Each starting price is the lowest whole order the catalog lists for that version. Other settings change the price — the studio shows it before you generate.

Video versions are priced by the second, so a longer clip costs more credits.

Image versions are priced per image.

Wan 2.6 Flash starts at 15 credits for a 5-second clip (≈ $0.15).

With Wan 3.0, 5 s ≈ 45 credits (≈ $0.45).

There is no subscription: top up credits when you need them and spend them on any version.

API

Wan API

Every Wan version on DER works over the REST API and the MCP server, with the same credits and limits as the studio. The example calls Wan 3.0.
