If official billing locks you out — no US card, wrong region, or you just value privacy — HalfRouter gives you a drop-in OpenAI-compatible key for GPT, Claude and Gemini, funded entirely with USDT.
Top up on-chain. No card, no bank, no billing address, no verification forms.
Sign up, get a key, top up, ship. No waitlist, no approval, no sales call.
Pay-as-you-go with crypto. Keep your identity and card details out of it.
# pip install openai — change one line client = OpenAI(base_url="https://halfrouter.vip/v1", api_key="YOUR_HALFROUTER_KEY") client.chat.completions.create(model="claude-sonnet-4.6", messages=[...])
Correct. Billing is pay-as-you-go in USDT (TRC20). There is no card on file and no KYC step to start using the API.
Every model on HalfRouter through one OpenAI-compatible endpoint: GPT, Claude (with native caching), Gemini, and popular open/domestic models.
New accounts get trial credits on signup so you can test before topping up.
Because billing is crypto-based, there is no card-region restriction — usable anywhere you can reach the API.
Sign up, grab a key, top up in USDT — your existing OpenAI-style code runs on GPT, Claude & Gemini at half the bill.
