USD on screen, pounds on the statement
Candy AI shows its prices in USD only. When a UK card pays, the bank converts the amount into pounds at its own rate for that day, and the statement shows the pounds figure.
Our pounds figures use a rough rate of 0.77 GBP per USD. The bank decides the real number, and it can shift from one week to the next.
Some cards also add a foreign transaction fee on payments in another currency. Whether yours does depends on the card, so check your bank before the first payment rather than after.
| Plan | Price | Billing | In pounds, roughly |
|---|---|---|---|
| 12 months | 3.99 USD | per month, billed once a year | £3.07 |
| 3 months | 8.99 USD | per month, billed every 3 months | £6.92 |
| 1 month | 9.99 USD | the first month, then 13.99 USD a month | £7.69 |
What the token figures mean for a series
Tokens are the unit Candy AI charges per paid episode, and they are what the main price board counts. Four figures cover most of it.
12 tokens is one paid episode at par, the rate on most series. 30 tokens is one paid episode on a star series. 36 tokens finishes a 5-episode series at par: 2 episodes free, then 3 x 12. 90 tokens finishes a 5-episode star series, such as Mia Malkova Is My Girlfriend's Step-Mom.
Longer series scale the same way. 7 episodes at par finish at 60 tokens, 9 at 84, 10 at 96. A series on sale is cheaper: I Won My Best Friend's Girlfriend costs 30.6 tokens at about 10.2 an episode.
The three Premium plans, in pounds
Each plan adds 100 tokens a month. They differ in how often the card is charged and how much each time.
The 12-month plan is 3.99 USD a month, billed in one go as 47.88 USD for the year (in pounds that's roughly £36.87). The 3-month plan is 8.99 USD a month, billed 26.97 USD every 3 months: in pounds that's roughly £20.77 a time.
On the 1-month plan, month one costs 9.99 USD and every month after it 13.99 USD, for as long as it runs. In pounds, the first month is roughly £7.69 and each later month roughly £10.77. Tokens against Premium, plan by plan sets out which suits which viewer.
| Plan | USD | Roughly in pounds | Tokens included |
|---|---|---|---|
| 12 months | 3.99 USD a month, 47.88 USD yearly | £3.07 a month, £36.87 yearly | 100 a month |
| 3 months | 8.99 USD a month, 26.97 USD each time | £6.92 a month, £20.77 each time | 100 a month |
| 1 month, first | 9.99 USD | £7.69 | 100 |
| 1 month, after | 13.99 USD a month | £10.77 a month | 100 a month |
One paid episode, as a share of a plan
Divide a month's 100 tokens by the episode rate and you see how far a plan goes. At par, 12 tokens is about an eighth of the allowance, so a first month at 9.99 USD covers 8 paid episodes with 4 tokens over.
At 30 tokens a star episode takes nearly a third of the month, and 3 of them use 90. On sale, at about 10.2 tokens, the same month stretches to 9 paid episodes.
The long one is YES MA'AM: 30 episodes, 336 tokens, which takes 4 months. On the 1-month plan that is 51.96 USD in total. In pounds that's roughly £40.01, before any card fee.
Keeping the pounds bill low
- Watch episode 1 free, with no account, before paying anything. Episode 2 needs only a free account.
- Ask your bank whether your card charges a foreign transaction fee on USD payments, and use one that does not if you have the choice.
- Count tokens before you subscribe: one month's 100 tokens finishes any series except YES MA'AM.
- Fit two par series into one month. 36 and 36 make 72 tokens, inside the allowance.
- Cancel the 1-month plan before it renews at 13.99 USD if you are done for now.
- Look at this week's markdowns first, where a series finishes at 30.6 tokens.
