Candy Shorts price: Premium, tokens and what a series really costs
The Candy Shorts price has two layers, and you need both: Premium gets you through the door, and each paid episode still costs tokens. Premium runs from $3.99 to $13.99 a month depending on the plan, and all three include a monthly allowance of 100 tokens. Below are the plans and what each kind of episode costs; then we do the math on real series, from a typical five-episode story to the whole catalog. We don't turn tokens into dollars, since we have no verified rate for them.

The three plans, in dollars and euros
Candy sells Premium three ways, at the prices we saw on October 20 and 21, 2026. Yearly is the cheapest per month at $3.99, though you pay it as a single $47.88 charge. Quarterly costs $8.99 a month, billed as $26.97 every three months. Monthly starts at $9.99, and from the second month it's $13.99.
Euro prices use the same numbers: 3.99 euros, 8.99 euros, then 9.99 and 13.99 euros on the monthly plan. Local taxes may be added on top.
Each plan gives you 100 tokens a month. Premium renews by itself until you cancel the renewal, which you can do anytime. The charge on your statement says EverAI (EverAI Limited, based in Malta), not Candy, so don't be surprised when the name looks unfamiliar.
Our advice is simple. The yearly price looks great until you remember it's $47.88 in one go. Watch the free episodes first, and if you want more, a single month tells you plenty.
Candy Shorts tokens: why Premium alone isn't enough
This is the part people miss. On a free account, episode 3 brings up an upgrade window, and every paid episode from there needs two things at once: an active Premium plan and enough tokens to pay for it.
Premium on its own won't play a paid episode, and you can't skip Premium and just buy tokens either, because Candy sells token packs to subscribers. So the 100 tokens that come with Premium each month are your real budget, and packs top it up.
What an episode costs depends on the series. In 158 of the 173 open series, each paid episode is 12 tokens. The other 15 charge 30, and most of those are Creators series, starring licensed AI twins of real performers.
Spicy series follow their own rules. You need Premium from episode 1, episodes 1 and 2 then cost 0 tokens, and every later episode costs 30 or 50 depending on the series.
What a series really costs
Most series run five episodes (161 of them do), so start there. Two are free and the last three cost 12 tokens each, which means 36 tokens to see how it ends. A month of included tokens covers two of those, with 28 to spare.
If it's one of the 30-token series, the same three paid episodes come to 90 tokens. That's nearly a whole month's allowance on a single story.
The longest series, YES MA'AM, has 35 episodes. Two are free, the other 33 cost 12 tokens each, and the total comes to 396 tokens, close to four months of included tokens.
And the whole open catalog? Finishing all 173 open series costs 8,322 tokens, more than 83 months of Premium's monthly allowance, or nearly seven years. Nobody needs all of it. The honest Candy Shorts cost is whatever your five or six favorite series add up to, and that number is a lot friendlier.
Questions people ask
How much is Candy Shorts?
There's no single price. A year of Premium costs $47.88, or $3.99 a month; a quarter costs $26.97, so $8.99 a month; the monthly plan is $9.99 at first, then $13.99. Paid episodes also cost tokens: 12 or 30 each in the open series.
How many tokens does a Candy Shorts episode cost?
Usually 12. That's the rate in 158 of the 173 open series, while the other 15 charge 30 per paid episode. The opening episode is free for everyone, and the second normally is too after a free sign-up. In Spicy series, Premium members pay 0 tokens for the first two, then 30 or 50.
Can I buy Candy Shorts tokens without Premium?
Not from a free account. Candy sells token packs to subscribers, and paid episodes need Premium as well as tokens anyway, so Premium always comes first. Its 100 monthly tokens are your starting budget; packs only top that up when it runs dry.
What shows on my bank statement, and does it renew?
You'll see EverAI, from EverAI Limited in Malta, rather than Candy. Premium renews automatically on all three plans, and you can cancel the renewal anytime. Local taxes may apply, so the amount can sit a little above the listed price.
