How it's calculated

Credits = credits per second × seconds × clips × (1 + retake %) · USD = credits × price per credit

Published Kling 3.0 rates used here: 6 credits/s (720p, no audio), 12 credits/s (1080p, native audio) and 30 credits/s (4K). Price per credit defaults to the published top-up rate of $1 per 66 credits; you can instead enter your own plan price and credit allowance.

Worked example

You want 4 clips of 10 seconds at 1080p with native audio (12 credits per second).

12 × 10 × 4 = 480 credits. At the top-up rate of $1 per 66 credits that is 480 ÷ 66 ≈ $7.27. If your plan gives you 3,000 credits for $37, each credit is $0.0123 and the same job costs about $5.92.

Limitations

  • Only the three published credit rates are built in; other mode and input combinations (for example video input or motion control) may cost different amounts.
  • Monthly credit allowances per Kling plan were not confirmed from an official page, so enter your own plan values for subscription math.
  • Kling's separate developer API is billed in dollars per second, not credits; see the comparison tool.
  • Credits can expire; unused credits make the real cost per video higher.
