Suno costs $0 on the Free plan, $10 a month for Pro and $30 a month for Premier, or $8 and $24 a month if you pay for a year up front ($96 and $288). Suno is free to use, but songs made on the free plan are for personal, non-commercial use only, and the free plan has no monthly song downloads.
Prices checked 2026-11-12 on suno.com/pricing and Suno's own help center. Every number below links to the Suno page it came from. Where Suno's pages don't say something, or say two different things, we tell you so instead of guessing. We build SongUp AI, another AI song maker, so near the end we compare cost per song with our own prices too. Suno is a strong product, and for many people it is the better deal.
In short
- Plans: Free ($0), Pro ($10 a month or $96 a year) and Premier ($30 a month or $288 a year), in US dollars before tax.
- Credits: Free gets 50 credits a day, Pro 2,500 a month, Premier 10,000 a month. By Suno's own math that is about 10 songs a day, up to 500 and up to 2,000 songs a month.
- Downloads: since September 2026, Pro includes 20 song downloads a month and Premier 60. That limit, not credits, is what most people hit first.
- Commercial use: only songs made while you pay. Upgrading later does not give rights to songs you made for free.
- Refunds: Suno says payments are final unless it decides otherwise; cancelling stops the next renewal.
Suno plans and prices in November 2026
Suno sells three plans. Free costs nothing and never expires. Pro and Premier are subscriptions you pay monthly or yearly, and both renew automatically until you cancel (pricing page).
| Free | Pro | Premier |
|---|
| Price, billed monthly | $0 | $10 a month | $30 a month |
| Price, billed yearly | $0 | $96 a year ($8 a month) | $288 a year ($24 a month) |
| Credits | 50 a day | 2,500 a month | 10,000 a month |
| Songs those credits make (Suno's estimate) | About 10 a day | Up to about 500 a month | Up to about 2,000 a month |
| Song downloads | None a month (see the free plan section) | 20 a month | 60 a month |
| Commercial use | No | Yes | Yes |
| Models | v6-mini | v6 and v6-wild | v6 and v6-wild |
| Download formats | MP3 | MP3 and WAV (WAV on the website) | MP3 and WAV (WAV on the website) |
| Songs at once | 4, shared queue | 10, priority queue | 10, priority queue |
| Audio upload length | Up to 8 minutes | Up to 30 minutes | Up to 30 minutes |
| Stem separation | None | 2 types (Auto, Split from mix) | 3 types (adds Advanced split) |
| Suno Studio | No | No | Yes, with MIDI, effects and automation |
| Buy extra credits or downloads | No | Yes | Yes |
Both paid plans also get Suno's Pro features: Voices (a saved vocalist), Custom Models tuned on your own audio, adding vocals to an instrumental or an instrumental to vocals, basic and advanced editing, and early access to new features (pricing page). The v6 and v6-wild models arrived on 9 September 2026; free users get v6-mini, which Suno describes as its faster, more efficient model.
Prices in pounds, Canadian and Australian dollars
The pricing page also carries prices in other currencies. Your checkout shows the one for your country, and tax is added at checkout. In the European Union, Suno adds VAT.
| Currency | Pro monthly | Pro yearly | Premier monthly | Premier yearly |
|---|
| UK pounds | £8 | £72 | £22 | £216 |
| Canadian dollars | CA$14 | CA$132 | CA$40 | CA$420 |
| Australian dollars | A$15 | A$144 | A$45 | A$420 |
These figures come from the plan data inside suno.com/pricing on 12 November 2026, not from a checkout we completed. The yearly Premier prices in Canadian and Australian dollars don't work out to exactly 20% off the monthly price, so confirm the total on the checkout page before you pay.
How Suno credits work
Every song you make on Suno uses credits. Suno's current pricing table lists credits per plan but not credits per song. Its own pages fill the gap: Suno says the free plan's 50 daily credits make up to 10 songs a day and that Pro makes 500 songs a month. That works out to about 5 credits per song. Editing, extending and remixing also draw on the same credits, so treat 500 as a ceiling, not a promise.
| Plan | Credits | Songs at ~5 credits each | Downloads | Songs made per download |
|---|
| Free | 50 a day (about 1,500 in a 30-day month) | About 10 a day | None a month | Not applicable |
| Pro | 2,500 a month | Up to about 500 | 20 | About 25 to 1 |
| Premier | 10,000 a month | Up to about 2,000 | 60 | About 33 to 1 |
Five rules from Suno's help center decide how far your credits go:
- Credits don't roll over. Free credits reset every day at a fixed time in UTC. Paid credits reset once a month at the time you first subscribed (when credits refresh). If you used 10 credits or all 2,500, you start the next month with 2,500, not more (why credits reset).
