Pay as you go uses a MiniMax Open Platform API key and spends the account balance. MiniMax credits are a separate prepaid balance on a Subscription Key. They are not lotgen’s prices, and they are not the key Settings asks for unless you mean that subscription key.
Hailuo on this key is the direct model. The steps inside the MiniMax console are not listed here. Create the key there, then paste it into Settings.
