Wan 3.0 30-second clip price: $1.88, $3.75 or $7.50 on Sume
A 30-second Wan 3.0 clip costs $1.88 at 480p, $3.75 at 720p and $7.50 at 1080p on Sume. Wan 3.0 is priced per second by resolution only.

A 30-second Wan 3.0 clip costs $1.88 at 480p, $3.75 at 720p and $7.50 at 1080p on Sume. The model accepts 2 to 30 seconds per the Sume video models docs, so a full 30 seconds is one job.
The rate card
Wan 3.0 is a flat per-second price in WAN_30_USD_MICROS_PER_SECOND: $0.05 per second at 480p, $0.10 at 720p and $0.20 at 1080p. Sume multiplies by 1.25 and rounds each job up to a whole cent, so the billed rate is 6.25, 12.5 and 25 cents per second.
| Resolution | 5 s | 15 s | 30 s |
|---|---|---|---|
| 480p | $0.32 | $0.94 | $1.88 |
| 720p | $0.63 | $1.88 | $3.75 |
| 1080p | $1.25 | $3.75 | $7.50 |
Reading the table
Doubling the resolution tier doubles the price, and doubling the seconds doubles it too, so there are no hidden steps. The only irregular numbers come from rounding: a 5-second 480p clip is $0.3125 before rounding and $0.32 on the bill, and 15 seconds at 480p is $0.9375 rounded to $0.94.
Because the rule is linear, you can budget in your head: seconds x 6.25 cents at 480p, x 12.5 at 720p, x 25 at 1080p.
Where it sits against Seedance 2.5
For the same 30 seconds at 720p, Seedance 2.5 is $17.34 against $3.75 here, about 4.6 times as much. That is a price comparison only; the two models differ in what they accept as inputs, which the Video Router docs spell out. For longer sequences, see four 30-second jobs on Wan 3.0.
- One job per clip, up to 30 seconds.
- Resolution is the only price input besides seconds.

Budgeting a batch of 30-second clips
Because the price is linear, batch budgets are simple multiplication. Fifty 30-second clips at 720p are 50 x $3.75 = $187.50, and the same fifty at 480p are $94.00. Rounding is per job, so the cents do not drift across a batch the way they would with per-second billing.
Plan limits are separate from price. Concurrency caps how many jobs run at once (4 on Pro, 8 on Startup and 20 on Scale at the time of writing; check your plan), so a large batch queues rather than costing more. Use the cheaper 480p tier to choose which prompts deserve a 1080p final, and keep the 1080p render for the ones you will publish.
How these numbers were produced
Each cell is the dated list rate per second times the seconds times 1.25, rounded up to the cent, checked on 2026-10-06 against Sume's price tables for wan-3.0 at 480p, 720p and 1080p.
These are estimates of the billed amount for the stated settings. Anything not in the table, such as a different frame shape, a reference input or a changed quality tier, can change the number, so run the estimate for your own request before a large batch. Where this page and the public API pricing list disagree, the pricing page and the live quote win.
