Frequently asked questions
How much does MiniMax M3 cost?
MiniMax M3 starts at $0.227 per 1M input tokens through the API Stock API. You pay per use from a single prepaid balance — there is no subscription — and the final price scales with parameters such as resolution or duration.
How do I call the MiniMax M3 API?
Send a POST request to https://api.api-stock.com/api/v1/chat/completions with your API key and the model "minimax-m3", using the openai-compatible request format shown in the quick start above.
What happens if a MiniMax M3 request fails?
API Stock automatically retries the request on a reserve provider. If every provider fails, the charge is refunded to your balance.
Can I use MiniMax M3 with the same API key as other models?
Yes. Every model on API Stock — video, image, music and chat — shares one API key and one prepaid balance, so you can switch to MiniMax M3 without new credentials.
