TypeScript

import Anthropic from "@anthropic-ai/sdk";

const client = new Anthropic({
  baseURL: "https://api.apitoken.sale",
  apiKey: "sk-pool-•••",
});
const msg = await client.messages.create({
  model: "claude-opus-4-8",
  max_tokens: 1024,
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello" }],
});

Verify the switch worked

After changing the base URL, make one request and confirm you get a normal Anthropic response. Streaming, tool use and system prompts all behave exactly as with api.anthropic.com — only the billing endpoint changed.

• A 401 means the key or base URL is wrong — re-check both.
• Keep the same model IDs; no code around messages needs to change.
• Read usage per request in the dashboard to confirm spend and your discount.