- Yearly plans still top up monthly. Paying for a year doesn't give you 30,000 credits at once. You get 2,500 (or 10,000) each month (paid rights).
- Running out isn't the end. When a paid plan's monthly credits are gone, you get the free plan's 50 credits a day until your cycle renews, and songs made with them still get commercial rights while you are subscribed (using all paid credits).
- Top-up credits last longer. Credits you buy on top don't expire, but you need an active subscription to use them (pricing page). Suno doesn't list the price of a top-up on its public pages; it shows in your account under Buy More Credits.
- Downloads are counted separately. Making a song uses credits. Taking the file off Suno uses a download, and downloads are capped by plan.
The download limit, in Suno's words
Suno's help center sets out how the cap works (downloads per plan, rollover):
- Pro gets 20 downloads a month and Premier 60. They reset on your billing date and don't roll over.
- Downloading the same song again doesn't use another download. Several formats of one song count as one download, and its stems come with it.
- Failed or interrupted downloads don't count.
- You can buy more downloads. Bought downloads and download packs do roll over. Suno doesn't publish their price on its public pages.
- Workflows inside Suno Studio, which is on Premier, aren't subject to the limits (how downloads work).
You can still play and share every song you make through its Suno link. The cap only matters when you want the audio file: for a video edit, a distributor, a client or your own archive.
Is Suno free? What the free plan can't do
Yes. Suno's free plan costs nothing, needs no card and doesn't expire. Suno says it lets you create up to 10 songs a day on its free model. That is generous, and for trying ideas, making songs for fun and sharing links with friends, it may be all you need.
The limits are about what you can do with the songs:
- No commercial use. Free songs are "only intended for personal, non-commercial use" and cannot be monetized (free plan rights). That rules out Spotify, YouTube monetization, ads, client work and selling the song.
- Suno owns them. On the free plan, Suno says it keeps ownership of the songs you generate; you may use them for non-commercial purposes (who owns the music).
- No monthly downloads. The pricing page lists "No monthly song downloads" for Free. The help center adds detail: free users who joined before 3 September 2026 have up to 7 trial downloads, and newer free users "may occasionally receive trial downloads". Trial downloads are not for commercial use (how downloads work). Free downloads are MP3 only (WAV files).
- No stems, no extra credits, a shared queue, 4 songs at a time, and audio uploads up to 8 minutes (pricing page).
Does upgrading later give rights to songs you made for free?
No, not by default. Suno says subscribing "does not give you retroactive commercial use licensing" for songs made on the free plan. It may offer retroactive rights in certain cases, but that isn't guaranteed (retroactive rights). Suno's distribution page puts it plainly: starting a subscription after you made a great song will not license that song.
Before you make the song
Subscribe first if the song might ever earn money.
Commercial rights on Suno follow the plan you were on when the song was made. A hit you made for free stays non-commercial even if you upgrade the next day. If there's any chance you'll release it, pay for the month first, then make it.
The reverse is kinder. Songs made while subscribed keep their commercial rights after you cancel (retroactive rights, who owns the music). One wording difference to know: the paid-rights page, edited 3 September 2026, says songs downloaded while subscribed get commercial rights, while older pages say songs made while subscribed. If it matters for a release, download the songs you plan to use before you cancel, and ask Suno support if you're unsure. Our guide to uploading AI songs to Spotify covers what distributors ask for next.
Suno Pro vs Premier: which should you pick?
