Quick answer
Gamma has four individual plans in 2026: Free, Plus at $9 per seat per month, Pro at $18, and Ultra at $90, all billed yearly. Paying monthly, they are $12, $25, and $100. For organizations there is Business at $40 per seat per month billed yearly, and a custom Enterprise plan.
The free tier gives you 400 AI credits at signup, and those credits do not refresh — once they are gone, you upgrade or stop generating. For most individual users, Plus is the right starting point: it removes Gamma branding, gives 1,000 credits a month, and raises the limit to 100 slides per prompt. Pro is worth it if you need premium AI image models, custom branding, detailed analytics, or 4,000 credits a month. Prices were checked on gamma.app on October 26, 2026.
All Gamma plans at a glance
Gamma sells individual plans (Free, Plus, Pro, Ultra) and organization plans (Business and Enterprise). Annual billing saves up to 28% on the individual plans. Prices are per seat, in USD, and subject to tax depending on your location; current details are on gamma.app/pricing.
One change from earlier in the year: Gamma's free plan now exports to PDF, PowerPoint, PNG, and Google Slides, so export is no longer the reason to upgrade. The reasons to pay are credits, branding, slides per prompt, and the image models you get.
| Plan | Monthly billing | Annual billing | AI credits | Who it's for |

| Pro | $25/seat | $18/seat ($216/yr) | 4,000/mo | Client-facing work, premium images, analytics |

| Business | — | $40/seat ($480/yr) | 10,000/seat/mo | Organizations needing SSO and data controls |
| Enterprise | Custom | Custom | Custom | Large organizations, invoiced billing |
How Gamma's credit system works
Credits are the unit Gamma uses for anything AI generates or modifies. Gamma's help center says generation is metered per slide and per image, and that the cost also depends on the AI model and how long or complex the generation is — so there is no single price per presentation.
The only published numbers are in Gamma's developer documentation: about 1 to 5 credits per card for text, and images from about 2 credits each on basic models up to 30–125 on the most advanced ones. Its example puts a 10-card deck with five basic-model images at roughly 20 to 60 credits. Treat that as a rough guide for the app. The practical point is that images, especially on premium models, are what make credits disappear.
**Credit rollover:** on paid plans, unused plan credits roll over up to double your plan size. A monthly Plus user with 1,000 credits can hold at most 2,000 plan credits at a time.
**Free plan credits never refresh.** The 400 credits at signup are a one-time allocation. Free accounts can earn 200 credits per referral, up to 2,000 at a time.
**Buying more:** paid plans can buy 1,500 extra credits for $6, with no cap on purchased credits and an optional auto-recharge. Free users cannot buy credits. If you are buying add-ons every month on Plus, compare the total with the step up to Pro, which quadruples the monthly allowance.
The free plan: how long it actually lasts
Gamma's free plan is a genuine trial, and now a usable one for light work. You get 400 credits at signup, up to 10 slides per prompt, simple presentations, documents, websites, social posts, and images, import from PDF and PowerPoint, and export to PDF, PowerPoint, PNG, and Google Slides.
How long the credits last depends on how many slides and images you generate. Text-heavy decks stretch them; decks with several AI images use them up quickly. Users who make one or two decks a month may make the free credits last a long time; active users will run out within weeks.
The main limitations are Gamma branding on what you create, the 10-slide-per-prompt limit, and the basic image models. For students, internal mockups, or decks that will not be shared outside your team, those limits often do not matter. For anything sent to a client or investor, the branding is usually the reason to upgrade.
Certain Gamma card layouts also convert imperfectly to 16:9 PowerPoint slides. If your final deliverable must be a clean PowerPoint file, test the export on a free deck before paying.
Plus vs Pro: how to decide
Plus at $9 per seat per month billed yearly ($12 monthly) is the right default for most individual users. It removes Gamma branding, gives 1,000 credits a month, lets you create up to 100 slides per prompt, and adds advanced AI image models. It costs less than Canva Pro, which is $144 a year in the US (per Canva guide; canva.com/pricing shows regional prices).
Pro at $18 per seat per month billed yearly ($25 monthly) adds four things:
**Credits: 4,000 per month (4× Plus).** If you produce several image-heavy decks a week, Plus's 1,000 credits run short; Pro gives four times the room.
**Premium AI image models.** On slides where image quality shapes the impression — investor decks, sales materials — premium models produce sharper, more realistic results.
**Custom branding.** Pro lets you apply your own branding rather than starting each deck from Gamma's defaults.
**Detailed analytics, advanced sharing, and custom domains.** Pro adds detailed analytics on shared presentations and lets you publish up to 10 custom domains. For sales teams checking whether a proposal was read before a follow-up call, analytics are the most useful difference.
The decision is simple: if you need analytics, custom branding, or premium images, or you keep running out of credits, choose Pro. If you mainly want branding-free work and room for longer decks, Plus is enough. The best AI presentation tools roundup compares Gamma with the alternatives.
Ultra, Business, and Enterprise
Ultra is $90 per seat per month billed yearly, or $100 monthly. It includes 20,000 monthly credits — five times Pro — access to Gamma's most advanced text, image, and video models, up to 100 custom domains, and early access to new features. It makes financial sense for people generating presentations daily at high volume; for an individual making a few decks a week, the credit volume is hard to justify.
Business is $40 per seat per month billed yearly ($480 per seat a year). Each seat gets 10,000 monthly credits, with shared workspace credits for extra usage, plus SSO, advanced data controls, access to the most advanced models, and SOC 2 documentation on request.
Enterprise is custom-priced on an annual agreement and adds custom credits, advanced admin and API governance, SCIM provisioning, purchase orders, and dedicated onboarding. Gamma no longer lists a separate Team plan; small teams can either use individual plans per person or move to Business if they need SSO and pooled credits.
When not to pay for Gamma
Most pricing breakdowns stop before this part. Here is when the cost does not justify the upgrade.
**You make only a handful of presentations a year.** The free plan now exports to PDF and PowerPoint, so if you can live with Gamma branding, the 400 free credits may cover occasional use. Plus at $108 a year is hard to justify for one deck every six weeks.
**Your presentations are primarily data tables and charts.** Gamma handles text-first, narrative slides well. Complex data visualisation — live charts from spreadsheets, conditional formatting — does not import cleanly. If your decks are mostly numbers, Google Slides fits that workflow at no cost, and no Gamma tier fixes the structural gap.
**You need narrated video walkthroughs.** For sales decks that need a recorded walkthrough, Descript handles narrated presentation video directly.
The right time to move from free to Plus is when you have used up your free credits and plan to keep using Gamma, or when you need to share decks without Gamma branding.
Which Gamma plan to choose
For individual users, the choice is almost always between Plus and Pro. Plus at $9 per month billed yearly covers branding-free work, 1,000 monthly credits, and decks up to 100 slides per prompt. Pro at $18 per month billed yearly is worth it for premium images, custom branding, analytics, and 4,000 monthly credits.
For organizations that need SSO, data controls, and pooled credits, Business at $40 per seat billed yearly is the tier to evaluate. The free plan covers evaluation and light use, and now includes exports. Four hundred one-time credits are enough to decide whether Gamma fits your workflow — not enough to run on indefinitely.
