Lovable pricing and plans
Lovable lets you build and publish apps by describing what you want. Free is for trying the workflow; Pro starts at $25/month for 100 subscription credits; Business starts at $50/month for the same 100 credits with additional team controls. Everyone in a workspace draws from its shared balance, so the real decision is about credit use and features, not seat count.

Estimate build-credit costs using a larger tier or a smaller tier plus top-ups. All 11 Pro and Business tier prices were checked against the official subscription tables on October 14, 2026. Confirm checkout prices before buying.
Your real number is in Lovable under Settings, then Plans and credit usage.
Enable only if your plan grants 5 eligible build credits on each selected day. Regional grant limits may differ. Unused daily grants expire; Cloud and deployed-app AI usage are outside this deduction.

What 100 credits really means
- Pro and Business both start with 100 paid credits per month. Business costs twice as much at that tier because of governance and publishing controls.
- Credits are not prompts. Daily build credits and the monthly Cloud grant are separate usage-specific grants; they do not turn a 100-credit subscription into a fixed number of app edits.
- The whole workspace shares one balance. Lovable lists unlimited members on all plans, so a three-person team on Pro 100 still has 100 subscription credits a month, not 100 each.
Lovable plans at a glance
| Plan | Monthly billing | Annual billing | Credits and fit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | — | 5 daily build credits, capped at 30 per calendar month; 20 monthly Cloud credits |
| Pro, 100 credits | $25/month | $250/year (~$20.83/month) | 100 subscription credits/month; custom domain, code editing and download, remove badge |
| Business, 100 credits | $50/month | $500/year (~$41.67/month) | 100 subscription credits/month; adds SSO, internal publishing and team controls |
| Enterprise | Quote | Quote | Volume-based credits, security and governance terms by contract |
The 200-credit tier is $50/month on Pro or $100/month on Business. Higher tiers are available. Lovable does not charge a per-seat subscription fee: members in the same workspace share the balance. More builders can use credits faster, so set member limits if you work as a team.
What actually uses credits
Lovable combines building, chat, app hosting through Cloud, AI features inside your deployed app, and some managed connector requests in one general credit balance. Usage-specific grants are applied first. After they run out, the relevant work can draw from your general credits. The dashboard reports Build and Run usage separately, but these are views of the same general balance.
| Task in Lovable’s examples | Credits used |
|---|---|
| Change a button to gray | 0.50 |
| Remove a footer component | 0.90 |
| Add authentication with sign-up and login | 1.20 |
| Build a landing page with generated images, a theme, and sections | 2.00 |
Lovable’s chat terms describe temporary chat pricing through October 31, 2026: a daily chat allowance is used first, then daily build credits and general credits, with a larger allowance on Pro and Business than on Free. Build mode, Plan mode, images, videos, Cloud and deployed-app AI keep their standard pricing and sit outside that offer. The end date has passed, and when Toolvel rechecked on November 5, 2026, Lovable had not published the terms that follow. Official chat terms. That is why “100 credits = 100 prompts” is misleading. Some small requests use under one credit, and a larger build can use more. Check the per-message cost in Lovable and the workspace’s Settings → Plans & credit usage before choosing a higher tier.
When Pro or Business makes sense
- Stay on Free while testing small projects. The 5-credit daily build grant stops after 30 credits in a calendar month; unused daily grants do not carry over.
- Choose Pro if you need a custom domain, downloadable and editable code, removal of the “Edit with Lovable” badge, or more building capacity. The entry tier is $25/month for 100 subscription credits.
- Choose Business when you actually need SSO, role-based access, internal publishing, the Lovable API, design templates, or priority support. The entry tier is $50/month for the same 100 subscription credits as Pro.
- Ask about Enterprise if you need contract-specific credit volume, SCIM, audit logs, publishing controls, or dedicated support.
Deciding between Free, Pro, and Business?
Pro and Business start with the same credits, so the choice comes down to how much you build and which controls you need. Compare Free, Pro, and Business →
Comparing against Bolt or Replit?
Each tool meters usage differently, so the same monthly price can buy very different amounts of building. Lovable vs Bolt vs Replit, compared →
Top-ups versus a larger plan
A one-time 50-credit top-up costs $15 on Pro and $30 on Business. For a brief spike, Pro 100 plus one top-up is $40 for a month with 150 credits available; Business 100 plus one is $80. Top-up credits last 12 months, so unused purchased credits can cover a later month.
For recurring use closer to 200 subscription credits, compare the next tier: Pro 200 costs $50/month versus $55 for Pro 100 plus two 50-credit top-ups; Business 200 costs $100/month versus $110 for Business 100 plus two. These examples use listed monthly prices and assume you buy both top-ups in the same month. Daily grants and rollover balances could change what you need to buy.
Rollover and billing details
- Monthly plan credits expire two months after issue if unused. Lovable says credits granted on annual plans expire one month after the annual period ends; annual billing is paid upfront even though subscription credits arrive monthly.
- Purchased top-up credits last 12 months from purchase. Daily build grants reset each day and do not roll over.
- Hosting can use credits. The monthly Cloud grant covers many small apps, but an app with meaningful traffic or resource use can draw from the paid general balance.
- Student and teacher discount: Lovable lists 50% off Pro 100, billed monthly, for eligible people for up to 12 months. Verification and restrictions apply.

Before you pay
- Measure on Free first. Build one small project and check how many credits your actual requests use. If you expect to publish an app, budget separately for running it and for any AI features your visitors trigger.
- Business is for controls, not credits. Its base tier has the same credit allocation as Pro, so name the specific control you need before paying twice as much.
- Everything is managed in one place. Workspace settings → Plans & credit usage is where you upgrade, downgrade, switch billing cycle, see invoices, or cancel.
- Cancellation does not refund the current period. Your paid plan stays active until the billing period ends. After moving to Free, unused subscription and rollover credits are frozen; purchased top-ups and bonus credits stay usable until expiry. Contact support if you believe a charge is an error.
