Pricing
You buy a prepaid balance and spend it per request at published, at-list rates. No subscription required, no top-up fee, and no international card — pay in taka, rupees, or dollars. The router and prompt caching quietly lower what each request actually costs you.

Top up once; the balance burns down as you use it. Prices shown are what you pay, tax included where it applies (Bangladesh VAT 15%, India OIDAR GST 18%).
| Pack | Bangladesh (bKash/Nagad) | India (UPI) | Global (card) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | ৳300 | ₹250 | $5 |
| Standard | ৳600 | ₹500 | $10 |
| Pro | ৳1,500 | ₹1,200 | $25 |
| Team | ৳3,000 | ₹2,500 | $50 |
Prepaid only. Balances are non-refundable once tokens are consumed — the same model every gray-market reseller uses, minus the reseller. Unused balance stays on your account.
Per-model rates
Billed per 1M tokens at these list rates. A request is billed at the price of the model that actually answered — when the router downgrades a simple task to a cheaper model, that saving is yours, not ours.
| Model | Input / 1M | Output / 1M | Cached input / 1M |
|---|---|---|---|
stratacode/glm-5.2 | $1.40 | $4.40 | $0.26 |
stratacode/glm-4.5-air | $0.20 | $1.10 | $0.03 |
stratacode/deepseek-v4-flash | $0.14 | $0.28 | $0.003 |
stratacode/qwen3.5-plus | $0.40 | $2.40 | — |
stratacode/auto (recommended) | billed at the routed model’s rate | ||
stratacode/free | $0 | $0 | — |
These are the published sell rates. They are the single source of truth the gateway meters against; the live catalog at /models reflects any change.
How it compares
A worked example for a month of moderate coding-agent use (~30M tokens, 4:1 input:output). Your effective cost with StrataCode falls further as the router and caching kick in — this table holds them flat to keep the comparison honest.
| Path | Sticker | Fee / markup | Pay from Bangladesh/India? |
|---|---|---|---|
| StrataCode | list | 0% top-up fee | Yes — bKash / Nagad / UPI |
| OpenRouter | list | +5.5% credit fee (min $0.80) | Card only |
| AICredits (India) | list | +10–11% (FX buffer + platform fee) | UPI |
| Buy direct (Z.ai / DeepInfra) | list | 0% | Card + forex only |
