Why CCSub

Everything developers need

AI API relay built for global developers. No VPN needed, works anywhere.

Full-strength, unmodified

Official enterprise-grade channels only. We reject reverse-engineered or degraded models. Built-in one-click key testing lets you verify model authenticity — a CCSub exclusive.

One-click setup

One API key for all models. Works with Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, Cursor, and 8+ tools out of the box. CC-Switch configures everything in seconds.

Best value

1 RMB = 1 USD quota — roughly 30% of direct API cost. Enterprise bulk purchasing passes savings directly to developers. Credits never expire.

Stable & transparent

Multi-route intelligent routing with instant failover. Every API call is traceable; full cost breakdown available at a glance.

NEW · Image Generation

Generate images, OpenAI-compatible

Call image generation with the same OpenAI Images API you already use. Model names like gpt-image-1 / dall-e-3 work out of the box — just create a key in the image group. Billed per image from your balance, credits never expire.

  • OpenAI /v1/images/generations compatible
  • Dedicated image key group — billing isolated
  • Synchronous — your image in seconds

Pricing

Simple, transparent pricing

1 RMB = 1 USD quota

Top up ¥100 and get $100 in quota. At ~7.2× official exchange rate, that's roughly 30% of direct API cost.

Pay-as-you-go

Each API call is billed by actual token usage, matching official pricing. Pay only for what you use. Credits never expire.

Monthly plans save more

Monthly plans include a fixed daily quota (e.g. $50/day on Standard), as low as ¥0.31/USD. Quota refreshes daily and stacks with pay-as-you-go balance.

VIP discount tiers

Spending automatically unlocks VIP tiers with lower multipliers. VIP8 gets a 0.88× rate — the more you use, the less you pay.

Example

One Claude Sonnet 4.6 coding exchange (5,000 input + 2,000 output tokens):

Input: 5,000 ÷ 1,000,000 × $3 = $0.015

Output: 2,000 ÷ 1,000,000 × $15 = $0.030

Total: $0.045 (about ¥0.045, half a cent)

¥1 covers roughly 22 exchanges like this.
