MakeUGC pricing: plans, credits and the $1 trial vs hiring a creator
Published 2026-11-13
MakeUGC makes UGC-style video ads with AI actors instead of real creators. That means you pay a monthly subscription, not a fee per video. On November 13, 2026 we read MakeUGC’s pricing page and compared it with what UGC creators on Fiverr charge in our own samples. We have not tested MakeUGC’s output ourselves, so this guide covers price and fit, not video quality.
The short answer
- Three plans, billed monthly: Starter US$59, Growth US$79 and Pro US$149 a month. Paying quarterly or yearly costs less.
- You can try any plan for US$1. It renews at the plan price unless you cancel, so check the trial length at checkout.
- Plans are sold in credits, not videos. MakeUGC says each generation costs credits based on its model, length and resolution, so there is no fixed number of videos per plan.
MakeUGC plans at a glance
| Starter | Growth | Pro | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly | $59/mo | $79/mo | $149/mo |
| Yearly | $29/mo | $39/mo | $79/mo |
| Credits a month | 500 | 1,000 | 2k–5k |
| Export | Up to 720p | Up to 4K | Up to 4K |

| Videos at once | 1 | 10 | No limit |
From MakeUGC’s pricing page, checked November 13, 2026. Prices are in US dollars per month. An Enterprise plan has custom pricing. MakeUGC says quarterly billing saves up to 31% and yearly billing up to 51% compared with monthly. Prices and plans can change, so check the page before you buy.
All three plans list the same core tools, including 50+ languages, product-in-hand videos, ad remakes, batch mode and watermark-free exports. API access is included and uses the same credits. Credits refresh each month and, according to MakeUGC’s FAQ, don’t roll over.
How the credits work
MakeUGC’s FAQ says each generation costs credits based on the model, the video length and the resolution. That has three practical effects:
- There is no fixed price per video. A short, low-resolution clip uses fewer credits than a long one in 4K.
- Unused credits are lost. They refresh monthly and don’t carry over, so a plan you barely use is expensive per video.
- Test before you commit. The US$1 trial is the cheapest way to see how many credits your kind of video actually uses.
MakeUGC vs hiring a creator on Fiverr
We have read the package data of hundreds of Fiverr UGC gigs for this site. In our main sample of 50 listings, the median starting price was US$70 per video. In our industry samples, the median basic package ranged from US$55 for fashion to US$80 for supplements and pet products.
| Fiverr UGC creator | MakeUGC | |
|---|---|---|
| How you pay | Per video, median start US$70 in our sample | US$59–149 a month billed monthly, less on longer billing |
| What US$59–70 gets you | About one basic video from a median-priced creator | One month of Starter credits |
| Who is on camera | A real person | An AI actor |
| Real product use | Yes, if you ship the product first | No one physically uses it. MakeUGC lists a “Product in Hand” feature for showing your product |
| Can it be a testimonial? | Yes, if the creator really used the product | No. An AI actor is not a customer |
| Changes and variations | Usually 0–1 revisions in the basic package | Generate again with the credits you have left |
| Usage rights | Often 3 months in the basic package | Check MakeUGC’s terms for your plan |

When MakeUGC makes sense
- You want to test many hooks. Our script research found that none of the 30 basic Fiverr packages we checked included extra hooks. With credits, you can try several openings before paying a person.
- You need several languages. MakeUGC lists 50+ languages. A human creator speaks the languages they speak.
- The video explains rather than vouches. A product demo, a feature walkthrough or an offer announcement doesn’t need someone to have used the product.
When a real creator is the better buy
- You need a testimonial. The FTC’s rule on fake reviews and testimonials covers testimonials by people who don’t exist, such as AI-generated ones. An AI actor can’t say “I’ve used this for a month.”
- The product has to be touched, tasted or worn. For skincare, food or clothing, viewers want a real reaction and real fit.
- You only need one or two videos. A single Fiverr order can cost about the same as one month of Starter, with nothing left unused.
Many brands combine the two: draft hooks with AI, test them in a small ad, then pay a creator to film the winner with the real product. Our ad testing guide shows how to run that test, and AI UGC vs real creators covers the research on how viewers respond.
Before you start the US$1 trial
- Note the trial length and renewal price shown at checkout, and set a reminder before it ends.
- Pick a plan by export quality first. Starter exports up to 720p.
- Make one video of the kind you actually need, and check how many credits it used.
- Read MakeUGC’s terms on how you can use the videos, and label AI content where the platform requires it.
- Cancel from your account settings if it isn’t right. MakeUGC says access continues until the end of the paid period.

Common questions
How much does MakeUGC cost?
On November 13, 2026, its plans were US$59, US$79 and US$149 a month billed monthly, or US$29, US$39 and US$79 a month billed yearly. Every plan could be tried for US$1, renewing at the plan price unless cancelled.
How many videos do you get on MakeUGC?
MakeUGC doesn’t list a fixed number. Plans come with monthly credits (500, 1,000 or 2,000–5,000), and each generation uses credits depending on the model, length and resolution.
Is MakeUGC cheaper than a UGC creator?
It depends on volume. Starter at US$59 a month costs a little less than one median Fiverr video in our sample (US$70). If you need many variations, a subscription can work out cheaper per video. If you need one testimonial, a real creator is the right choice anyway.
Can I use MakeUGC videos as customer reviews?
No. An AI actor has never used your product, so its video must not be presented as a real customer or a real result.
