Is Wondershare Filmora free?

The download and the basic editor cost nothing. The catch shows up at export.

Filmora is free to download and edit with, but free exports carry a watermark, so pay only when you need clean exports. Wondershare’s pricing page states that the free version includes all basic editing features and adds a watermark to exported files. Every paid plan lists Export Without Watermark. The Mac App Store build is free with in-app purchases. All Wondershare purchases carry a 30-day money-back guarantee. Any site offering an unlocked or cracked Filmora is not a Wondershare license.

Every paid plan exports without a watermark, and Advanced adds 1,000 AI credits monthly.

Which Wondershare Filmora plan should you pick?

Each plan removes the watermark. They differ in AI credits, cloud storage and how upgrades work.

Plan Billing Best for
Free version No charge Trying the editor; exports carry a watermark
Basic Yearly subscription Watermark-free exports, 1 GB cloud storage and creative assets
Advanced Yearly subscription Everything in Basic plus 1,000 AI credits a month and 10 GB cloud storage
