# Plans & Pricing

Source: https://docs.skaz.io/plans

> Skaz plans compared: Free, Creator, Studio and Team. Story and play limits, which features each plan unlocks, and promo codes.

Every account is on a plan that decides how many stories you can have, how
many times they can be played, and which features are switched on. Your current
plan is shown on your profile badge on the Studio dashboard.

| | Free | Creator | Studio | Team |

Annual billing is cheaper than paying monthly on every paid plan. Prices are
also shown in EUR, RUB, and CNY — switch currency in the pricing section on
[skaz.io](https://skaz.io/#pricing).

> Everyone who joined during the beta keeps **Creator** free, forever. If you're
> one of them and also pay for a plan, you get whichever is more generous on each
> line of the table — never less than Creator.

## Story limits

Your story count includes every story you own, published or not. Stories shared
with you through a [team](/guide/teams) don't count. When you hit your plan's
limit, creating a new story is blocked and you're offered an upgrade instead. You
don't lose access to any story you already have — you just can't create new ones
until you upgrade.

> There's currently no way to delete a story, so freeing up a slot isn't
> possible yet — upgrading is the only way past the limit.

## Plays per month

On Free, your stories can be started **100 times a month** between them. The
count resets on the first of each month. Once it's used up, new players see a
message that the author has reached their monthly limit; anyone already in the
middle of a story finishes it. Paid plans have no cap.

## Upgrading

Click **Upgrade plan** from the story-limit prompt (or from the AI co-writer
panel on a free account), or go straight to
[skaz.io/#pricing](https://skaz.io/#pricing) and pick a plan.

> Skaz is in beta and paid billing isn't switched on yet — the checkout page is
> a placeholder for now. Everyone who joins during the beta keeps Creator-tier
> access free while we build it out.

## Promo codes

If you have a promo code, redeem it at
[skaz.io/redeem](https://skaz.io/redeem) (you'll be asked to sign in first if
you aren't already). You can also reach it from the **ticket icon** on your
profile badge in Studio.

There are two kinds of code:

- **Plan codes** grant you a plan — for example, Studio for 30 days — free of
  charge. The upgrade takes effect immediately: the moment you redeem, your
  account switches to that plan, and after the code's period ends it
  automatically reverts to whatever plan you had before (or Free).
- **Discount codes** take a percentage off a paid plan. They're saved to your
  account and will apply automatically at checkout once paid billing is live.

Enter the code and press **Activate**. You'll see exactly what it granted, and
you're taken straight to Studio to start using it.

> Each code can be used once per account. A code may also have a limited number
> of total uses or an expiry date set by whoever issued it — if it's run out or
> lapsed, you'll see a message saying so.
