Subscription face swap review

Vidqu

Photo, video & GIF swaps · credits roll over

Vidqu is a browser face swap service sold as monthly, half-yearly or annual credit subscriptions, and credits you do not use carry into the next billing cycle. The free tier stamps a watermark on downloads and caps each video at 100 MB, so treat it as a preview rather than a source of finished files.

Vidqu covers photo, video, GIF and group swaps from one account, and its billing has two rare safeguards: credits roll over and long plans come with a 7-day refund window. Free downloads are watermarked, so judge it on a single monthly plan before committing to six or twelve months.

01Vidqu overview

Vidqu suits someone who swaps faces every week rather than once. According to the official pricing page (checked 27 Oct 2026), the monthly plan gives 80 credits for US$9.99, about RM 40.80, against a crossed-out US$12.99. Unused credits move into the next cycle instead of vanishing, which helps when a busy month is followed by a quiet one. When you cancel, the balance stays usable until the paid period ends, then expires.

The weak spot is the free tier. Downloads carry a watermark, each video upload is capped at 100 MB, and free video swaps process only the opening part of a clip without stating how many seconds. Half-yearly and annual buyers can claim a full refund if they use less than 10% of their credits within 7 days, so the safest path is one paid month first, then a longer plan once the results hold up.

05Vidqu privacy and uploads

Vidqu Inc.'s privacy policy, dated October 2024, lists the images, videos, voice and text you submit as collected data, next to account details, usage analytics and IP logs. It sets no fixed deletion period for uploads and says data is kept according to customer instructions and the applicable terms. The face swap page promises that uploads are not saved, but the policy itself does not repeat that promise.

Card payments run through a third-party processor, and the policy states that personal data is not sold to other companies. Feed Vidqu only your own face or the faces of people who agreed to the swap. Before uploading anything personal, read our face swap safety guide on what to check in a service's data rules.

06Photo, video, GIF and group swaps in Vidqu

Vidqu face swap tools are spread across separate pages of the same site: a standard photo and video swapper, a GIF page that works without sign-up, and a multiple face mode for group shots. In group mode you add one replacement face per person the tool detects; faces it cannot detect stay unchanged, and no maximum number of faces is published.

  • Images: JPG, PNG, WEBP and GIF
  • Video: MP4, MOV, M4V and WEBM
  • Free video uploads: up to 100 MB per file
  • Free downloads: watermarked; paid plans remove the mark

On the free tier, a video swap covers only the opening part of the clip. That is enough to judge skin tone and edge blending, not to deliver a finished edit. If animated memes are your main goal, compare it with the GIF face swap roundup; for longer footage, the video face swap shortlist lists services that publish their length limits.

07How Vidqu credits, renewals and refunds work

Vidqu sells time-based plans that refill a credit balance, billed monthly, every six months or once a year. Each job spends credits at a rate set by the tool: the pricing page lists 3 credits per generated image and 5 to 15 credits per animated video, depending on the model. The face swap rate per second of video is not printed there, so check the cost shown before you press generate.

  • Unused credits roll into the next billing cycle
  • Cancelling keeps your credits until the paid period ends
  • Half-yearly and annual: full refund if under 10% of credits are used within 7 days
  • Forgot to cancel and used nothing after renewal: refund possible
  • Price rises: at least 7 days' notice, applied at the next renewal

Outside those cases, payments are non-refundable unless the law says otherwise, and requests go through in-app feedback or the support email. That makes a free run worth doing first: push one short clip through to the watermarked download and confirm the result before you pay.

08When a different tool suits you better than Vidqu

A rolling subscription only pays off with regular use. For one or two swaps a year, PixNova's pay-once packs keep their credits with no expiry date. Big group photos are better handled by tools that state a face limit, compared in our multiple face swap picks, and our scoring method explains what the provisional ratings measure.

10Vidqu FAQ

How much does Vidqu cost in Malaysia?

The monthly plan is listed at US$9.99 for 80 credits, about RM 40.80 at the BNM rate of 26 Oct 2026, down from a list price of US$12.99. Half-yearly and annual plans bill once per period and carry more credits. Vidqu charges in US dollars, so the final ringgit amount depends on your card's exchange rate.

Does Vidqu put a watermark on face swaps?

On the free tier, yes: the pricing page lists watermarked downloads for free users and clean files on every paid plan. Some Vidqu landing pages advertise swaps without a watermark, but the pricing page is the one tied to your account, so expect a mark until you subscribe.

Can I get a refund from Vidqu?

Only in set cases. Half-yearly and annual subscribers get a full refund if they used less than 10% of their credits within 7 days of paying. If a renewal went through because you forgot to cancel and you have not spent any credits since, you can also ask for your money back. Credits already spent are never refunded.

What happens to my Vidqu credits if I cancel?

Cancelling stops the next renewal, not the current period. Your remaining credits stay usable until the paid period ends and then expire, so spend them before that date. While the subscription is active, credits you leave unused in one cycle carry over to the next instead of resetting to zero.

How many faces can Vidqu swap in a group photo?

Vidqu does not publish a cap. Its group mode asks for one replacement face for each person it detects, and anyone it misses keeps their original face. Group GIFs and videos follow the same rule. With a large group, check which faces were detected on the preview before you spend credits on the full result.
