Groq api Pricing & Top-Up

Pay-Per-Token Rates

Our groq api charges strictly for tokens consumed, eliminating monthly fees and hidden costs. You get a prepaid balance that powers direct OpenAI-compatible requests. Input tokens cost $0.15 per million, while output tokens cost $0.50 per million. Errors and refusals do not consume your credit. This transparent pricing ensures you only pay for actual generation. Streaming responses track usage in the final chunk. You can monitor consumption in real-time via the API response headers. No hidden tier limits exist. Your balance covers every request until depleted. This model suits high-volume workloads where predictability matters.

Crypto Payment Methods

We accept only cryptocurrency for top-ups, specifically USDT on the TRC20 network or USDC on the Base network. Minimum deposits start at $20, with a maximum of $500 per transaction. Your prepaid credit never expires, so you can top up whenever convenient. Transactions are processed quickly after confirmation. This method ensures privacy and eliminates third-party payment processor fees. You retain full control over your funding without linking bank accounts. Support is available for transaction issues via the dashboard.

Bonus Credit Tiers

Top-ups of $50 or more earn a 5% bonus credit added to your balance. Depositing $100 triggers a 10% bonus, while $200 or more grants a 15% bonus. These bonuses apply automatically to eligible transactions. The bonus credit expires at the same time as your base credit. This structure rewards larger upfront payments. You maximize your available tokens for development and production testing. No complex codes are required. The bonus is reflected immediately in your account dashboard. This is the most cost-effective way to fund your groq api usage.

Trial Credit Details

New accounts receive $0.50 in trial credit valid for seven days. The trial allows you to test the uncensored model with real API calls. This credit is consumed by token usage like any paid balance. It is non-refundable and non-transferable. After seven days, any remaining trial credit expires. You can generate a new key or sign up with a different email to receive another trial. This feature helps developers verify compatibility before purchasing crypto top-ups.

Limits and Refunds

Your account supports one active API key at a time. Generating a new key replaces the previous one. You are limited to 300 requests per minute and eight concurrent connections. Each request body must stay under 8 MB. Mistakes like double charges are resolved via the Support page. Your prepaid credit is not refunded because it never expires. Errors in generation do not charge your balance. This system ensures predictable spending for your groq api integration. Monitor your usage dashboard to stay within these limits.
