Yes. Filmora offers a monthly subscription, but it also has annual subscriptions and a one-time perpetual license. The key difference is not just how often you pay: subscriptions include upgrades while active, whereas the perpetual license covers the version you buy and excludes future major versions.

What Filmora’s plans cost in the US

Wondershare’s US pricing pages displayed the following offers on October 7, 2026. These are vendor-listed prices, not guaranteed future prices; offers can differ between official pages, and prices vary by region. Confirm the amount and terms shown at checkout for your location.

Plan Displayed US price Billing and access
Monthly US$19.99 per month on the official store page Recurring monthly payment; the store says it can be canceled at any time.
Basic annual US$49.99 per year on the official plan comparison Subscription billed annually, with automatic renewal shown in the comparison.
Advanced annual US$59.99 per year on the official plan comparison Subscription billed annually, with automatic renewal shown in the comparison.
Perpetual US$79.99 one time on the official plan comparison One-time payment for the licensed version; future versions are not included.

The official store page and plan comparison do not present identical pricing details, so treat each figure as the offer shown on the page cited rather than assuming every checkout will display the same deal. Wondershare Filmora store · Wondershare Filmora plan comparison

Is an annual plan billed monthly?

No. An annual plan charges once per year, even if its marketing presents a monthly-equivalent amount. Dividing an annual price by 12 can help compare costs, but it does not change when the payment is collected. Check the checkout summary for the actual billing cadence and renewal terms.

What does the perpetual license include?

Perpetual means continued access to the specific version covered by the license, not free access to every future major release. Wondershare’s store says the license includes updates for the purchased version, while future versions require a new plan. The current plan comparison likewise limits the perpetual plan’s updates to Filmora 16. Wondershare’s perpetual-license terms

By contrast, Wondershare’s subscription FAQ says subscriptions include updates and upgrades during the active subscription period. That makes the practical distinction straightforward: choose a subscription if access to covered upgrades while paying is important; consider perpetual if you prefer a one-time payment and are comfortable with the version boundary.

Check device compatibility before choosing

Plan terms are not interchangeable across platforms. Wondershare’s store states that its perpetual license is OS-specific, while its Basic and Advanced FAQ lists Windows and Mac support. Verify the platform, license, and device limits on the plan page and checkout before buying, especially if you expect to move between operating systems.

Are Creative Assets included?

Filmora Creative Assets is a separate effects-library subscription, not the same thing as a Filmora editor license. Wondershare lists monthly, quarterly, and annual options. During an active subscription, subscribers can use and export subscribed assets; after it expires, they can still use the assets but cannot export them. Optional add-ons such as Creative Assets or AI Portrait may therefore add charges beyond the editor plan. Wondershare Filmora Creative Assets

Which billing option should you choose?

  • Choose monthly if you need the editor for a shorter period and want monthly billing; check the current cancellation and renewal terms before purchase.
  • Choose annual if a year of access suits your project schedule and you accept an annual charge and renewal. Do not mistake a monthly-equivalent display for monthly billing.
  • Choose perpetual if you want to pay once for a particular version and understand that future major versions are excluded.

Compare the expected time you will use Filmora, the total charges over that period, upgrade access, and compatibility with your operating system. Pricing and plan presentation are region- and offer-sensitive, so the regional checkout page is the final reference for your purchase.

Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date/time indicated and are subject to change. Any price and availability information displayed on Amazon at the time of purchase will apply.
