PixVerse pricing: free credits, paid plans & video costs
Quick answer
PixVerse Standard costs $10 monthly or $8 per month billed annually ($96/year), with 1,200 monthly membership credits. The free Basic plan lists 60 initial credits and 30 daily credits; paid plans list 60 daily credits. Generation cost varies by model, resolution, duration and audio. Consumer subscription credits and PixVerse API billing are separate; PixVerse's current API pricing example uses V6 at 720p for five seconds without audio.
Magic Hour publishes this pricing guide and offers alternative video workflows. PixVerse subscription, credit, and API claims are based on the linked official PixVerse sources checked September 13, 2026; this is not a sponsored review or controlled output-quality benchmark.

Daily credits reset daily. Do not count a daily allowance as a stored monthly balance you can spend all at once. Confirm how each credit type expires before buying extra capacity.

Basic lists output up to 540p. Standard lists up to 720p and three concurrent generations. Pro and higher tiers list up to 4K, with model-dependent availability; Pro allows five concurrent generations and Premium/Ultra eight. Team Ultra lists twelve. Paid plan cards include watermark-free downloads.
Plans also differ in model access, batch creation and off-peak discounts. “Unlimited” offers apply to the named models, modes and promotional terms on the plan page; they do not mean unrestricted access to every model at every setting.
How many videos do PixVerse credits buy?
There is no single credits-per-video figure. Choose the model, duration, resolution and audio mode, then read the generation estimate. Extend, edit and reference-video operations can have different costs from a new text-to-video clip.
For budgeting, use: credits needed = number of attempts × credits per attempt. For example, if the interface quotes 40 credits and you plan three attempts for each of ten finished clips, budget 1,200 credits. This is an illustrative calculation, not a quoted universal PixVerse rate or a measured success rate.
Use the displayed estimate to calculate your own capacity: available eligible credits divided by the quoted credits per attempt, rounded down, gives a maximum candidate count before other operations. Divide that candidate count by your assumed attempts per accepted clip for a planning scenario. Daily credits are useful only when you can use them before expiry.
Record actual accepted outputs with the video-cost worksheet. For a product comparison, reuse one shot prompt and source photo across the tools you are considering. Do not buy an annual plan from the candidate count alone.
Consumer subscription or PixVerse API?
Use the consumer application for interactive creation. Use the PixVerse API platform when you need programmatic generation. PixVerse's API plan guide explicitly says API memberships are separate from PixVerse Web and that API credits cannot be used in the web app. The API publishes rates by model and parameter; its billing should not be inferred from the consumer membership table.
A meaningful API quote names the model, operation, duration, resolution, audio setting and purchase package. The current API pricing page gives this concrete Starter-pack example: $1 buys five V6 videos at 720p, five seconds and no audio. That example does not price a web-app generation, another V6 setting, C1, V5.6 or a third-party model. Two services can use the word “credits” without assigning the same value to a credit.
Which plan should you choose?
Start with Basic to check the interface and your intended input. Choose Standard only if its supported models and 720p limit meet your export needs. Move to Pro when you need its model access, higher output options or more concurrency. Premium and Ultra make sense when your measured usage or a specific eligible off-peak workflow justifies their additional cost.
Do not buy a higher tier solely because a comparison calls it “best for creators.” Estimate your actual attempts and check the exact model you plan to use.
How should you compare PixVerse with alternatives?
Compare the same job rather than headline credits: for example, ten five-second product clips at the same resolution, with the same audio requirement and an allowance for retries. Record the final subscription or API cost, accepted outputs and export restrictions.
For a practical comparison, use Magic Hour Image-to-Video with the same source image, or Text-to-Video with the same written brief. Our image-to-video shortlist compares the workflows and free limits. Evaluate the accepted output and total cost; credit counts from different providers are not equivalent.
Frequently asked questions
Basic is free. The current plan table lists 60 initial credits, 30 daily credits and output up to 540p. Check the selected model’s charge and export restrictions before generating.
No. An annual equivalent such as Standard’s $8/month represents a $96 annual payment. Select monthly billing if you want the monthly offer.
The paid subscription cards list watermark-free downloads. Verify the intended output and download mode before using a clip in a final project.
Do not assume so. The consumer application and API platform have separate pricing surfaces. Use the API billing page for programmatic workloads.
PixVerse's current API example is $1 for five V6 videos at 720p, five seconds and no audio with the Starter credit pack. Treat it as one defined configuration, not a universal price per video. Audio, higher resolution, longer duration, reference-video input, another model and another credit package can change the rate; web-app subscription credits cannot be used for API calls.
