Pricing tiers: Hosted qwen3.8-flash on Model Studio International lists USD/MTok input/output $0.15/$0.47; Beijing and Global rows list $0.113/$0.382. QwenCloud marketplace separately quotes implicit/explicit cache reads $0.016 and explicit creation $0.20. Hosted cards list 1M context and 131K maximum response; these are not native limits or self-hosting costs. The checkpoint has 262,144 native context, extensible to 1,000,000 with appropriate serving configuration. Recommended output budgets are not a hard native cap.

That clause has no revenue floor; it differs from the 2.4T licence. Model-name UI attribution applies above 100M monthly active users or US$20M monthly revenue. Hosted regional limits, Batch eligibility and tariffs belong to their named routes.
