Suno Free Tier: 50 Credits a Day, and the Monthly Price Is US$10 — Not US$8 (2026)

Suno is the easiest AI song generator to pick up: paste lyrics, name a style, get a full track. But two things about its pricing are easy to misread — the free allowance is daily, not monthly, and the big US$8 on the pricing page is not the monthly price. Here is each one, verified directly against the official pages (last checked 2026-08-14).

1. Free tier: 50 credits a day, gone if unused

Suno’s free plan is called Free Plan on the pricing page (older Help Center docs call it Basic), at US$0/month. The billing window is the part people miss:

So the free tier hands you a small batch every day rather than one large monthly pool. Unused credits are simply lost, and when you hit the ceiling there is no option to buy more — you wait for tomorrow or upgrade.

(How many credits a single song costs, and how long a track each credit buys, are not published on the official pages. We do not estimate — marked as unverified.)

2. Songs made on the free tier are not yours

This is the one to know before anything else, because it decides whether you can monetise the output:

• The pricing page lists No commercial use under the free plan.
• The Help Center goes further: songs created on the free plan are owned by Suno, and users are permitted to use them for non-commercial purposes only.

Commercial licensing starts with the paid Pro and Premier plans. If your use case is client work, streaming releases, or monetised video, free-tier output is unusable on licensing grounds — that is a rights issue, not a quota issue, and regenerating will not change it.

3. The monthly list price is US$10 / US$30

The pricing page shows US$8 (Pro) and US$24 (Premier) by default. That is the annual plan’s monthly average, not what you pay billing month to month:

The US$10/US$30 figures come from the monthly_price_usd field in the pricing page’s embedded JSON (read directly from suno.com/pricing on 2026-08-09). The annual option is a standing 20% discount: US$10 × 12 = US$120, less 20% = US$96, i.e. the US$8/month on display. Same maths for Premier (US$360 → US$288).

What paying actually adds:

• Commercial licence (absent on free)
• 10 concurrent generations in a priority queue (free: 4, shared)
• 30-minute audio uploads (free: 8 minutes)
• More models: v4, v4.5, v4.5+, v5, v5.5 (free: v4.5-all only)
• Premier also includes Suno Studio and 3 stem-separation modes

4. Any promo codes? No

The official site publishes no first-month discount, limited-time offer, or promo code. The only discount is the standing 20% annual saving above — no deadline, not a campaign. Tax is added at checkout.

There is no official TWD list price. The embedded JSON does carry other currencies as monthly list prices (EUR 9 / GBP 8 / JPY 1,500 / KRW 15,000 / AUD 15 / CAD 14), and these are independently set, not USD conversions.

5. How to choose

• Just experimenting, sharing privately → 50 credits a day is plenty, but use them the same day.
• Publishing anything monetised → the free tier is disqualified on licensing alone; Pro is the floor.
• Paying monthly? Read the US$10 column. Getting the 20% off means paying US$96 up front for a year.
• Need stems or post-production → Suno Studio and stem separation are Premier-only.