Pro and Premier use the same models and have the same commercial rights. Premier costs three times as much and gives you four times the credits, three times the downloads, Suno Studio and one extra stem type (pricing page).
| You need | Pro ($10) | Premier ($30) |
|---|
| Finished songs to download each month | Up to 20 | Up to 60 |
| Songs to make and choose from | Up to about 500 | Up to about 2,000 |
| A full editor (Suno Studio) | No | Yes |
| Stem separation types | 2 | 3 |
| Commercial rights | Yes | Yes |
| Price per download, if you use all of them | $0.50 | $0.50 |
Pick Pro if you release a few songs a month, make music for your own videos, or are testing whether Suno fits your work. Twenty downloads is plenty for most hobbyists and many content creators, and 2,500 credits leaves room for lots of drafts.
Pick Premier if you need more than 20 files a month, deliver songs to clients, or want Suno Studio. Studio adds MIDI, effects and automation, and Suno says Studio workflows aren't subject to the download limits (how downloads work). At full use, Premier's cost per download is the same as Pro's, so you aren't paying more per song, only for more songs and Studio.
Stay on Free if you make songs for fun and share links. Paying adds nothing you need.
You can switch at any time from your account settings. Suno says upgrades take effect immediately, while downgrades apply at the end of your billing cycle (pricing FAQ). So you can start on Pro and move up in the month you need more.
Suno yearly vs monthly: how much do you save?
Yearly billing is 20% cheaper on both plans (more credits):
| Plan | 12 months billed monthly | Billed yearly | You save |
|---|
| Pro | $120 | $96 | $24 |
| Premier | $360 | $288 | $72 |
The catch is commitment. You pay the full year up front, credits and downloads still arrive month by month, and unused ones don't carry over. Suno's refund page says payments are final unless Suno decides otherwise. It names paying for a year by mistake, when you meant a month, as a case where it can switch you to monthly with a partial refund.
A simple rule: if you would keep paying for at least 10 of the next 12 months anyway, yearly is cheaper. If you make songs in bursts, pay monthly, cancel between projects, and resubscribe when you need it. Suno itself suggests that for on-and-off use (refund page).
Cost per song: Suno vs SongUp AI vs a human songwriter
"Cost per song" depends on which song you count. On Suno, a Pro subscriber can make up to about 500 songs a month, which is about 2 cents each. But only 20 can be downloaded. If you want the files, the honest figure is the price divided by downloads.
| Option | Price | Songs you can keep | Cost per kept song | Notes |
|---|
| Suno Pro, monthly | $10 a month | 20 downloads | $0.50 | Up to ~500 songs made to choose from |
| Suno Pro, yearly | $96 a year | 20 downloads a month | $0.40 | Paid up front |
| Suno Premier, monthly | $30 a month | 60 downloads | $0.50 | Up to ~2,000 songs made, Suno Studio |
| Suno Premier, yearly | $288 a year | 60 downloads a month | $0.40 | Paid up front |
| SongUp AI Pro, monthly | $9.99 a month | 21 songs | $0.48 | Every song downloads; unused songs roll over |
| SongUp AI Pro, yearly | $95.88 a year | 21 songs a month | $0.38 | Paid up front |
| SongUp AI Pro Plus | $19.99 a month | 45 songs | $0.44 | Priority queue |
| SongUp AI, one song | $2.99 once | 1 song | $2.99 | No subscription |
| A human-made custom song | See our guide | 1 song | Much higher | Days, not minutes |
SongUp AI prices are from our pricing page, in US dollars, for the US, UK, Canada, Australia and most other countries. Pro and Pro Plus cost less in many lower-income and Arab countries, and /pricing shows the price for where you are. New SongUp AI Pro members currently pay $1 for the first month, which includes 5 songs; that is a limited-time offer. Paid members who run out can add 10 songs for $4.99, paid once. For human songwriters and gift-song services, we list every price we could check in how much a custom song costs rather than repeat them here.
What the table means, fairly:
- Per kept song, Suno and SongUp AI are close. Both land between about 40 and 50 cents when you use the whole plan.
- Suno gives you far more drafts. Making 25 songs for every one you keep is a real advantage if you like to generate, compare and pick. Suno also has deeper editing tools, Voices, Custom Models and, on Premier, a full studio. If that's how you work, Suno is likely the better value.
- SongUp AI counts songs, not downloads. Every song you make on a SongUp AI paid plan downloads as an MP3, and unused songs roll over while your plan is active (pricing). Paid songs get commercial rights and a certificate of ownership you can check at songupai.com/verify (our AI music commercial license guide explains it).
