I read the Candy.ai plans page on October 29, 2026, without logging in, and set it beside the token prices on the series pages. From those two sources I built the bill for a typical five-episode Candy Shorts series and for the longest titles in the library. You see the total here before you pick a plan.
How much is Candy AI in 2026?
Candy AI costs between $3.99 and $13.99 a month, depending on the term you pick. The 12-month plan has the lowest monthly rate, and the monthly plan gives the shortest commitment. Amounts are in US dollars, read from the plans page on October 29, 2026.
Episodes 1 and 2 of the 173 open series cost 0 tokens, so a plan matters from episode 3 onward. The free episodes guide covers what plays before the first charge, and this page covers what comes after it.
What does each Candy AI plan cost?
| Plan | Monthly price | What you pay | Pick it if |
|---|---|---|---|
| 12 Months | $3.99 | $47.88, billed once a year | you will follow new releases for a full year |
| 3 Months | $8.99 | $26.97, billed once a quarter | you want a few months of series without a yearly bill |
| 1 Month | $9.99 first month, then $13.99 | $9.99 now, $13.99 on each renewal | you want one or two series and a quick exit |
The plans page labels the 12-month plan 70 percent off and the 3-month plan 35 percent off. The first month of the monthly plan carries 29 percent off. Each percentage is measured against the $13.99 monthly rate.
The arithmetic favors longer terms quickly. Four months on the monthly plan cost $9.99 plus three renewals at $13.99, which is $51.96, already above the $47.88 annual bill. Three months on the monthly plan cost $37.97, against $26.97 for the 3-month plan. A full year of monthly billing reaches $163.88, nearly four times the annual price.
The term you pick sets the cost per month, and the tokens stay at 100 a month on all three. A longer plan lowers the price of each token, not the number you receive.
Plans roll over at the end of each term on the same price, and local taxes can appear at checkout. On a card statement the charge reads EverAI (checked September 24, 2026). Premium also lists unlimited text chat, plus image and video generation, which the Candy AI review weighs apart from the series.
What do the 100 monthly tokens buy?
The 100 monthly tokens buy eight paid episodes at 12 tokens each, or three at 30. Of the 173 open series, 158 charge 12 tokens a paid episode and 15 charge 30 (October 29, 2026).
A five-episode series has three paid episodes. At 12 tokens that totals 36, so one month of Premium covers two such series with 28 tokens left. At 30 tokens it totals 90, as in My Step-Sister's Dormitory, and one series takes most of a month's allowance.
Long series change the scale. My Bestie Betrayed Me has 34 episodes and costs 384 tokens to finish, and YES MA'AM has 35 and costs 396. Both charge 12 tokens a paid episode, so each takes roughly four months of allowance.
Spicy series follow different rules. They need Premium from episode 1, and the 17 on the shelf stay hidden from visitors. Their later episodes cost 30 tokens in nine series and 50 in five creator series on October 19, 2026, the last date I could check.
Is Candy AI worth it?
Candy AI is worth paying for when you plan to finish more than one series. It is not needed if the free pair satisfies you. The test costs 0 tokens: play episodes 1 and 2 of a series, and pay only if episode 3 is next on your list.
Price per series makes the case. On the 12-month plan, one $3.99 month pays for two five-episode series at 12 tokens. The monthly plan pays for the same two at $13.99, which is about three and a half times the cost, and its $9.99 first month is the cheapest short test.
Tokens are priced per episode, not per minute of video. Each series review states the episode count, the token total and where the content turns explicit, so you know the bill before you start. The series list shows each reviewed title with its price.
Is there a Candy AI promo code or discount?
The discount on Candy AI is the one printed on the plan cards: 70, 35 and 29 percent off the $13.99 monthly rate. I do not publish promo codes, because coupon sites are not a source for the regular price, and the plan cards show no trial period.
A code that promises Premium at no charge is bait. The safety guide covers billing and who runs Candy Shorts. If you want a lower price, the 12-month plan already gives the deepest cut.
How do you cancel Candy AI?
You cancel Candy AI in your account settings. The plans page says "Cancel subscription at any time in settings" and repeats "Cancel any time" on the plan cards (checked October 29, 2026).
Cancel before the renewal date to avoid the next charge, since a plan renews at the same price and term. The 12-month plan bills $47.88 again after a year, and the 3-month plan bills $26.97 each quarter.
Refunds follow the terms of service of September 22, 2026. Outside the EU and UK, a refund applies within 24 hours of purchase and is denied once you have spent over 20 tokens. In the EU and UK, the first purchase carries a 14-day withdrawal right. Terms change, so read the current page before you rely on this.
Is Candy AI easy to cancel?
Cancellation sits in settings, so it is a step you take yourself and not a message you send. The cost of timing is the plan length: cancel a 12-month plan a month in, and the $47.88 is already paid for the year.
That is why the monthly plan suits a first try. After the $9.99 first month, the largest exposure is one renewal at $13.99. Read the Candy Shorts overview before you choose a term, and use the free pair of a series to check that the format suits you. If it does, the next question is how many series you want, and the token math above answers it.
