What does paying with USDC look like?
Pick Claude Max 5×, Max 20× or Claude Pro and a term on the checkout. The price is itemised: Anthropic's list price plus our service fee — no hidden charges.
Pay the hosted invoice with USDC. Supported: ERC-20 (Ethereum), Solana, Base, BEP-20 and more. Solana and Base transfers confirm in seconds to minutes. The rate is locked, so the amount shown is the amount you send.
We buy your official gift subscription at claude.ai/gift with our own card and email you the redemption link — typically within a few hours, always within 24.
Open the link in a web browser, sign in to your own Claude account, and redeem. We never see your password, and the subscription never auto-renews.
Network fees: USDC on Solana or Base is fast and costs cents. ERC-20 USDC works too but Ethereum gas costs more.
USDC questions
Which USDC network is best?
Solana or Base if your wallet or exchange supports them — transfers cost cents and confirm in seconds. ERC-20 on Ethereum works everywhere but gas is higher. The invoice lists every supported network before you send anything.
Is USDC treated the same as USDT here?
Yes. Both are dollar stablecoins, both are accepted at the same itemised price, and both settle to the same fixed-rate invoice. Use whichever your exchange gives you cheaper access to.
Can I pay from Coinbase or Binance directly?
Yes — withdraw USDC from the exchange straight to the invoice address on a matching network. Double-check the network selector in your exchange matches the one you chose on the invoice.
Prefer a different coin?
Facts checked against Anthropic’s own pages: gift subscriptions are purchased at claude.ai/gift and governed by the terms at support.claude.com. If your card works there, buy direct — it’s cheaper.
