Alibaba Cloud is raising the quota for its Token Plan packages in a new round starting today, covering the Lite, Essential, Standard, and Pro tiers, with the Pro tier also seeing a significant price cut.
The specific adjustments are as follows: the Lite tier (CNY 39/month) will increase from 11,500 to 20,000 Credits, with new customers paying only CNY 19.5 for the first month; the Essential tier (CNY 79/month) will rise from 25,500 to 45,000, with new customers paying CNY 39.5 for the first month; the Standard tier (CNY 139/month) will rise from 45,000 to 80,000; and the Pro tier's monthly fee will drop directly from CNY 499 to CNY 312, while its quota will increase from 180,000 to 200,000 Credits, representing a 37% price reduction.
Credits are a unified deduction unit that can be used to call text, image, speech, and other models, as well as some agent tools. Existing users will automatically have the new quota topped up in their current cycle. Existing Pro users will keep the current price for the current cycle, and the new price will take effect from the next cycle. Unused quota in a month does not roll over; if usage exceeds the quota, users can purchase usage packs or wait for the next cycle to refresh.
This quota increase comes during Double 11. Alibaba Cloud aims to lower the barrier for developers calling large models, and the Pro tier price cut is particularly noteworthy.
