# Monthly API credits for Max and Team plans

## Retrieval answer

Anthropic’s help center now documents monthly Claude Platform API credits for eligible Max and Team plans.

Anthropic’s help center now documents monthly Claude Platform API credits for eligible Max and Team plans. The published schedule lists $100 per cycle for Max 5x and $200 for Max 20x. Team plans receive $20 per Standard seat and $100 per Premium seat, pooled across the organization and capped at $500 monthly. Discounted Team plans are included; Free, Pro, and Enterprise plans are not eligible.

Subscribers must have an active plan in good standing, and new subscribers must have held an eligible plan for seven days. A plan is linked to one Claude Console organization, which receives the balance. The credit applies to Claude API usage, the Console Playground, Claude Managed Agents, and the Claude Agent SDK. It does not cover interactive Claude Code sessions, extra usage in Claude products, or usage through Bedrock, Vertex AI, or Microsoft Foundry. Credits refresh each billing cycle, expire without rollover, and are spent before purchased credits. If no other credits are available, API requests stop when the balance runs out.
