How AI video and image credits work at Zappy
What a credit buys, why video costs more than images, how multi-step workflows are priced, and what happens when a generation fails.
Pricing · Updated 2026-09-26
One unit for everything
Every creation at Zappy costs credits: images, video, audio, effects and ads. The price depends on the quality level you choose, and the studio shows the exact number before you click. Nothing runs until you have seen the cost.
Why video costs more
A video clip is dozens of frames that have to stay consistent with each other, so it takes far more compute than a single image. That is why fast images start at 2 credits while clips cost more, with premium video models at the top of the range.
Multi-step workflows
An ad is several steps: the ad photo, the motion and the music. Each step is priced before it runs, and you can stop after any of them; everything made so far lands in your library. The written script is free.
Failures and refunds
If a generation fails, the credits are refunded automatically.
Free daily credits
The free plan refills daily and needs no card, which is enough to try fast images and see what Zappy makes before you buy anything. The pricing page lists the current plans.
