GLM Tokens

GLM API Token Pricing Instructions

Every GLM API call is billed per million tokens, with separate rates for input (what you send) and output (what you receive). Here's how official Z.ai pricing compares to U7BUY's discounted rates:

One balance, every model. When you top up GLM API tokens on U7BUY, your credits work across the entire GLM model family — GLM-5.1, GLM-5, GLM-4.7, GLM-4.6, and even the free GLM-4.7-Flash. There's no need to pick a single model at checkout or buy separate packages for different models. Your balance is shared. Call whichever model makes sense for each task, and the corresponding per-token rate is deducted automatically.

What Are GLM API Tokens?

GLM API tokens are prepaid credits for API access to Zhipu AI's GLM models (GLM-5.1, GLM-5, GLM-4.7, GLM-4.6), available through the Z.ai developer platform. Every request (input) and response (output) consumes tokens, priced per million — like a prepaid phone plan: load credits, spend as you go.

GLM-5 vs GLM-4.7 vs GLM-4.6 — Which Model Do You Need?

Choosing the right model isn't just about raw capability. It's about matching the model to your actual workload. A practical breakdown:
Use GLM-5.1 if: You're building production agents, complex coding assistants, or long-running autonomous workflows. The 8-hour sustained task capability and top-tier SWE-bench Pro scores make it ideal for serious software engineering applications.
Use GLM-5 if: You need flagship-level quality but want to keep costs down. GLM-5 remains highly competitive and is MIT open-source, meaning you can also self-host if your use case demands it.
Use GLM-4.7 or GLM-4.6 if: Your tasks don't require frontier reasoning.These models handle chatbots, content generation, data extraction, and moderate coding tasks extremely well. They're roughly comparable to GPT-4o-class models at a third of the price.
Use GLM-4.7-Flash if: You're prototyping, testing, or running low-stakes workloads. It's free. There's no reason not to use it for development and experimentation.
