Frequently Asked Questions
How does the token quota work?
Plans use a monthly token-based quota: Plus ~1.7B, Max ~5.1B, Ultra ~12.5B tokens per month for M3 usage. Actual consumption depends on context length; image and speech models share the same quota.
What happened to the Starter and Max HS tiers?
Both were retired. Starter ($10) and Plus-hs ($40) remain only as legacy tiers for existing subscribers; Max HS ($80) users were migrated to the new Max tier ($50). The current lineup is Plus $20 / Max $50 / Ultra $120.
Can I still generate music?
No. All Music models stopped serving on Aug 20, 2026 in Token Plan and pay-as-you-go. The open-source MiniMax-Music3 weights are available on HuggingFace for self-hosting.
Can I top up when the plan quota runs out?
Yes. Three credit packs are available: Starter $5 (5,000 credits), Advanced $25 (25,000 credits) and Premium $100 (100,000 credits). They are valid for one year from purchase, can be stacked, and can automatically top up the plan quota once it is exhausted; the monthly quota itself is capped by a 5-hour window and a weekly window, and unused quota does not roll over.
Is annual billing worth it?
Annual plans cost $220 (Plus) to $1,320 (Ultra), effectively 2 months free compared to monthly billing.
