| Which plan to pick | An individual should take Professional: the free redo is worth the extra $10 over Basic. Companies should use the Team plan, where credits never expire and the per-person price drops as you buy more. | Pro covers most sellers who design regularly and need print-quality exports. Only move to Expert or Max if you generate lots of AI product images or video every week. Monthly billing costs roughly a third more than yearly. | There's nothing to buy for the names themselves. If you want a logo for the name you pick, Brandmark sells one-off logo packages from $35, but you can take the name anywhere. |