- For one song, no subscription is cheapest. If you need a single song, for example a custom song as a gift, paying $2.99 once costs less than a month of either Pro plan.
We compare features beyond price, including stems, languages and releasing, on our Suno alternative page.

If downloads are your sticking point with Udio too, see the Udio alternative with downloads.
Hear your own lyrics sung free on SongUp AI
A free SongUp AI account can hear one song made from its own lyrics, free: the whole song in the US, UK, Canada, Australia and about 40 more countries, the first 30 seconds elsewhere. Downloading it, sharing it and more songs need a plan. Free songs, like Suno's, are for personal use only.
How to cancel Suno and get a refund
To cancel a subscription bought on the website, go to suno.com/account and choose Cancel Subscription at the top of the page, then confirm. Payments go through Stripe, and you can also cancel from Update Payment on the same page. If you subscribed in the iPhone or Android app, cancel through the App Store or Google Play, usually under subscriptions in your phone's settings (how to cancel).
After you cancel, you keep your plan to the end of the billing cycle, then the account goes back to the free plan (refund page). Songs made while you were subscribed keep their commercial rights.
Refunds are case by case. Suno's terms say payments are "final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by Suno" (refund page). The help center lists when Suno would usually help:
| Situation | What Suno says |
|---|
| You paid for a year instead of a month by mistake | Can switch you to monthly, with a partial refund |
| You subscribed but made no songs at all | Likely to help with a refund |
| A long outage or broken feature | Usually extra credits instead, which do carry over |
| You changed your mind after months of use | No refund; cancel instead |
| You used it on and off and didn't cancel | No refund for unused months |
| Suno shuts down the service | Pro-rata refund of prepaid months |
If it has only been a day or two, Suno says to email support@suno.com (refund page).
Before you cancel
Use your downloads, then cancel.
Monthly downloads don't roll over and you can't download on the free plan, so take the files you want while you're still paying. Keep a note of the date you made each song and the plan you were on; distributors may ask for proof of rights.
What to check before you pay for Suno
- Count the songs you need to keep, not the songs you'll make. That decides Pro (20) or Premier (60).
- Make anything you might release while subscribed. Free songs stay non-commercial.
- Download before the month ends. Unused downloads and credits disappear at renewal.
- Check the total at checkout, with tax and your local currency.
- Pay monthly first unless you're sure you'll use it all year.
- Look at the alternatives' terms too, especially for free plans. We compare free options, including Suno's, in best free AI song generators.

Suno pricing: FAQ
How much does Suno cost per month?
Suno Pro is $10 a month and Premier is $30 a month when billed monthly. Billed yearly, they cost $96 and $288 a year, which is $8 and $24 a month (pricing page, checked 2026-11-12). Tax is added at checkout.
Is Suno free?
Yes. The free plan gives 50 credits a day, about 10 songs, with no card. Free songs are for personal, non-commercial use, Suno keeps ownership of them, and the plan has no monthly song downloads (free plan rights).
How many credits does a Suno song cost?
About 5 credits, based on Suno's own figures: 50 credits make about 10 songs, and 2,500 make up to 500 (Suno). Edits, extensions and remixes use credits too, so real totals are lower.
How many songs can I download on Suno Pro?
20 a month on Pro and 60 on Premier. Downloads reset on your billing date and don't roll over. Downloading the same song again, or in another format, doesn't use another download (downloads per plan).
What's the difference between Suno Pro and Premier?
Premier adds four times the credits (10,000 vs 2,500), three times the downloads (60 vs 20), Suno Studio and a third stem separation type. Models and commercial rights are the same (pricing page).
Can I use free Suno songs commercially if I upgrade later?
Not by default. Subscribing doesn't give retroactive commercial rights to songs made on the free plan; Suno may grant them in certain cases, but doesn't guarantee it (retroactive rights). Make the song while subscribed.
Do unused Suno credits roll over?
No. Free credits reset daily and paid credits reset monthly. Top-up credits you buy don't expire, but need an active subscription to use (why credits reset, pricing page).
Can I get a refund from Suno?
Sometimes. Payments are final unless Suno decides otherwise. It usually helps with an accidental yearly purchase or a subscription you never used, but not with a change of mind after months of use (refund page).
