About Z.ai GLM Coding Plan

Z.ai sells the GLM Coding Plan, a flat-rate subscription that provides GLM models (GLM-5.3, GLM-5.3-Flash and routed older IDs) inside AI coding agents and IDEs rather than a standalone chat app. It is plug-compatible with Claude Code via an Anthropic-compatible endpoint, works across 20+ tools including Codex, Kilo Code, Cline, OpenCode and OpenClaw with one shared quota, and every plan bundles Vision, Web Search, Web Reader and Zread MCP servers. Positioning: open-weights family marketed as Coding Ability Open Source SOTA and priced as the cheap alternative to Claude and OpenAI coding subscriptions.

Best for: Developers who live in terminal and IDE coding agents (especially Claude Code-style tools) and want high-volume, flat-rate model usage at a fraction of Claude Pro/Max or ChatGPT Plus pricing: budget-conscious indie developers and teams standardizing on open-weight GLM models across mixed agent tooling.

Payout mechanics

Plans: Lite $18/mo, Pro $72/mo (5x usage), Max $160/mo (20x usage), with quarterly and annual billing discounts. Usage is metered in credits with 5-hour and weekly caps (Lite 2,000/10,000; Pro 12,000/60,000; Max 28,000/140,000). Off-peak usage is charged at 50% credits. Quota never draws down the cash balance and cannot be used outside supported tools; subscriptions are non-refundable; cancel at least 24 hours before renewal.

Promotion rules from the vendor

Invite Friends, Get Credits (terms updated March 15, 2026): invited new users get a 10% instant discount on their first order only (minimum $0.50; once per user).
