How billing works
Open Canva uses a credit-based billing system. Every generation (image or video) costs a certain number of credits. You receive a monthly credit allocation based on your subscription plan, and credits reset each billing cycle.Key concepts
- Credits: The currency for generations. 1 credit = $0.02 in value.
- Monthly allocation: Each plan includes a set number of credits per month.
- Per-generation cost: Each generation deducts credits based on the model used and output type.
