BookCoverAI · Marketing & Content / Design & CreativeRegistered business, per month

sticker $3.99/mo · ₹4,687/yr
₹461/mo if you can't reclaim GST
BookCoverAI advertises $3.99/mo. A GST-registered business in India pays about ₹391 a month (₹4,687/yr) once the roughly 3.5% card forex markup is added, and it reclaims GST as input credit. If you cannot reclaim GST, it is about ₹461 a month with 18% GST on top.
Sticker price on the left, and the India cost per month for a GST-registered business on the right, after the card forex markup. GST is reclaimable input credit if you are registered.
One-time pack of 40 credits, no subscription. The vendor frames it as one print-ready paperback or hardcover cover download (30 credits) plus 10 Draft generations (1 credit each). Includes commercial publishing use of downloaded covers. The pricing card does not repeat the never-expire promise shown on the larger packs.
One-time pack of 120 credits, no subscription. The vendor pitches it as about 3 complete book projects, up to 4 print-ready downloads at 30 credits each or up to 120 Draft generations. Marked Popular, about 17% cheaper per credit than Starter. Credits never expire.
One-time pack of 350 credits, no subscription. Up to 11 print-ready downloads at 30 credits each or up to 350 Draft generations. The vendor calls it best value, about 37% cheaper per credit than Starter. Credits never expire.
You buy one-time US dollar credit packs, and every generation and print export spends credits, with a print-ready paperback or hardcover download costing 30 times a Draft generation. The site does not mention GST, does not state the free signup credits on the pricing page (the site config shows 5 credits that expire after 30 days), and the smallest pack is not labelled as never expiring while the refund policy says some packs may expire. Change-of-mind cash refunds only apply to a pack with zero credits used, requested within 14 days; billing errors and legally required refunds are handled separately.
BookCoverAI bills in USD, so an Indian card charges about 3.5% over the mid-market rate on every payment. This is the real, unavoidable India premium, and unlike GST it is not reclaimable.
18% GST applies, but it is not a flat add-on. A GST-registered business reclaims it as input credit, and foreign B2B is reverse-charged so the vendor bills no GST. Only an unregistered buyer bears the full 18%, and some Indian vendors already include it.
Indicative, not a bill. The exchange rate is a single mid-market reference, not a live feed. Confirm current pricing on the vendor site. Pricing last verified Oct 12, 2026.
