Tripo API Is Moving to USD Pricing: Your Usage Costs and Balance Stay the Same

Dear Tripo Developer,

To make pricing easier to understand, Tripo API (developers.tripo3d.ai) will switch to USD pricing starting December 1, 2026. Account balances and feature prices will be displayed directly in US dollars (USD), replacing the current credit-based system.

This is a display and pricing-unit change only. Your actual usage costs and account balance value will remain unchanged.

What's Changing?

  1. Feature Pricing: From Credits to USD

Feature prices will be converted at a fixed rate of 1 credit = $0.01.

For example, a Text-to-3D generation that currently costs 20 credits will be displayed as $0.20 after the update.

  1. Account Balance: Displayed Directly in USD

Your existing credit balance will be converted to its equivalent USD value using the same rate.

For example, a remaining API balance of 10,000 credits will be displayed as $100.00.

  1. Top-Ups: Credited Directly in USD

After the update, top-up amounts will be added directly to your account balance in USD, without being converted into credits.

No Action Required

This update will not affect your existing top-up benefits, account balance value, or future API usage costs. No changes to your existing code, API integrations, or workflows are required. You can continue using Tripo API as usual.

If you have any questions, please contact us at business@tripo3d.ai.

Thank you for using Tripo API!

Best regards,
Tripo Developers

Important Notice: Upcoming Deprecation of Legacy Tripo API Models

To optimize resource allocation, improve service efficiency, and continue delivering high-quality 3D generation and processing capabilities, Tripo API will discontinue support for several legacy models effective December 1, 2026. The affected models include the H-series 3D generation model V2.5, texture generation model V2.5, and mesh segmentation model V1.0.
