How Deepswap Credits Work: Face Swap Pricing and Limits

Deepswap's credit system ties directly to the type of media you're swapping - images are cheap, videos are expensive, and understanding this split is the key to managing your budget.

Credit Costs by Media Type

Photo face swaps - The cheapest option. A single image face swap typically costs 1-2 credits. This includes photos and static images in any common format.

GIF face swaps - Mid-range cost. Animated GIFs cost more than stills because they process multiple frames. Expect 5-15 credits depending on length.

Video face swaps - Most expensive. Video processing costs scale with duration. Short clips (under 10 seconds) might cost 20-40 credits. Longer videos can cost 100+ credits per swap.

Free Credits

Deepswap gives new users a starter credit allocation, usually enough for several photo swaps or one short video. Daily login bonuses and first-time actions add small amounts. Free credits are best thought of as a trial rather than sustained use budget.

Subscription vs Credit Packs

Deepswap offers monthly subscriptions and one-time credit packs. For regular users, subscriptions are significantly cheaper per credit than purchasing packs individually. If you only occasionally need swaps, buying a credit pack as needed makes more sense than a recurring subscription.

Getting the Most from Credits

1. Start with images - If you're testing a concept, do it on a still image before committing video credits
2. Trim video clips before uploading - Only pay to process the frames you actually need
3. Check output before full processing - Some platforms offer a preview mode at reduced credit cost
4. Watch for promotional credit bonuses - Deepswap occasionally runs promotions with bonus credits on purchases

Credit balances carry over month to month with most subscription plans, so unused credits don't go to waste.
