Nothing. The editor that turns JPEG, PNG, and WebP photos into a GIF runs in the browser. It does not charge, and it does not require an account. It also cannot invent motion from a prompt.
You choose 480p or 720p, and 3 or 5 seconds. Both resolutions are 16:9 landscape, and a tall photo is center-cropped. The default generation, 720p for 5 seconds at 10 credits, is the usual size. The server list also prices 480p for 3 seconds at 3 credits, 480p for 5 seconds at 5 credits, 720p for 3 seconds at 6 credits, and 720p for 5 seconds at 10 credits. The page cannot choose a different number.
$9 buys 180 credits, valid for 90 days. It is one payment, not a subscription. That is about 18 clips at 720p for 5 seconds, or about 60 at 480p for 3 seconds. A card is charged only when checkout is enabled and you finish it.
Three if you sign up with Google: enough for one 480p, 3-second AI GIF, valid 30 days, once per account. An account created with email starts at 0.
Credits are spent when a job is accepted. Eligible failed jobs return credits unless you delete the job. Returned credits are not cash. A job is eligible when the model fails, rejects the job, the photo cannot be stored, or the job is not confirmed or does not finish in time. A request rejected before it is accepted, including invalid input, a blocked prompt, not enough credits, or closed intake, is not charged. A succeeded job is not refunded. A result that is still waiting to be saved is not refunded by that error. A video that is too large to store is not refunded by that error. Deleting a queued or running job gives up that refund. This changes the credit balance. It is not a cash refund.
On My GIFs, private to your account. The source photo is deleted within 24 hours. The MP4 and the GIF are deleted within 30 days unless you delete them sooner. They are not used as public examples.
