Short answer: Subscription credits generally follow the subscription period, so it is best to plan production within the active cycle. One-time credit packs may have their own validity rules, shown during checkout and in your account balance; published pack cards list Valid for one year. Yearly plans are paid up front, and credits are released monthly over 12 months—the full annual allowance is not issued at purchase. This page does not invent unused-credit roll-over rules.

Do Seedance 2.5 credits expire?
Yes, public pages describe validity in two ways: subscription credits generally follow the subscription period, and one-time credit packs may follow their own rules shown at checkout and in your account balance. The published one-time pack cards list Valid for one year. Treat those lines as the public boundary—this guide does not add unpublished wipe dates or unused-credit roll-over conclusions.
| Credit type | What public pages say | What this page does not invent |
|---|---|---|
| Subscription credits | Generally follow the subscription period; plan production within the active cycle | Whether unused monthly credits roll over or wipe at cycle end |
| One-time credit packs | May have their own validity rules at checkout and in your account balance; cards list Valid for one year | Extra unpublished exceptions beyond the card and checkout text |
| Yearly subscription | Paid up front; credits released monthly over 12 months; the full annual allowance is not issued at purchase | A lump yearly pool delivered on day one |
How long do subscription credits last?
They generally follow the subscription period, so it is best to plan production within the active cycle. That is the pricing FAQ wording this page quotes. It is not a lab diary of what happens to leftover credits when a month or a plan ends—public pages do not publish a roll-over sentence, so this guide does not invent one.

- Plan generation work inside the cycle you are paying for.
- Do not treat this guide as a substitute for your account balance.
Do one-time credit packs expire?
They may: public copy says one-time credit packs may have their own validity rules, shown during checkout and in your account balance, and the published pack cards list Valid for one year. For pack sizes and how those packs compare with Mini–Pro subscriptions, see one-time credit packs. Re-check the live card before you pay if you need the current validity line.
How are yearly credits released?
Yearly billing is paid up front, but credits are released monthly over 12 months, and the full annual credit allowance is not issued at purchase. That means a yearly checkout does not drop a full-year pool into your balance on day one. This page does not invent whether unused credits from one monthly release carry into the next.
