Suno free vs Pro: 50 credits a day, 20 downloads, commercial rights
Suno Free: 50 credits a day, no commercial rights. Pro: $8 a month, 2,500 credits, 20 downloads. Premier: $24, 10,000 credits, 60 downloads. Read 2026-10-05.
Suno's free plan gives 50 credits a day on free models with no commercial rights. Pro costs $8 a month for 2,500 credits, 20 downloads a month and commercial use. Premier costs $24 a month for 10,000 credits, 60 downloads, Suno Studio and 30-minute uploads. If the music will appear in an ad or a product, the free plan is out and the download cap is the number to plan around.
The three plans
The pricing page says the free plan uses free models but does not name them in what I read. The v6-mini name appears only in press coverage, so this post does not say what the free tier's model can do. It sticks to what Suno's pricing page lists.
| Plan | Price | Credits | Downloads | Commercial use | Extras |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 50 per day | Not listed | No | Free models |
| Pro | $8 a month | 2,500 | 20 a month | Yes | Not listed |
| Premier | $24 a month | 10,000 | 60 a month | Yes | Suno Studio, 30-minute uploads |
What the numbers imply
Arithmetic on the listed prices: Pro at $8 for 20 downloads is $0.40 a download if you use all of them, and Premier at $24 for 60 downloads is also $0.40. The credit pool is what changes: Premier has four times the credits (10,000 against 2,500) for three times the price.
The page says annual billing saves 20%. I do not compute an annual figure here because I could not tell from the page text which price it shows. Check the page for the exact annual number before you budget.
- The download cap, not the credit pool, limits how many finished tracks you can take away.
- Credits and downloads are separate limits on the page, so track both.
- Free-plan tracks cannot be used commercially, so a free audition followed by a paid regeneration is a normal workflow.
What TechCrunch adds
TechCrunch reports that the v6 release comes with watermarking and tiered download limits, that older models are to be retired, and that suits from Sony and UMG remain active. The tiered download limit matches the plan table above. Treat the rest as press-reported context for the commercial-use question, not as pricing facts.
Per-song pricing in an API, for contrast
A subscription is a good fit when a person auditions tracks. For pipeline use, per-generation pricing is easier to model. Sume's Music Router charges a fixed $0.125 per accepted generation on Lyria 3.5, so 20 songs cost $2.50. That figure has no monthly download cap, but it also does not include Suno's app features, and Sume does not ship Suno. Compare on the workflow you need, and read each service's current terms before you publish.
