Short answer

KreatorFlow's Seedance API gets cheaper as you use more, automatically. Once your paid top-ups in the last 30 days reach $1,000, Seedance video costs up to 5% less per second, rising to up to 10% off from $5,000 (Enterprise), and your video request limit goes from 20 to up to 300 a minute. No contract and no sales call. As of 21 October 2026.

How to get volume pricing on the Seedance API

  1. 1

    Use the API as normal

    Every account starts on Standard: list prices and 20 video requests a minute.

  2. 2

    Top up

    Your tier comes from the token top-ups you paid for in the last 30 days. One large top-up or several smaller ones both count.

  3. 3

    The tier applies itself

    As soon as your top-ups reach a tier, new Seedance video jobs are priced at it. There is nothing to sign or switch on.

  4. 4

    Check the quote

    Each create response shows the job's price before it runs, so you can see the discount on every clip.

Volume pricing for the Seedance API (21 October 2026)

The more you top up, the less Seedance video costs. Your tier comes from the token top-ups you paid for in the last 30 days. It lowers the per-second price of Seedance video and raises your video request limit, automatically, with no contract and no sales call. If your top-ups drop, the tier moves back down.

One 5-second clip on each tier

List price and the price on each paid tier, for every model at 720p and 1080p.

Seedance 2.5, 1080p$2.25$2.15$2.10$2.05

A dash means no lower price is shown for that tier and setting, because of whole-token rounding or a smaller discount on that setting. Each job's quote shows its exact price.

Seedance 2.0 and 2.5, 720p and above. Top-up columns: 5-second clips each top-up covers, without a video input. Billing is per second of video, so a 10-second clip uses twice the tokens.

What are the Seedance API volume tiers?

There are 4, set by how much you have paid in token top-ups over the last 30 days. Each tier lowers the per-second price of Seedance video and raises how many video jobs you can start a minute. The table below lists them, and which single top-up reaches each one.

Every job's quote shows your price before it runs; a few low-priced settings get a smaller discount. Smaller top-ups add up toward a tier too. Price comparisons on this site use list prices unless a price is marked as at volume. Need more than Enterprise? Email support@kreatorflow.ai.

  • Standard: Any · List price · 20 video requests a minute
  • Scale: $1,000+ · up to 5% off · 60 video requests a minute
  • Growth: $2,500+ · up to 7.5% off · 120 video requests a minute
  • Enterprise: $5,000+ · up to 10% off · 300 video requests a minute

How does the 30-day window work?

It is a rolling window. On any day, your tier is set by the top-ups you paid for in the 30 days before it. Top-ups count from the day they are paid. The discount is applied when each video job is priced, at the tier your account is on at that moment.

If your top-ups in the window drop below a tier's threshold, the account moves down to the tier it still reaches. That keeps it fair in both directions: a busy month is rewarded straight away, and nobody is locked into a commitment for a quiet one.

How do I reach a tier?

With one top-up of the right size, or with several smaller ones in the same window:

  • Scale (5%): one Volume top-up of $1,250, or any mix of top-ups that adds up to $1,000 in 30 days
  • Growth (7.5%): one Volume+ top-up of $2,500, or any mix of top-ups that adds up to $2,500 in 30 days
  • Enterprise (10%): one Enterprise top-up of $5,000, or any mix of top-ups that adds up to $5,000 in 30 days

What does the discount apply to?

Seedance video: new jobs on POST /v1/videos and POST /v1/video-edits, on every Seedance model and resolution the API offers. The video rate limit goes up with the tier too. Image, speech and sound jobs stay at their list price.

The percentage is the most a tier takes off. Most settings get the full discount; a few low-priced settings get a smaller one. You never have to work it out: the create response quotes the exact price of each job before it runs.

What does volume pricing save in practice?

Take Seedance 2.0 at 1080p. A 5-second clip is $1.20 at list price and $1.10 on Enterprise. Across 1,000 of those clips, that is $1,200 at list against $1,100 at volume.

The higher rate limit matters as much for some teams. A product that starts many videos at once, such as a batch tool, an ad generator or an app with spikes of users, can queue more jobs a minute without hitting 429 responses.

How should I plan top-ups around the tiers?

A few practical rules from how the tiers work:

  • If your monthly spend is close to a threshold, one top-up that crosses it lowers the price of every video job you start while it counts
  • Buy tokens for the work you expect, not to chase a tier: unused tokens are still prepaid money
  • Watch the window: a tier comes from the last 30 days of top-ups, so steady monthly top-ups keep it
  • Budget at list price and treat the discount as savings; that way a quiet month never breaks a budget
  • Draft at 720p or on a faster model and render finals at 1080p; the discount applies to both

What if I need more than Enterprise?

Email support@kreatorflow.ai with your expected monthly volume, the models and resolutions you use and how many jobs you start a minute at peak. Higher limits and terms for very large workloads are agreed one by one.

How does this compare with other Seedance APIs?

Our comparison pages use list prices unless a price is marked as at volume, and some pages show both. Other providers have their own account discounts and deals, so compare the price you would pay at your volume, for the same model, resolution and length.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Seedance API have volume discounts?

Yes. From $1,000 in paid top-ups over 30 days, Seedance video is up to 5% cheaper per second, rising to up to 10% off from $5,000 (Enterprise). It applies automatically, with no contract.

Do I need a contract or a sales call?

No. Tiers apply on their own when your top-ups reach them. Only workloads beyond Enterprise are agreed by email, at support@kreatorflow.ai.

Do smaller top-ups count toward a tier?

Yes. Every paid top-up in the last 30 days adds up toward the next tier.

What happens if I top up less next month?

Your account moves to the tier your last 30 days of top-ups still reach, and new jobs are priced at that tier. Your token balance stays as it is.

Does the discount apply to images and audio?

No. It applies to Seedance video jobs (POST /v1/videos and /v1/video-edits). Image, speech and sound jobs stay at list price.

Is it the same discount on every setting?

The tier percentage is the most it takes off. Most settings get the full discount and a few low-priced settings get a smaller one. Every job's quote shows its price before it runs.

Do tiers raise the rate limit too?

Yes, from 20 video requests a minute on Standard to 300 on Enterprise.

Pay less as you grow

Start from $20. Volume pricing applies on its own from $1,000 in 30-day top-ups.
