2. 模型全景:你能免费/低价用到什么
- 语言:MiniMax-M3(512K 上下文,支持 1M+ 超长)、M2.7 / M2.5 / M2.1,全面兼容 Anthropic / OpenAI / AI SDK 调用,支持 Prompt Caching、Tool Use、Interleaved Thinking。

3.5 最新免费活动(全网核验 2026-08-26 · 8月24日-9月6日限时14天置顶·已公布截止)
置顶·8月24日-9月6日限时免费14天(已公布截止):经 Brave 全网核验 + 官方推文交叉验证,MiniMax 自 2026-08-24 至 2026-09-06(共14天) 在 GMI Cloud 与 OpenRouter 同步无限量免费,过期即恢复按量计费。来源:MiniMax 官方 @MiniMax_AI 8月24日推文“From Aug 24–Sep 6, get unlimited access to MiniMax M3 and M2.7 on @gmi_cloud—plus Speech 2.8 and Music 3.0” + @gmi_cloud 官宣“14 days FREE on GMI Cloud from 8/24 to 9/6, access via both GMI API key or @OpenRouter”。本节其余为 2026-08-26 全网检索补充,均已交叉核验,以控制台实际到账为准。
本次免费双通道(已验证零费率·截止9月6日):
- GMI Cloud 主通道(官方指定·无限量):
gmi_cloud 提供 14天无限量 M3 / M2.7 / Speech 2.8 / Music 3.0,支持 GMI API Key 直调 或 经 OpenRouter 接入(minimax/minimax-m3:free 1M上下文、minimax/minimax-m2.7:free 196K上下文,均在 OpenRouter /api/v1/models 返回 pricing: {"prompt":"0","completion":"0"},OpenAI 兼容,无需绑卡)。
- OpenRouter 零费率镜像(已验证):同为
minimax/minimax-m3:free / minimax/minimax-m2.7:free 零费率,适合多模型对比与 Fallback。
- 时效提醒(已公布截止):免费窗口 2026-08-24 至 2026-09-06(14天),过期恢复按量计费;建议立即用免费窗口完成“长上下文 Agent + Prompt Caching + 工具调用 + 语音/音乐”全链路压测,再切 M3 永久5折($0.30/M起)或 Token Plan $22/$55/$132 续跑。
A. 官方 API 新用户试用金 ¥15(约 $2)
- 来源:yangmao.ai 免费 API 追踪(快照 2026-06-24)与 Apidog《How to Use MiniMax M2-7 for Free》(2026)均确认新用户注册即得 ¥15 试用额度。
- 覆盖:MiniMax-M2.7 对话、TTS 等;OpenAI 兼容端点
https://api.minimaxi.chat/v1/chat/completions,也兼容 https://api.minimax.io/v1。
- 领取:注册 https://www.minimaxi.com / https://platform.minimax.io → 控制台查看余额 → 用下文 OpenAI SDK 最小请求验证扣费即生效。
- 注意:额度、RPM 与有效期随活动调整,生产前务必在控制台核验剩余与限速;用完后自动转按量计费。
B. Hailuo 视频 H3 四条免费路径(均限 768p)
- 来源:PixMind《MiniMax H3 Free: Every Way to Use It Without Paying in 2026》(2026-08-01)与 AtlasCloud《Is MiniMax H3 Free? Four Free Doors》(2026-08-04)实测。
- 四条门:1)Hailuo 官网免费档 2)MiniMax Hub 试用 3)开源权重自部署(需 42.5GB+ 本地资源)4)第三方聚合平台试用(OpenRouter / Hugging Face Spaces / PixMind & AtlasCloud starter credits)。
- 限制:免费均 限 768p、部分带水印,2K 无水印需付费;定价:H3 按秒计费,2K $0.13/sec、768P $0.09/sec(AtlasCloud 2026-08-04 抓取 $0.14/sec,PixMind 核算 15秒2K约 $1.95),无包月折扣。
- 建议:免费用于跑通“首帧定版→H3 图生视频”工作流与文案定版,交付务必走付费 API(无水印、无过期剧场)。
C. 聚合平台免费通道(无卡快速验证)
- OpenRouter:统一 OpenAI 格式接入
minimax/minimax-m2.7,适合多模型对比与 Fallback。
- Hugging Face Spaces:社区 Demo 免费试,有用量与排队限制。
- PixMind / AtlasCloud 等聚合站:注册送 starter credits,适合无卡验证 H3 效果;注意核验商用授权与稳定性。
小技巧:先用 ¥15 试用金测 M2.7 编码/工具调用与长上下文,再用 H3 免费档测 768p 分镜,最后用 $0.13/sec 的 2K 付费片段做交付对比,可将试错成本压到最低。
4. 零成本上手:3 步跑通第一个请求
步骤 1:注册并获取 Key
步骤 2:配置环境(任选其一,推荐 Anthropic 兼容)
# Anthropic 兼容(推荐)
export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=https://api.minimax.io/anthropic
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=你的_API_Key或_Subscription_Key
# OpenAI 兼容
export OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.minimax.io/v1
export OPENAI_API_KEY=你的_Key
步骤 3:发起调用
Anthropic SDK (Python)
import anthropic
client = anthropic.Anthropic() # 自动读取 ANTHROPIC_* 环境变量
resp = client.messages.create(
model="MiniMax-M3",
max_tokens=1024,
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "用一句话介绍 MiniMax M3 的优势"}]
)
print(resp.content[0].text)
OpenAI SDK (Python)
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(base_url="https://api.minimax.io/v1", api_key="你的_Key")
resp = client.chat.completions.create(model="MiniMax-M3", messages=[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}])
print(resp.choices[0].message.content)
cURL
curl https://api.minimax.io/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENAI_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"model":"MiniMax-M3","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"hi"}]}'
提示:长上下文、Agent 多轮、工具调用场景建议开启 Prompt Caching,可将重复上下文读取成本降至 $0.06/M。
5. 如何选:按量 vs 订阅 vs Credits
- 月调用 < 50M tokens 且波动大:直接按量 + M3 5折最划算
- 每天用 Agent 写代码/做多模态:Max/Ultra 订阅更省心,配额内零边际成本
- 不想月付但想锁定优惠:买 Credits 包,365天内随用随扣,团队可共享
- 团队:看 Token Plan for Teams,支持席位分配与共享 Credits 池
6. 在 apishare.cc 上用 MiniMax
Apishare 作为全球领先的 API 共享平台,已收录多家免费推理通道。MiniMax 官方暂未提供永久免费额度,但你可以通过 apishare.cc 搜索第三方免费代理或等待社区贡献的 MiniMax 免费镜像。建议同时在官方平台用 M3 5折与 Token Plan 组合,实现开发期低成本、生产期按量弹性。
7. 常见问题
Q:MiniMax 有免费额度吗?
