Your community is your API key.

Top up once. Send tokens to anyone. They spend them across Claude, GPT-5, Gemini, Mistral and every other frontier model — one balance, every lab.

How it works

Three moves.
No vendor lock-in.

Send Me A Token sits between you and every frontier model. You don't need their key. You need your community.

STEP / 01

Top up once. Tokens never expire.

Load a balance with a card, ACH, or a friend who got there first. No per-seat licensing, no team plan, no “contact sales.” The balance sits in your wallet until you spend it.

  • Card, ACH, or peer transfer
  • Tokens roll over every month
  • Free first 200 on every new wallet

STEP / 02

Send tokens like a text message.

Pick a handle. Choose an amount. Hit send. Transfers settle peer-to-peer in about a second, with an optional note attached and a receipt at both ends.

  • Settles in about 1.2s, on average
  • Zero fee on transfers under 5k
  • Recipient gets a working wallet on first receive

Spend across every frontier model.

Recipients use their balance across Claude, GPT-5, Gemini, Mistral, Llama and more. Pick the right model per message, not per contract. One balance, one auth, every lab.

  • 10+ frontier models, one wallet
  • Auto-routing for the cheapest answer
  • Vendor outages route automatically

Why Send Me A Token

The vendor relationship belongs to people, not companies.

Frontier model access is gated behind seat licenses, team plans, and brittle keys. Most people don't need an account with five labs. They need one balance, one log-in, and a friend who'll spot them.

01

Vendor-free by design

You never sign up for Anthropic, OpenAI, Google or anyone else. Send Me A Token carries the relationship; you carry your community.

02

Receipts on every transfer

Every send, top-up and spend has a public-ish receipt: copyable tx id, note, settle time. Auditable without being noisy.

03

Bring-a-friend onboarding

A new wallet is one share-link away. The person you sent 100 tokens to is signed up by the time the receipt hits your inbox.

04

Pooled balances for crews

Hackathon team, class cohort, open-source maintainers. Point a shared balance at the same handle and split the work.

Bring your own agent

Use the agents you want.
With the LLMs you want.

Your balance becomes an API key. Point Cursor, Claude Code, Hermes Agent, Open Code — any agentic or CLI tool — at it. We route to whichever frontier model your tokens can pay for. You never juggle vendor keys again.

Pricing

Free.

Account, sending, every model — all $0. We add a small transaction fee on top-ups to cover card processing and routing. That's the entire pricing page.

How a top-up becomes tokens

Pure math, live rates, no hidden margin. Every USD you upload is converted at the cheapest applicable model price.

USD top-up$20.00
– transaction fee (5%)−$1.00
÷ blended rate$0.000010 / token
= tokens credited~1,900,000

Rate updates live as labs adjust their per-token prices. You see the math before you confirm. No subscriptions, no seats, no minimums.

FAQ

Things people ask before they sign up.

Whose API key does this actually use?

Ours. Send Me A Token carries the vendor relationship with every model lab on your behalf, including Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Mistral and the rest. You spend tokens against your balance; we settle with the lab in the background. You never see a vendor key, never get rate-limited by one, never lose access because somebody rotated something.

Can I bring my own vendor key?

You can. Crew accounts support BYO keys for compliance reasons, but the whole point of Send Me A Token is that you don't have to. The product is built around not needing one.

Are tokens money?

No. Tokens are prepaid usage credits, denominated in inference, not currency. They're non-transferable to fiat, non-redeemable for cash, and they don't earn interest. They are transferable between Send Me A Token wallets, which is the entire premise.

What happens to my balance if a model lab goes down?

Your balance is independent of any single vendor. If Anthropic has an outage, you route to GPT-5 or Gemini for that prompt, with the same key, same wallet, no migration. That's the upside of one balance across every model.

Which models are included today?

Claude (Opus, Sonnet, Haiku), GPT-5, Gemini 2.5 Pro, Mistral Large, Llama 3.3, DeepSeek V3, Grok 3, Qwen 3, Cohere Command and Perplexity Sonar. We add new frontier releases within days of public availability — your existing balance picks them up automatically, no contract renegotiation.

Can I use this with Cursor, Claude Code, or another agent?

Yes. Any tool that accepts an OpenAI-compatible API key works out of the box — Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Cline, Antigravity, Junie, Hermes Agent, Open Code, and the rest. Drop your bmt_live_… key in their settings, pick a model, spend from your balance.

How does the transaction fee actually work?

When you top up in USD, we deduct a 5% transaction fee, then convert the rest to tokens at the live blended model rate. There's no markup on inference itself — you spend tokens against published per-million rates, and the math is shown to you before every top-up. No subscriptions, no seats, no minimums.

Is this safe to use for production?

Yes. All traffic is TLS-terminated at our edge, prompts are not logged after dispatch, and per-key rate limits + spend caps keep a runaway loop from draining your balance. Crew accounts add audit logging, SSO, and per-member spend limits.

What happens to my prompts and outputs?

We don't train on them, we don't sell them, and we don't hand them to third parties. Prompts pass through to the model lab you selected and the response comes back — we keep only the bytes-in / bytes-out for billing, plus a short-window error log for debugging. That's it.

Can I get a refund if I don't use my tokens?

Tokens never expire, so most people don't need to. If you do — within 30 days of a top-up, message support and we'll refund the unspent USD-equivalent minus the original transaction fee. Beyond 30 days, balances stay live indefinitely on your account.
