Luma vs PixVerse

Which to choose, and when

• If a confirmed price matters: we verified Luma's price; PixVerse is currently "Manually recorded price", so recheck its amounts below on the official site before ordering.
• To try one month on monthly billing: PixVerse is cheaper, Standard at $10/mo; the cheapest on Luma is Plus at $30/mo.
• If you will use it for a full year: the entry plan billed annually is $96 on PixVerse and $300 on Luma. Annual plans are usually paid up front, so they only pay off if you use the whole year.
• If you want MiniMax H3: both offer it. We only have an exact official rate for it on Luma, so only there can you work out a month's seconds before paying.
• If you want Seedance 2.5: both offer it. We only have an exact official rate for it on Luma, so only there can you work out a month's seconds before paying.
• If you want Seedance 2.0: both offer it. We only have an exact official rate for it on Luma, so only there can you work out a month's seconds before paying.
• If you need a China entry point: we confirmed PixVerse has one (Mainland China App Store); Luma's China channel is unconfirmed, which is not the same as absent. An entry point does not mean the same plans or prices.

There is no "better overall" verdict. Each point above fits one situation; choose by whichever matters most in yours.

Prices side by side

Credit rules

Credits are not a shared currency: one Luma credit and one PixVerse credit buy different things, so the counts cannot be compared directly.

Which models it offers

From each tool's own official pages (pricing or model pages). Which models a plan includes changes between versions; each model page gives its source and when it was last confirmed.
