Pre-paid packages
This works just like a pre-paid phone card. Estimate the number of render hours you need, and buy them in bulk to save up to 67% of standard per-hour rates.

About Render Credits
Render time is purchased in "render credits" that can be used for any render software we support. One credit is 1 hour of rendering on one processor (core) for all software except Mental Ray. Mental Ray is 1.25 credits per processor hour.

FREE BONUS! All Pre-paid packages come with the option of a FREE month of our "Rocket Club" feature described below.

Pre-Paid Package list
Pre-pay Credits $/Credit Save
$495 375 $1.32 12%
$995 800 $1.24 17%
$2,495 2495 $1.00 33%
$4,995 6700 $0.75 50%
$9,995 20000 $0.50 67%
(1 render credit = 1 processor hour for all softare except Mental Ray. Mental Ray is 1.25 credits per processor hour)

Join the "Rocket Club"

As a bonus to our loyal customers, we offer 2 very powerful features for only USD $29.95 per month (FREE first month with pre-paid package purchase):

50% Discount Low-Priority Renders
This innovative Render Rocket feature allows customers to choose to launch their jobs in "low-priority" mode. This will discount that cost of that job by 50%.

What's the catch? Low-priority jobs are queued behind standard jobs meaning a possible longer turn around, but for tests and non-critical renders this is a great option to help stetch your rendering dollars. With proper scheduling, this means you can get half off all your render jobs!

Discount Lock on Pre-paid packages
This feature "locks" your pre-paid package discounts even after you use up your credits. For example, if you purchase a 2495 credit package giving you $1.00 per credit rate, you will keep that rate as long as your Rocket Club membership is active.

Priority Reservation

Reserve a fixed number of processors for a day, week or month. This option is similar to physically renting servers except you let us worry about setup, software, power, cooling, maintenance and support. Larger 3D teams and studios often prefer this option because they receive priority access to the processors. In all our other plans, your render jobs share farm time with other users, but with priority reservation, you get full 24-hour access to your reserved processors.

"Turbo" Option
You are not limited to only your reserved processors for your jobs. At any time, you can click the "turbo" button and your job will take advantage of all available processors on our farm. This gives you the best of both worlds: guaranteed priority on your reserved processors and scalable power when you need it. (additional time is billed as on-demand hourly)
