How credits work.
A film by its length
A longer film uses more credits; a 45-second film uses about 40. The app shows an estimate before a film starts, and you are charged what each step really uses.
Every month
Creator adds 200, Studio adds 700 credits each month, on a monthly or a yearly plan.
Changes and exports
Asking for changes after a film is made, and exporting it, use a few credits too. Every version is kept.
Questions
Is the first film really free?
Yes. Sign in and make your first film, up to 45 seconds, without paying. It carries a small “Made with explain.film” mark.
What is a credit?
Credits pay for the work behind a film: the writing, the art, the narration, the music and the rendering. A longer film uses more; a 45-second film uses about 40. Changes after the film is made and exports use a few credits too.
Do yearly plans get their credits once a year?
No. Every paid plan adds its credits every month, on a monthly or a yearly plan. Creator adds 200 a month either way.
What currency are the prices in?
The prices on this page are in US dollars. Checkout is run by Wix: it shows the price in your local currency, and whether tax is included or added, before you pay.
Can I change or cancel my plan?
Yes. An upgrade switches your plan right away, and the unused part of your current plan counts toward the new one. Anything else, from a downgrade to cancelling, is done on your Wix account’s subscriptions page.
