Premium costs $3.99 a month on the annual plan, billed as $47.88 a year, or $13.99 a month on a one-month plan. Premium includes 100 tokens a month. Standard locked episodes cost 12 tokens, Creators episodes 30, and Spicy episodes 30 or 50. A 36-token series fits inside one month’s allowance, so the annual plan is the cheapest way in if you finish more than one series a month.
The Premium plans, side by side
Candy AI pricing starts with one decision: how long you commit. Premium is Candy’s paid subscription, and the monthly price falls as the term gets longer. Prices were checked in October 2026 for US visitors.
| Plan | Price per month | Billed as | Saving |
|---|---|---|---|
| 12 months | $3.99 | $47.88 a year | 70% off |
| 3 months | $8.99 | $26.97 | 35% off |
| 1 month | $13.99 | $13.99 each month | – |
Candy also lists shorter billing cycles: payment every two weeks is billed at $9.79, and weekly payment at $5.60. Those amounts look small, but they cost more per month. $9.79 every two weeks comes to about $21 a month, and $5.60 a week comes to about $24.
The 70% annual discount is applied automatically on the plans page, so you don’t need a code for it. Premium renews at the same price and term until you cancel.
Read the billed amount, not the monthly figure, when you compare plans. The monthly figure is the yearly bill spread across twelve months, and the bill is what leaves your account.
What Premium includes, and what it leaves out
The Candy Shorts Premium plan is the same subscription that covers the rest of Candy, and its benefit list is long. These are the items I would weigh:
- Create your own AI girlfriend, or several.
- Generate 18+ videos and 18+ images.
- The full live action experience.
- Unlimited text messages.
- 100 tokens every month.
The last item matters most for the shorts. Locked episodes need a Premium subscription and are paid with tokens. Premium gives you the tokens, and each locked episode costs some of them. The subscription and the tokens are two separate costs, and you pay both when you finish a series.
Every locked episode still costs tokens on top of the monthly fee, so the plan price is only part of the bill. The next section shows the token side. A useful way to read this page is to treat the plan as the fixed cost and the tokens as the variable one. The fixed cost is the same every month, and the variable cost depends on what you watch.
How many tokens each episode costs
Candy AI tokens are what locked episodes and extras cost. Most locked episodes cost 12 tokens. Creators series cost 30 per locked episode, and Spicy titles cost 30 or 50.
| What costs tokens | Tokens |
|---|---|
| Standard locked episode | 12 |
| Creators locked episode | 30 |
| Spicy locked episode | 30 or 50 |
| Scene video (a 5-second clip of one chat moment) | 12 |
| AI phone call (needs a subscription) | 3 per minute, beta price |
Two details change the arithmetic. Episodes 1 and 2 of each Spicy title come with Premium, so the locked count is lower than the episode count. The phone-call price is a beta price, and it may not stay at that level. Scene videos and phone calls are paid in the same tokens as episodes, so a month of chat can compete with the shorts for the same 100.
Three monthly cost scenarios, worked out
The plan price is fixed, so the real question is how many tokens you spend. Here are three habits on the annual plan.
Light: one standard series a month. A 36-token series leaves 64 tokens unused. Cost: $3.99 a month, or $47.88 for the year.
Regular: two standard series a month. That is 72 tokens, with 28 left over. Cost: $3.99 a month, about $2.00 per series.
Creators fan: one Creators series a month. A 90-token series such as Our Host Is Riley Reid nearly uses the whole allowance, with 10 tokens left. Cost: $3.99 a month, or about $3.99 per series.
The heavy case is the long series. YES MA’AM takes 300 tokens to finish, which is three full months of allowance. My bestie betrayed me takes 384 tokens, close to four months. On the one-month plan, three months of YES MA’AM would cost $41.97. On the annual plan, the same three months cost $11.97.
Most readers land between the light and regular habits. The difference is how many series you finish, not how fast you watch.
The cheapest path: start free, then decide
Start with the free episodes. Episode 1 plays without an account, and episode 2 needs only a free sign-up. Then decide whether the series is worth the next step.
Two kinds of series are worth your first purchase. A standard series like Under the Chief costs 36 tokens to finish, so one month of Premium covers it. A Creators series costs 90 and uses almost all of one month’s allowance, so it makes sense only if the cast is the reason you are there.
The money line is simple. If you finish more than one series a month, the annual plan at $3.99 a month is the cheapest way in. If you only sample, the free episodes are the whole cost, and you can stop there. Before you buy a locked episode, check the tokens-to-finish figure on the series listing. If it fits inside 100, one month of Premium can cover the whole series.
Billing: the EverAI charge, renewals and taxes
Your card statement will show the charge as EverAI, the company that runs Candy. Here is what to expect once the money moves:
- Renewal. Premium renews automatically for the same price and term until you cancel.
- Cancelling. You can cancel any time in settings. The steps are on how to cancel Candy AI.
- Taxes. Additional local taxes may apply on top of the plan price.
- Who bills you. EverAI Limited, a company registered in Malta. The safety check covers the company details.
Set a reminder for the renewal date the day you subscribe. It costs nothing, and it stops a renewal from catching you off guard. Keep a note of the price on the plan you chose, so the first charge can be matched against it. If a charge doesn’t match that note, check the plan details before you contact anyone, because the plan page is the reference for what you agreed to.
Why one episode costs 12 tokens and another 50
What the shorts cost depends mostly on the series type. In the catalog, standard titles cost 12 tokens per locked episode, Creators series cost 30, and Spicy titles cost 30 or 50.
Standard series are the cheapest to finish. A five-episode series with two free episodes costs 36 tokens, which is three locked episodes at 12 each. Creators series feature the licensed AI likeness of a real adult performer and cost more per episode. Spicy titles are members-only, nothing in them is visible to guests, and episodes 1 and 2 come with Premium.
If you want the lowest tokens-to-finish, look for standard titles. Each series listing on this site shows the episode count, the free episodes and the tokens left to finish, so you can compare before you start. The true cost is the number of locked episodes times the per-episode price, and the tokens-to-finish figure already does that sum for you.
Where the costs catch people out
Most people don’t mind paying. They mind surprises. These are the ones I would plan for:
- The paywall at episode 3. Most series stop at episode 2, so the free part is short by design.
- Tokens on top of Premium. Premium gives you the tokens, and each locked episode costs some of them. Budget the tokens as their own line.
- Spicy titles with nothing free. Members-only titles show nothing to guests, so there is no free preview to judge them by.
- Extras that add up. A scene video costs 12 tokens for 5 seconds, and an AI phone call costs 3 tokens a minute at a beta price.
- Private Content. Packs are sold per character. I did not record their prices, so check the price on the pack before you buy.
Each one is easy to miss at checkout, so count them before you pay. The cheapest habit is to set a monthly token budget first, then choose episodes that fit inside it.
