How Lumyn coins and pricing work
Coins pay for every generation on Lumyn. Image, video, lip sync, and voice models all draw from one balance, and each model shows its coin price before you run it. That is the whole pricing idea: one wallet, visible costs, no separate currency per medium.
Plans vs packs
A plan renews an allowance on a schedule. A coin pack is a one-time top-up that stays until you spend it.
Both feed the same balance. When you have plan credits and purchased coins, the plan's credits spend first. Packs are for topping up after you subscribe; the store page is built that way so you are not offered a pack button that cannot work.
Live prices live on Pricing. This post explains the system so you know what you are buying before you open the shelf.
One balance across the catalog
Models lists what is available and what each run costs. A cheap draft still and a longer video clip sit on the same wallet, which is why the medium picker in Image vs video vs lip sync is also a budget choice.
Failed or cancelled jobs that refund coins put them back on that balance. Check Account for the current total, including how much came from the plan versus packs you bought.
A short habit that wastes fewer coins
1. Pick the cheapest medium that answers the brief (still before video when you only need a frame). 2. Read the model price in Studio. 3. Draft short or small; promote keepers to sharper or longer models. 4. Top up only when the next run is worth it.
