What is Tokens?
+
Tokens is an AI model gateway for developers. One API key gives you OpenAI-compatible and Anthropic-compatible endpoints for coding models from several providers, metered per token and paid in USD, BDT.
Can I pay for AI APIs in Bangladeshi taka?
+
Yes. Prices are shown in USD, BDT and you can pay with bKash, Nagad, Visa Card, Master Card, Rocket, AMEX, DBBL Nexus, Google Pay, Internet Banking, SSL. You do not need a dual-currency international card, and every payment gets a receipt in your dashboard.
Which coding agents work with Tokens?
+
Claude Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode, Cursor, Cline, Kilo Code, Continue, Zed, GitHub Copilot, OpenClaw, Hermes Agent, Aider, Crush, Goose and any other tool that accepts a custom OpenAI- or Anthropic-compatible base URL. The setup CLI configures Claude Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode and Crush in one command, and the docs have a guide for each tool.
Is the API OpenAI-compatible and Anthropic-compatible?
+
Both. Use https://tokens.bd/v1 with OpenAI SDKs and tools (chat completions, the Responses API, streaming and tool calling), or https://tokens.bd with Anthropic SDKs and Claude Code. The same API key works on both.
Which models can I use?
+
Every active model in the catalog at /models, with its context window and price per million tokens in USD and BDT. Your key can also list the models it may call with GET /v1/models.
Do you store my prompts or code?
+
No. We record usage metadata only (model, token counts, cost, latency and time) for billing. Prompts and responses pass through to the model provider, whose own data policy applies, and we never train on or sell your data.
What happens when my balance or plan allowance runs out?
+
Requests stop with a clear error instead of running up a bill: 402 when the balance is used up and 429 when a plan usage window is used up, with Retry-After telling you when it resets. Email alerts warn you at 50, 75 and 90 percent first.
Can I limit how much one API key can spend?
+
Yes. Give each key a monthly spending cap and, optionally, a list of allowed models when you create it. A runaway agent loop then stops at the cap instead of draining your balance.
How is Tokens different from OpenRouter?
+
OpenRouter has a larger catalog and charges in US dollars by card or crypto. Tokens focuses on coding models and adds what developers in Bangladesh need: payment in taka, per-key spend caps and usage alerts, a one-command agent setup, and support tickets in the dashboard. The full comparison is at /vs/openrouter.
How do I move from another gateway or a direct provider API?
+
Change the base URL and API key in your tool or SDK, then use model ids from /models (they are written as provider/model). Most tools need nothing else.
How do I get a receipt or ask for a refund?
+
Receipts for every payment are in Dashboard > Billing and can be printed. Refund requests are reviewed under the refund policy; open a support ticket from your dashboard with the receipt number.
Is there an uptime guarantee?
+
There is no published SLA yet. The status page at /status shows live component status and 90-day uptime measured from real health checks, and incidents are posted there.
