Shopify describes the BFCM period as five days from Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday (read 2026-10-04). A daily creative sprint of 22 clips at 8 seconds, 720p, 9:16 costs $101.6928 on Sume with Seedance 2.5, at $4.6224 per clip.

The plan adds a few clips on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, the days that most need a fresh offer.

Daily plan

An 8-second 9:16 clip at 720p is 172,800 tokens, and 172,800 x $0.0214 / 1,000 x 1.25 = $4.6224. Multiply by the day's count.

Why prepare the wallet first

These are same-week renders, so a low balance mid-sprint means a 402 and a delay on the day that counts. Each job holds its estimate at submit. Fund the wallet for the whole week before Thursday.

The five-day total is $101.6928. With one retake for every four clips, add $23.112 for a total of $124.8048. See the credits docs for top-ups.

What a sprint day looks like

Render early. A job queues behind your plan's concurrent limit, which is 4 on Pro, 8 on Startup and 20 on Scale. Six clips on Pro run in two waves.

Keep one master prompt per concept and change only the offer line. That keeps the look consistent while the price copy changes.

Checks

  • Confirm your offer terms and end times in the final frames.
  • Review each render before it goes live, as ad platforms review claims.
  • Keep last year's results, if any, beside this plan.
