How much does Candy AI Shorts cost?
Nothing to start: two episodes play free on every series but one. After that you pay in tokens, 12 an episode on 153 of the 167 series and 30 on the other 14. A typical five-part series therefore finishes for 36 tokens.
The honest version: you can spend nothing, a few tokens, or a monthly fee, and which one makes sense depends on how much you finish.
The three tiers in practice
Free. Episode 1 of every series with no account, episode 2 with a free one. No card. What that covers →
Tokens. 12 per locked episode on 153 of the 167 series, 30 on the other 14. A five-episode series therefore finishes for 36 tokens, which is the median for the whole catalogue. The longest series runs 34 episodes and 384 tokens.
A plan. A monthly token allowance plus the rest of Candy AI. The allowance is only shown once you are signed in, so work out what your next series costs first and compare from there.
Working out your own number
The useful calculation is not “what does the plan cost” but “what does the next series I want cost”. Every series page here shows its episode count, its free episodes and its token total before you click through to the player.

Where the value sits
Episodes run about a minute. A five-episode series is roughly five minutes. Judged as video that is expensive; judged as a serialised tease it is in line with the format. Either way, watch the two free episodes before deciding — they are a fair sample of the writing, and they cost nothing.
Questions people ask
Is there a subscription for Candy Shorts?
There is a Candy AI plan rather than a Shorts-only subscription. It covers the wider platform and includes a monthly token allowance, the size of which is only shown once you are signed in.
What is the cheapest way to finish one series?
Buy the smallest token amount that covers the series total. At 12 tokens an episode a five-part series needs 36 tokens.
Is the plan worth it for Shorts alone?
A typical series costs 36 tokens to finish, so unless you are watching several a month, or using the chat and image generation too, a token pack is the smaller commitment.
Are there refunds on tokens?
Treat tokens as spent once bought. Watch the free episodes first; that is what they are for.
