Candy AI pricing is easy to understand once you split it in two: a Premium subscription, and tokens that unlock Candy Shorts episodes. Episode 1 of every series is free, so you can sample before you spend anything.
We're an independent fan guide, not Candy AI, and the figures below were checked in October 2026. Prices can change, so confirm the final amount on the official Candy AI subscriptions page before you pay.
Candy AI pricing: the three Premium plans at a glance
Premium comes in three lengths. The longer you commit, the lower the monthly price.
| Plan | Monthly price | You are billed | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 12 months | $3.99/month | $47.88 | Labelled "70% off" and best value |
| 3 months | $8.99/month | $26.97 | The middle ground |
| 1 month | $9.99 first month, then $13.99/month | Monthly | Lowest upfront cost |
Plans renew automatically for the same term, and local taxes may apply. You can cancel any time.
Want the Candy AI price in plain numbers? A full year on the monthly plan comes to about $163.88: the $9.99 first month plus eleven months at $13.99. The 12-month plan is $47.88. That is the gap.
What Candy AI Premium includes
Premium isn't only about Shorts. Every subscription includes:
- 100 tokens per month
- Unlimited text messages with AI characters
- The ability to create your own AI girlfriend
- 18+ image and video generation
For Shorts fans, the 100 monthly tokens are the headline perk. They are what unlock episodes once the free ones run out.
Candy AI tokens: what each episode costs
Here is how unlocking works on Candy Shorts:
- Episode 1: free, no account needed.
- Episode 2: free after a free sign-up.
- Episode 3 onward: unlocked with tokens.
Most series cost 12 tokens per episode. The creator "digital twin" series, which star licensed AI versions of real adult stars, cost 30 tokens per episode. The Candy AI cost that matters most for Shorts viewers is this per-episode token price, not the plan itself.
Example math: what 100 tokens buys
With 100 tokens in a month, you can unlock roughly eight standard episodes (96 tokens) or three creator episodes (90 tokens).
Most series run five episodes and the first two are free, so finishing one means unlocking three: 36 tokens on a standard series, 90 on a creator series. One month of Premium covers about two and a half standard series, or one creator series with a few tokens to spare.
Longer series cost more. YES MA'AM has 30 episodes, so unlocking episodes 3 to 30 at 12 tokens each adds up to 336 tokens, a little over three months of Premium allowance. Our Candy Shorts review weighs up whether that kind of binge is worth it, and our Riley Reid guide shows the 30-token series in action.
The free tier: what you can watch for nothing
Episode 1 of every series plays free with no account. Create a free account and Episode 2 unlocks too. That is usually enough to judge a story before you spend a single token. Our guide to Candy AI Shorts free explains exactly what free covers, and what it doesn't.
How to cancel your Candy AI subscription
Need out? The Candy AI cancel subscription route is short, and the idea is the same for every plan. Menu names can change, so follow what the official site shows you.
- Log in to your account on the official Candy AI site.
- Open your account settings.
- Go to the subscription section.
- Choose cancel and confirm.
- Check the confirmation screen or email for the date your current period ends.
Cancelling stops the next automatic renewal. Because plans renew for the same term, a 12-month plan left alone will renew for another 12 months, so set a reminder before the date. Billing is discreet, and our is Candy AI safe guide covers how payments and privacy are handled.
Which plan we'd pick
We'd pick the 12-month plan if you know you'll keep watching. At $3.99 a month it is the cheapest rate by far, and Premium includes 100 tokens per month, so the longer plan is simply the cheaper way to get them.
Not sure yet? Start with the free episodes. If you want more, the 1-month plan has the lowest upfront cost at $9.99, and the 3-month plan at $8.99 a month ($26.97) sits in the middle. Only choose 12 months if you're happy to be billed $47.88 and renewed for the same term.
That is Candy AI pricing in a nutshell: free episodes first, then tokens, with Premium as the cheaper way to stock up.
