# Pricing — minimax-h3ai.video

> A hosted, browser-only way to run MiniMax H3 (also called Hailuo 3), billed in credits worth one cent each of MiniMax's published list price. Independently operated — not owned by, affiliated with or speaking for MiniMax or Hailuo AI.
> Currency: USD. Human-readable version: https://minimax-h3ai.video/pricing
> Last verified: 2026-09-03 (repriced 2026-09-03 against MiniMax's published list price; anything quoting Lite at $14.90, an 8-second 2K clip at 66 credits, or a 21:9 surcharge is the old table)

Read this first: output from this site may be used commercially on every plan, the free one
included. Clips are generated through MiniMax's API, and MiniMax claims no rights over the Outputs you generate. No watermark on any tier, no per-clip royalty, no separate licence to buy.

## One credit is one cent of MiniMax's list price

This site charges 8 credits for a 768P output second and 13 for a 2K second. MiniMax
publishes its own per-second rate in cents; look it up, multiply by 100, and that is the
credit cost here — the rate table below is checkable against a page this site does not
control. The official figure is not restated here, because a page selling access to a
model has no business quoting its supplier's price list.

## Free

- Price: $0, no card.
- Without an account: nothing generates. You can watch real MiniMax H3 output on the site; a free clip is counted
  per account, so the account has to exist before anything can be counted.
- With a free account: **one real MiniMax H3 clip on sign-up** — 4 seconds, 768P, 16:9, with native sound. It does
  not expire.
- Seven daily check-ins pay 37 credits in total, which is exactly what one more clip at that size costs. The run
  happens once per account and does not renew.
- The free MiniMax H3 clip is a size, not a different model: same H3, capped at 4s · 768P · 16:9 · one at a time.
  Longer, 2K, other ratios, batches, video-to-video and reference-to-video are on paid plans and packs.
- There is no second, cheaper model on this site. One ran here until 2026-09-05 and was removed.

## Plans

All paid plans run MiniMax H3 at up to 2K and up to 15 seconds with native audio. Resolution
and length are never sold as an upgrade. Yearly gives the same monthly credits as monthly,
not fewer. Unused plan credits expire at the end of each period.

| Plan | Monthly | Yearly (per month) | Yearly (charged once) | Credits/month | Concurrent jobs | Batch variants |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Lite | $24.90 | $16.90 | $202.80 | 750 | 1 | 2 |
| Pro | $56.90 | $39.90 | $478.80 | 1,775 | 3 | 4 |
| Studio | $142.90 | $99.90 | $1,198.80 | 4,425 | 8 | 4 |

Included on every paid plan: MiniMax H3 up to 2K, up to 15 seconds, native audio,
7 days of history, failed generations never cost credits, no watermark.

## Credit packs (one-time, pay as you go)

Credits valid 12 months, do not renew. Packs burn at the same rate as every plan.
Clip counts are examples at 4s 768P text-to-video, not a cap.

A pack is the pay-as-you-go rate: **$0.040 a credit, flat across all three sizes and
unlimited to buy.** A monthly plan is $0.032 a credit and a yearly plan $0.022. Bigger
packs are not cheaper per credit, because volume pricing is what a plan is. Held still
at 750 credits, the three prices are $29.90 as a pack, $24.90 a month on Lite, and
$16.90 a month on Lite yearly.

| Pack | Price | Credits | $/credit | Example yield (4s 768P) | Example yield (4s 2K) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Intro | $9.90 | 250 | $0.040 | ~6 videos | ~4 videos |
| Top-up 750 | $29.90 | 750 | $0.040 | ~20 videos | ~13 videos |
| Top-up 2,500 | $99.90 | 2,500 | $0.040 | ~67 videos | ~43 videos |

## Credit burn rate

One rate table for every plan and every pack. A clip costs a flat **5 credits** (the
prompt-understanding step, billed once per clip) plus a per-second rate:

| Output | Per second |
| --- | --- |
| 768P | 8 credits |
| 2K | 13 credits |

The 21:9 cinema ratio costs the same as any other ratio. MiniMax bills per output second
and does not charge for aspect ratio, so neither does this site.

Additional charges:

- Video-to-video and reference-to-video also charge for input video seconds at the
  same per-second rate as the output resolution.
- Reference images: 5 free per request, then 4 credits per extra image ($0.04 at list).
- A batch of N is N clips, so N × the clip price.
- A failed job costs 0 credits on every plan, including free.

## Worked examples

- 4-second 768P clip: 5 + 4 × 8 = **37 credits** on any plan or pack.
- 8-second 768P clip: 5 + 8 × 8 = **69 credits**.
- 8-second 2K clip: 5 + 8 × 13 = **109 credits**. On Pro yearly ($39.90 for 1,775 credits, $0.0225 per credit)
  that is **$2.45**; on Pro monthly ($0.0321 per credit) **$3.49**; on a pack ($0.040 per credit) **$4.36**.
  The credits are identical — what differs is what the credit cost to buy.
- 15-second 2K clip: 5 + 15 × 13 = **200 credits**, at any aspect ratio.
- Pro yearly, 1,775 credits a month: about **47 clips at 4s 768P**, or about **16 clips at 8s 2K**.

## Refunds and cancellation

- 7-day refund on your first plan or first pack, once per account, on condition that the
  credits from that purchase are still unused. No reason required.
- Two ways to take it, and they are not the same amount. **As account credit: the full
  amount, nothing deducted.** **To the card: the full amount less the payment-processing
  fees the processor charged on the original payment and does not return** — the real
  figure for that transaction, told to you before anything moves, never more than the
  refund itself. The fee exists because the money makes a second trip through the card
  network; account credit does not make that trip.
- Cancel at any time; the price you signed up at stays locked.
- Failed generations are refunded in credits automatically, with no form.
