studio
Studio is the high-volume pack with the lowest price per credit. It suits a creator or small team running many short-video drafts where buying credits in bulk up front pays off.
FAQ
Pricing questions
Why does Seedance 2.0 Mini bill by the second instead of per clip?⌄
Short-video work is mostly short clips, and a flat per-clip price would overcharge a two-second test and undercharge a longer take. Per-second billing keeps the cost proportional to what you actually generate, so quick iterations stay inexpensive and you only spend more when an output is longer or higher resolution.
How do the per-second rates differ across models?⌄
Each model has its own rate. Seedance 2.0 Fast is 4 credits/sec at 480p and 8 at 720p. The full Seedance 2.0 tier is 5, 10, and 26 credits/sec at 480p, 720p, and 1080p. Seedance 1.5 Pro is 2 credits/sec silent and 4 with audio at 720p.
How many credits do new users receive?⌄
New accounts receive 10 free signup credits. You can spend them on text-to-video or image-to-video drafts to test the generator before deciding which credit pack fits your pace.
Do Seedance 2.0 Mini credits expire?⌄
No. Credits never expire, so an unused balance stays available for the next time you need a draft. There is no monthly reset to track and no rush to spend a pack before it lapses.
How long are generated works retained?⌄
Generated works are retained in your library for 6 months, so you can revisit, compare, and download earlier drafts while you iterate on a concept.
Can I get a refund for unused credits?⌄
A paid credit purchase may be reviewed as long as none of the paid credits from that purchase have been used. Free signup credits are not refundable. See the Refund Policy for the full terms.
