Filmora Pricing (2026): Yearly vs Perpetual, Free Version
Filmora has four ways to pay and one free version, and the right one depends on whether you need AI credits and whether you mind renewals. This page lists each plan, what the free version really limits, the student discount and the refund rules — from Filmora’s store read on 14 October 2026, in USD.
Recorded Filmora offer (November 10, 2026): SAF-KUPONAUT-FXD10 — 10% off. Confirm checkout eligibility.

How much does Filmora cost? The real situation
The free version has no time limit and the same tools as the paid plans, but every export carries a Filmora watermark. Basic ($49.99 a year) removes the watermark and gives 1 GB cloud and the 2.9M-asset library, with no AI credits. Advanced ($59.99 a year, shown struck from $69.99) adds 1,000 AI credits a month and 10 GB cloud; Premium ($99.99 a year) gives 2,000 credits, 100 GB and the Creative Assets packs. All yearly plans auto-renew. The Perpetual licence is a one-time payment (shown at $79.99 on the promotion page) for one platform and covers updates within the current major version only, with 1,000 one-time AI credits.
Wondershare gives a 30-day money-back guarantee on direct purchases under its accepted circumstances, excluding renewals and change of mind. Students and teachers get up to 40% off through Student Beans. Discounts are applied on the store page — an automatic “extra 10% off” on 14 October 2026 and Halloween and Black Friday sales — without a typed code. On top of that, Kuponaut’s exclusive code SAF-KUPONAUT-FXD10 takes 10% off at checkout through 31 Dec 2026 (not valid on educational or other marketing-event offers); we applied it on 10 Nov 2026.

How can you pay less for Filmora?
- Edit on the free version until you have a video you actually want to publish; only then buy.
- Choose Basic if you do not use AI tools — the watermark removal is the same on every plan.
- Pick the Perpetual licence if you edit occasionally: one payment of about $79.99 beats three years of Basic, as long as you can skip major-version upgrades.
- Students and teachers: verify on the education store first (up to 40% off) — it is the largest published discount.
- Wait for Halloween or Black Friday if you can: Filmora runs sales both times every year.
