Converting and editing PDFs does not 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 who want 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 will dive into our Credit-based pricing model, explain what Credits are, show our premium plans with current prices, and help you choose the right plan. Let's get started!
What Are Credits?
Credits are the digital currency of the PDF2Go platform. They act 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 makes pricing fair and transparent, as the cost is directly linked to the complexity of the task.
- Most tasks consume 1 Credit every 30 seconds, and over 90% of tasks are completed within this time, 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. This is an ideal way to evaluate the platform before choosing a premium plan.
PDF2Go's Premium Plans: Subscriptions and Pay As You Go Packages
PDF2Go offers two main types of premium plans: Subscriptions (monthly or annual) and Pay As You Go Packages.
Here is a detailed look at each option, including their pricing:
1. Subscription Plans
Subscriptions are ideal for regular users who need ongoing access to PDF2Go's features. They provide a set number of Credits each month. Unused Credits do not roll over to the next billing cycle.
Monthly Subscription Plans
| Credits | Price (EUR) | Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| 480 | €8 | $8 |
| 2,800 | €28 | $29 |
| 5,100 | €47 | $49 |
| 10,000 | €85 | $89 |
| 25,000 | €187 | $197 |
| 40,000 | €280 | $295 |
| 100,000 | €615 | $647 |
Annual Subscription Plans
Annual subscriptions offer significant savings compared to monthly plans, making them a great choice for users who plan to use PDF2Go long term.
| Credits | Price (EUR) | Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| 480 | €77 | $77 |
| 2,800 | €269 | $278 |
| 5,100 | €451 | $470 |

| 100,000 | €5,904 | $6,211 |
Why Choose a Subscription?
- Cost Savings: Up to 45% cheaper per Credit compared to Pay As You Go packages.
- Predictable Billing: Ideal for users with consistent PDF conversion and editing needs, such as businesses or professionals.
2. Pay As You Go Packages
Pay As You Go packages are perfect for occasional users or those with irregular 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 do not 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 are used as a backup, so you keep uninterrupted access to PDF2Go's tools. This setup suits users with changing needs, combining the savings of subscriptions with the flexibility of PAYG.
