Credits Never Expire: Buy Once, Create Anytime
Why CoupleFrame sells one-time credit packs instead of weekly subscriptions — and how couples stretch credits over time.
Most AI photo apps push a weekly or monthly subscription. That pricing fits daily power users. Most couples are not daily power users. You want a frame for an anniversary, a birthday surprise, a long-distance weekend, or a wedding mood board — then you might not open the app again for months.
Our approach
CoupleFrame sells simple credit packs. One credit powers one draft generation; unlocking HD costs an additional credit. Credits never expire. Buy a starter pack when you need it; come back later without losing what you paid for.
If you want a mental model for prepaid value that does not rot on a calendar, think of store credit that stays on your account — not a gym membership that bills whether you show up. For a consumer-friendly primer on prepaid vs subscription tradeoffs, FTC guidance on negative option / subscription practices is a useful backdrop for why we refuse countdown timers on unused credits.
Practical tips
- Start with signup bonus credits to learn the upload → scene → draft loop on your own faces.
- Upgrade when you know you will create a few more scenes in the next season of life.
- Park leftover credits for holidays, reunions, and “just because” days — they will still be there.
- Generate drafts freely when exploring; unlock HD only on the keepers you will actually share or print.
What you are not buying
You are not buying a weekly seat, a prompt playground, or a custom model training queue. You are buying a small stack of couple frames you can spend on your timeline. No countdown. No “use it or lose it.” Just credits waiting for the next frame you want to make together.
