Quick answer: Suno has three plans. Free costs $0 and gives 50 credits a day (about 10 songs) on the v6-mini model, with no downloads and no commercial use. Pro costs about $10/month, or $8/month billed yearly, and gives 2,500 credits a month (about 500 songs), the best v6 models, 20 downloads a month and commercial rights. Premier costs about $30/month, or $24/month billed yearly, with 10,000 credits, 60 downloads a month and Suno Studio.
Choosing the right plan depends on how many songs you make, whether you need to download them and whether you’ll use them commercially. This guide breaks down every plan in plain English so you can decide quickly.

Free plan: what you get
The free plan is great for learning and experimenting. You get 50 credits every day, which refresh daily and don’t carry over. That’s enough for roughly five generations, each giving two songs. You use the lighter v6-mini model, and you can play and share songs on Suno — but you can’t download them, and you can’t use them commercially. Read more in is Suno free?
Pro plan: the best value for most people
Pro is the plan most creators choose. For around the price of a streaming subscription, you get 2,500 credits a month, access to Suno’s top v6 and v6-wild models, 20 song downloads a month, priority generation and commercial use rights for songs you make while subscribed. If you make music for YouTube, TikTok, podcasts or small projects, Pro usually covers everything.
Premier plan: for heavy users and producers
Premier is built for people who create a lot or want professional tools. You get 10,000 credits a month, 60 downloads, advanced stem separation and access to Suno Studio — Suno’s browser-based music workstation with MIDI, effects and automation. It suits producers, agencies and power users.
How credits work
Credits are what you spend to make songs. A standard generation uses about 10 credits and creates two songs, so one song costs roughly 5 credits. Some actions, such as extending, covers or advanced features, also use credits. Subscription credits reset each month (or each day on the free plan) and don’t roll over. Credits you buy as top-ups don’t expire but need an active subscription to use. Full details are in Suno credits explained.
Monthly vs yearly billing
Paying yearly saves about 20%. Pro drops from about $10 to $8 per month, and Premier from about $30 to $24. Choose yearly only if you’re sure you’ll use Suno all year; monthly billing lets you cancel anytime. See how to cancel a Suno subscription.
Which Suno plan should you choose?
| You are… | Best plan |
|---|---|
| Trying Suno for fun | Free |
| A content creator needing a few tracks a month | Pro |
| Releasing music on Spotify or YouTube | Pro or Premier |
| A producer who wants stems, MIDI and Studio | Premier |
| An agency or very heavy user | Premier plus add-on credits |
Is Suno worth paying for?
For most regular users, yes — Pro is good value. The biggest jump from Free to Pro isn’t just credits; it’s downloads and commercial rights. Without them, you can’t use your songs outside Suno. Premier is worth it if you need Studio, advanced stems or more than 20 downloads a month. If you only make a song now and then, stay on Free and upgrade for a month when you have a project.

Important: commercial rights depend on when you made the song
Commercial rights generally apply to songs created while you had an active paid subscription. Upgrading later doesn’t automatically give commercial rights to songs you made on the free plan. Check Suno’s current terms and read Suno commercial use explained.
A real-world example
A YouTuber making weekly videos needed four original background tracks a month. On the free plan she could create and preview songs but couldn’t download them. She upgraded to Pro on yearly billing at about $8 a month, used roughly 600 credits a month on experiments and finals, downloaded 4–6 tracks and gained commercial rights for her monetised channel. The cost was far lower than buying stock music licences for each video.
Pricing in other countries
Suno may show prices in local currency or add taxes such as VAT or GST depending on where you live, so your final price can differ from US prices. People in India, the UK, Canada, Australia and South Africa often see adjusted prices at checkout. The plan features stay the same.
Tips to get more from your plan
- Write clear prompts and lyrics first to avoid wasted generations — see Suno prompts.
- Use the free plan to test ideas, then upgrade for the month you need downloads.
- Save downloads for final versions only.
- Use Extend and section editing instead of regenerating whole songs.
- Track your credits in your account so you don’t run out mid-project.
Suno pricing vs other AI music generators
Suno’s pricing is similar to most major AI music tools: a free tier to try it, a low-cost creator plan and a higher plan for heavy users. What sets Suno apart is the combination of strong vocals, the v6 models and Suno Studio on Premier. Some competitors offer more downloads or different licensing terms, so if you mainly need background music, compare options in Suno alternatives and Suno vs Udio before you pay. Whatever you choose, read each service’s licensing terms carefully, because commercial rules differ between platforms and change over time.
In short: start free, upgrade to Pro when you need downloads or commercial rights, and choose Premier only if you need Studio or very high volume.
