Pixelcut pricing
Pixelcut's cheapest paid plan is Pro at $10 a month billed monthly, or $8 a month billed yearly.
Free plan: A Free plan with limited background removal, Magic Eraser, Fast Upscaler, Generative Fill and Expand Image (the help center says free users typically get 3 uses a day), exports without a watermark, and no AI Backgrounds, Pro Eraser or AI credits.

Before you pay
- What credits buy depends on the model: by our calculation from the pricing page, Pro's 600 credits make about 40 Nano Banana 2.1 images, 20 Nano Banana Pro, 50 Flux 2 Pro, 600 Flux 2 Klein 4B or 6 ChatGPT Image 2 images, or one 5-second Veo 3.1 clip. The page's 'How do credits work?' table counts images and videos under the heading 'Business Plan' for the largest Business step (180,000 credits, $1,200 a month), 50 times the 3,600 credits of the $30 Business plan. The help center says plan credits reset with each billing cycle (600 a month on yearly Pro too) and are charged even when content moderation blocks a finished generation.
- Extra credits: the help center's top-up article (last updated June 2025) says automatic top-up charges your saved payment method $10 for 2,000 credits each time credits run low, up to a monthly spend limit you set, and the US App Store sells 2,000 credits for $9.99 and 1,000 for $4.99. Pixelcut's pricing page and help center do not say whether top-up credits expire.
- The Free plan is limited: the help center says free users typically get 3 uses a day, Free has no AI Backgrounds, Pro Eraser or credits, and the pricing page lists a commercial license only on Pro and Business (the help center's commercial-use article names no plan). Pixelcut's pages also disagree on free exports: the pricing FAQ lists HD exports among what Pro unlocks, while the background remover and upscaler pages promise free HD downloads with no watermark and no sign-up; in April 2025 Danny Maiorca could download only a preview-resolution image without an account.
- Paid plans have caps too: the no-credit generative tools are limited to an estimated 300 a day on Pro (up to 1,200 on Business), and batch exports to 1,000 a month on Pro and 2,000 on the $30 Business plan, though the bulk editor page advertises up to 10,000 images in one batch.
- Renewals and refunds: subscriptions renew automatically, and cancelling keeps access until the end of the period paid for, with no prorated refunds. Refunds for App Store purchases come only from Apple; Google handles Google Play refunds, though the help center says Pixelcut has more flexibility to help directly with Google Play and web purchases, and web subscribers request one from Billing in their settings. The terms (latest update May 18, 2026) have no refund clause and describe only App Store subscriptions, which renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. The help center says prices may differ between iOS, Android and the web and mentions weekly subscriptions that the pricing page does not list.
- Training on uploads is not addressed: the terms give Pixelcut a licence to process your content only to run and maintain the service, the help center says your projects stay private, and the upscaler page says Pixelcut does not reuse your content in any way and deletes files from its servers within 24 hours, but neither the terms nor the privacy policy (both updated May 18, 2026) says whether uploads are used to train AI models, and the privacy policy names no AI model provider, though the pricing page says credits are used particularly for models from third-party partners, and its table lists models such as Google's Nano Banana, OpenAI's ChatGPT Image and Black Forest Labs' Flux.
- Pixelcut's own pages disagree in places: the help center still names Pro, Pro+ and Max plans and older models such as Imagen 3 and Veo2; its batch article says batches only remove backgrounds and upscale, while the bulk page lists resizing, watermarks, logos, shadows and more; and it gives the upscaler a maximum of 6,000 by 6,000 pixels while the upscaler page claims 16K (with the Topaz Labs model, its FAQ says). Pixelcut rebranded to Pixa in February 2026 and back to Pixelcut in May 2026 (its about page says), and pixa.com now reads 'Something new is coming' and points photo-editor users to pixelcut.ai.
- The cited tests are from April, August and November 2025, before the FLUX.2 models (November and December 2025), the Video Background Remover (January 2026) and the Pixa rename, and all ran on free use: MakeUseOf's two cover only the free background remover and 2x upscaler on the web, on photos of animals rather than products, and Shotkit's India Mantle tried the generative tools within a free account's three uses a day, finding templated backgrounds blurred, object replacement and image expansion in need of several retries, a lagging editor and a mobile app that sometimes failed to load. Trustpilot rates Pixelcut 1.7 out of 5 from 69 reviews on an unclaimed profile that does not invite reviews; its 20 newest are all unprompted one-star reviews, among them complaints of charges after a trial or a cancellation, refunds passed back to Apple or Google, credits used up quickly and batch-export limits. The US App Store rates the iPhone app 4.7 from 221,134 ratings and Google Play 4.2 from 245,113.
