PiAPI: US$0.50 for new accounts and how referral rewards work

PiAPI gives new accounts US$0.50 in free credits for eligible image or video tasks whose cost fits the balance.

PiAPI provides APIs for generating images, video, music and 3D content. Developers can integrate these capabilities into apps or automation workflows, and try some models on the web.

In a short-video workflow shared on n8n, developer Juan Carlos Cavero Gracia uses PiAPI to generate images with Flux, turns them into video clips with Kling, and passes the clips to other tools for assembly.

Which payments count towards referral rewards?

PiAPI’s benefits page states that, during the first three months after a referred user registers, referral rewards are calculated at 10% of their first 10 Stripe payments. Free credits are not themselves Stripe payments.

A historical PiAPI announcement also listed a subscription requirement for cash rewards. Before applying or receiving payment, check your account’s current eligibility and payout conditions with PiAPI.
