Anthropic adds monthly API credits to Claude Max and Team plans

Anthropic is now offering monthly API credits to users subscribed to its Claude Max and Team plans. Subscribers on Max 5x will receive $100 per month, while Max 20x users get $200. Team plans can receive up to $500 pooled credits for the organization. These credits can be used for various Claude API services, including the Messages API and Batches API, as well as the Console Playground, Managed Agents, and Agent SDK. However, they do not cover interactive Claude Code or usage through third-party platforms like Amazon Bedrock or Google Cloud Vertex AI. To claim these credits, users must link a Claude Console organization through their account settings, and unused credits do not roll over to the next month. AI

IMPACT This change offers increased value for existing Claude Max and Team subscribers, potentially encouraging wider API adoption among these user groups.
