AI accounts
Plan for subscriptions such as ChatGPT or Claude without mixing card funds with API credits.
51cowork virtual cards
Choose a monthly balance target for AI accounts and developer tools. Review card balances, bills and transactions in a separate Card Console.
You are using a test environment. Card and payment activity does not establish real merchant acceptance.
Use cases
A separate card makes the intended budget and later charges easier to track.
Plan for subscriptions such as ChatGPT or Claude without mixing card funds with API credits.
Keep recurring charges for tools such as Cursor in a separate view.
When opening a new card for several overseas services, choose a larger target.
Five balance targets
The amount is a target balance, not a credit line, a monthly allowance or a guaranteed hard spending limit.
Test prices for the current test environment. Check the Card Console invoice for the actual amount due.
How the amounts relate
Each tier sets a target card balance. It is not bank credit or unlimited funds.
The balance is the latest observed card balance. Check its sync time; it changes with card activity and is separate from API credits.
The first bill includes the target and service fee. Monthly-fee cards bill the actual top-up principal plus the monthly service fee. Annual-fee cards charge 6% of the top-up principal plus $1 only when topped up; the annual fee is billed separately.
Choose a target that fits the subscriptions you intend to manage.
Review the current fee, first payment and availability in Card Console before any order.
Use the Console for balance, billing, card state and transactions. Payment confirmation, card delivery and the current card state are separate steps.
Open Card Console, sign in and check the available tiers. This environment uses test prices; invoice creation and payment depend on the service status shown there.
No. It is a monthly target balance, not borrowed funds, a monthly allowance or a guaranteed hard spending cap.
The test service fees and first payments are listed above. Later bills separate top-up principal and applicable fees. API credits cannot pay card invoices.
Merchant acceptance depends on that service and cannot be guaranteed.
Email support@51cowork.com for card or invoice issues. Discord: not configured. Telegram: not configured. Groups are for general discussion; do not share order or sensitive card details there.
Stop renewal in Card Console to stop future bills. Existing bills still need attention, and the card may be frozen after the paid service period ends. Stopping renewal does not close the card or issue a refund. Email support to request closure; fees and remaining-funds handling require confirmation. The Token Console top-up refund policy does not apply to cards.
One account identity, separate sign-ins. Card balances and bills stay separate from Token Console API credits and model usage.