A:官方未公布永久免费额度。最接近免费的是 M3 永久5折、Plus $22 订阅覆盖全模态,以及邀请首单 10% off + 返券。新用户可关注官方不定期赠金。
Q:Subscription Key 和 API Key 能混用吗?
A:不能。按量用 API Key,订阅/Credits 用 Subscription Key,计费体系隔离。
Q:超出 Token Plan 配额怎么办?
A:四选一:用 Credits 自动抵扣、升级档位、切回按量 Key、或等待 5小时/周窗口重置。
Q:如何接入 Cursor / Claude Code / OpenClaw 等编程工具?
A:官方提供一键配置指南:https://platform.minimax.io/docs/token-plan/claude-code 等,填入 Subscription Key 与 Base URL 即可。

Added after web-wide check on 2026-08-26. Always confirm in console — promos change without notice.
A. Official API new-user trial ¥15 (~$2)
- Sources: yangmao.ai free-API tracker (snapshot 2026-06-24) and Apidog How to Use MiniMax M2-7 for Free (2026) both confirm ¥15 trial credits on signup.
- Covers: MiniMax-M2.7 chat, TTS, etc.; OpenAI-compatible endpoint
https://api.minimaxi.chat/v1/chat/completions (also https://api.minimax.io/v1).
- How: Sign up at https://www.minimaxi.com / https://platform.minimax.io → check balance → run the minimal OpenAI SDK request below.
- Caveat: Quota/RPM/expiry may change; verify in dashboard before production.
B. Hailuo H3 — four free doors (all capped at 768p)
- Sources: PixMind MiniMax H3 Free (2026-08-01) and AtlasCloud Is MiniMax H3 Free? Four Free Doors (2026-08-04), tested.
- Doors: 1) Hailuo official free tier 2) MiniMax Hub trial 3) Open-weights self-host (42.5GB+) 4) Aggregator trials (OpenRouter / Hugging Face Spaces / PixMind & AtlasCloud starter credits).
- Limits: Free = 768p max, watermark on some; 2K watermark-free is paid: $0.13/sec at 2K, $0.09/sec at 768p (AtlasCloud lists $0.14/sec on 2026-08-04; 15s 2K ≈ $1.95), linear billing, no bulk discount.
- Advice: Use free to lock the first frame and test the workflow; ship paid for watermark-free 2K.
C. Aggregator free lanes (no-card quick test)
- OpenRouter: Unified OpenAI format for
minimax/minimax-m2.7, great for multi-model compare & fallback.
- Hugging Face Spaces: Community demos, free but queued/limited.
- PixMind / AtlasCloud: Starter credits on signup, good for no-card H3 validation — check licensing & reliability for commercial use.
Tip: Burn the ¥15 on M2.7 coding/tool-use & long-context first, then use H3 free 768p for storyboards, then pay $0.13/sec for a single 2K deliverable — cheapest way to compare.
4. Zero-cost quickstart in 3 steps
1) Get a key
2) Env (Anthropic recommended)
export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=https://api.minimax.io/anthropic
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
# or OpenAI:
export OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://api.minimax.io/v1
export OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_KEY
3) Call
import anthropic
client = anthropic.Anthropic()
resp = client.messages.create(model="MiniMax-M3", max_tokens=1024, messages=[{"role":"user","content":"Introduce MiniMax M3 in one sentence"}])
print(resp.content[0].text)
Cache repeated context to cut read cost to $0.06/M.
5. Which to pick?
- <50M tokens/mo & spiky: PAYG with M3 50% off
- Daily Agent coding/multimodal: Max/Ultra subscription
- No monthly commitment: Credits packs (team-shareable)
- Teams: Token Plan for Teams with seat & shared Credits pool
6. On apishare.cc
Apishare aggregates free inference channels. MiniMax has no permanent free tier officially, but you can search apishare.cc for community-contributed free proxies or combine official M3 discount + Token Plan for dev-low-cost + prod-elastic.
7. FAQ
Free tier? No permanent free tier. Closest is M3 50% off, $22 Plus covering full stack, plus referral 10% off/voucher.
Keys interchangeable? No. API Key = PAYG, Subscription Key = Token Plan/Credits.
Over quota? Use Credits, upgrade, switch to PAYG key, or wait for window reset.
Cursor/Claude Code/OpenClaw? Follow https://platform.minimax.io/docs/token-plan/claude-code etc. — just set Subscription Key + Base URL.
