18+ only. This page discusses subscription costs and ordinary fictional-adult character use.
Candy AI pricing involves several figures that need to be read together. The public monthly offer shows $9.99 for the first month and $13.99 at renewal. The quarterly plan costs $26.97 upfront, and the annual plan costs $47.88 upfront. The dollar symbol is copied from the offer. It does not tell you whether the amounts are Canadian or US dollars.
If you are budgeting in Canada, look at the currency code and the full term payment in the offer you select. The advertised monthly equivalents ($8.99 for the quarter, $3.99 for the year) are just a way of presenting the upfront payment. They are not instalment plans. Token purchases can add another charge, so a realistic budget covers the subscription and a deliberate limit on extras.
Separate subscription terms from token allowances
The table lists the public price labels apart from the confirmed allowances. Standard includes 100 tokens a month and Premium Plus includes 330. Plus also lists 20 memory slots and 5 chat clones. Check that feature list against the actual Plus offer before deciding whether the extra capacity matters for your character conversations.
A Canadian checkout also needs to show the currency and how provincial GST/HST applies. The dollar-symbol offer on its own gives you neither a Canadian total nor an exchange-rate calculation. Use the full payment summary to compare what is charged now with the next renewal.
The payment help lists cards, cryptocurrency, Apple Pay and Google Pay, depending on local availability. The payment method doesn't tell you the currency. Paying with a Canadian card, for example, doesn't prove that a dollar-symbol offer is in Canadian dollars. Record the actual currency code and total next to the method you used, so you can check a later statement against the offer you accepted.

| Standard included tokens | 100 per month | Included allowance, separate from additional purchases |

Read a billing summary in the right order
Start with the plan name and the term. A Standard annual offer and a Premium Plus monthly offer differ in both features and commitment. Write down the plan name next to the full payment, not just the headline monthly equivalent. The yearly figure of $47.88 against a monthly equivalent of $3.99 shows why both numbers belong in your notes.
Next, separate the first charge from the recurring one. On the published monthly offer, $9.99 is introductory and $13.99 is the renewal display. Set any ongoing spending limit from the recurring terms you accept. A first-period discount lowers the initial payment, but it doesn't set the cost of later periods or mean another promotion will follow.
Then find the actual currency and tax lines. A Canadian price needs more than a dollar sign: look for the currency code, the subtotal, any provincial tax and the total charged. Keep the receipt so you can compare the offer you accepted with the statement that arrives later. Candy publishes its billing descriptor as EverAI, which helps you match a statement entry to the account.
Once the subscription is settled, think about optional tokens on their own. Standard's 100 tokens and Plus's 330 are the grants, but how far they go depends on what each action costs and any package you pick. Decide beforehand whether you'll allow extra purchases. You can leave a larger balance unused, and there's no reason to buy more just because the account shows an upgrade option.
Last, note the renewal and cancellation controls. Subscriptions renew automatically. The documented way to cancel is My Profile, then Settings, then Unsubscribe, followed by a confirmation, and paid access continues until the current term ends. If you keep the confirmation and the accepted billing period, it's easier to tell an expected renewal from a charge that needs a closer look. The Delete Account control is separate and does a different job.
When comparing offers, keep allowances and purchases in separate columns. Standard's monthly 100-token grant is not the same as a package bought separately, and Plus's 10% top-up bonus applies to the stated quarterly or yearly plans. A bonus can change how many tokens come with an optional purchase without changing the subscription. Reading these terms side by side keeps a package promotion from becoming the main reason you sign up for a longer billing period.
The review's subscription table lists these terms next to the documented account features so you can compare them before choosing a billing period.
When these price labels were checked
The public subscription and allowance details were checked on 2026-10-28, and this page was edited on 2026-10-29. That snapshot covers the 100-token Standard grant, the 330-token Plus grant and the difference between the first-month and renewal prices. Offers can change between the time you compare and the time you buy, so go by the terms shown for the plan you actually select, not an older promotional figure.
Put the price alongside the account terms
The Candy AI review covers what you get for the price: a free introduction of 5 messages, token grants, privacy rules and separate cancellation and deletion controls. Those details show whether the plan suits the way you plan to use it, not just whether it's affordable on day one.
For a wider comparison, the AI girlfriend app guide separates daily message allowances from one-time introductions and lists local storefront prices where they exist. Compare matching billing terms and the features you'd use, especially when one product combines a subscription with tokens and another structures its allowance differently.
Frequently asked questions
What will Candy charge after the introductory month?
The public monthly display goes from $9.99 for the first term to $13.99 at renewal. These figures keep the original dollar symbol because the offer doesn't state an ISO currency. Check the plan you select for its exact recurring charge, tax treatment and renewal date. A saved receipt and confirmation are more reliable than assuming the opening promotional price will last.
Is the annual offer paid every month?
No. The public yearly offer is $47.88 charged for the year, with $3.99 shown as a monthly equivalent. That figure spreads the price out for comparison, but you still pay for the full year at once. The quarterly offer works the same way: $26.97 for three months, shown as $8.99 a month. Keep the actual term payment in view when deciding whether a longer commitment fits your budget.
Are 100 tokens enough for a month?
That depends on how you use the account and what each action costs. Standard gives 100 tokens per month, and Plus gives 330. The grants alone don't tell you how many activities you'll get through or whether you'll want more. Treat the fixed subscription amount and optional token spending as separate items, and set a cap on extra purchases before they become a habit.
Does Premium Plus simply mean more tokens?
The published Plus package includes 330 monthly tokens, 20 memory slots and 5 chat clones. Quarterly and yearly Plus plans also list a 10% top-up bonus. These are different kinds of benefit: an allowance, organization capacity and a purchase bonus. Weigh them against what you'll actually use. The feature list is not a price quote for the subscription, and it doesn't guarantee better conversational recall.
Can I assess the format without buying a paid plan?
Candy offers a free introduction of 5 messages across characters, 1 created character and 1 generated image. It's a limited account allowance, not a week of Premium. It can give you a sense of the basic presentation, but it's too small to show how a long-running character story will hold up. Keep the free offer separate in your mind from any recurring subscription and from the paid monthly token grants.
