Converting and editing PDFs doesn't have to be complicated or costly. At PDF2Go, our core PDF conversion and editing services are free for everyone with a reliable internet connection—no signup required! For those looking to do more, such as batch processing, handling larger files, or using AI-based tools, our premium plans offer flexible, cost-effective solutions tailored to your needs.
In this blog, we'll dive into our Credit-based pricing model, explain what Credits are, detail our premium plans with current prices, and guide you in choosing the perfect plan. Let's get started!
What Are Credits?
Credits are the digital currency of the PDF2Go platform, acting as tokens that represent the processing power or resources needed to complete a task. Instead of charging per task, we now base costs on processing time. This ensures f airness and transparency, as the cost directly correlates with the complexity of the task.
- Most tasks consume 1 Credit every 30 seconds, and over 90% of tasks are completed within this timeframe, costing just one Credit.
- AI-based tools, such as Speech-to-Text, are more resource-intensive and consume 8 Credits for every 10 seconds processed.
PRO TIP: Sign up for a free PDF2Go account and receive a handful of Credits to explore and test most features at no cost, making it an ideal way to evaluate the platform before committing to a premium plan!

2. Pay As You Go Packages
Pay As You Go packages are perfect for occasional users or those with sporadic needs. You pay a one-time fee for a set number of Credits, and unused Credits roll over to the next month with a one-year expiry. This flexibility makes PAYG packages ideal for users who don't need a recurring subscription.
| Credits | Price (EUR) | Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| 240 | €8 | $8 |
| 480 | €13 | $14 |
| 1,500 | €26 | $27 |
| 2,800 | €47 | $49 |
| 5,100 | €79 | $83 |
| 10,000 | €143 | $151 |
| 25,000 | €318 | $335 |
| 40,000 | €477 | $502 |
| 100,000 | €1,045 | $1,100 |
Why Choose PAYG?
- Flexibility: No recurring commitment–buy Credits as needed.
- Rollover Credits: Unused Credits remain valid for one year, giving you more control.
- Ideal for Occasional Use: Perfect for one-off projects or infrequent tasks.
Can You Combine Subscriptions and PAYG?
Yes! If you have both a subscription and a PAYG package, Credits from your subscription plan are used first. If you run out, your PAYG Credits kick in as a backup, ensuring seamless access to PDF2Go's tools. This hybrid approach is great for users with fluctuating needs, combining the cost savings of subscriptions with the flexibility of PAYG.
