Pay Claude API with Crypto
402ai.net routes Anthropic models through the same OpenAI-compatible API surface, so you can pay Claude API usage with Lightning or crypto-backed prepaid funding.
Why this matters for Anthropic users
If your actual need is Claude access, you should not have to give up standard SDK compatibility or fall back to manual account juggling just to pay with crypto.
- Access Claude models through the unified /api/v1 endpoint.
- Fund access with Lightning sats or supported crypto topups.
- Use the same token across API usage and the task marketplace.
Best for Anthropic users who want crypto funding with OpenAI-compatible client tooling.
How It Works
1. Choose Payment Mode
Use L402 if you want request-by-request settlement, or top up once if you want a reusable token for SDKs, agents, and repeated calls.
2. Use One Base URL
Send requests to https://402ai.net/api/v1 from OpenAI-compatible tools like Curl, Python, Node, Aider, Cursor, and Claude Code integrations.
3. Keep It Machine-Readable
Agents can discover routes, models, and payment modes through /llms.txt, /openapi.json, and /api/v1/catalog.
