Use Claude in Cursor with an API Key, No Anthropic Account
Enter the AAA TOKEN base URL and API key in Cursor and use Claude and other models right in your editor. No Anthropic account is needed, and you pay only for what you use.
Cursor supports custom OpenAI-compatible API endpoints. AAA TOKEN provides a standard /v1 interface, so you can override the OpenAI Base URL in Cursor, use your AAA TOKEN key, and pick Claude, GPT or Gemini models for coding, refactoring and chat.
Why use AAA TOKEN with Cursor
No Anthropic account required
Sign up for AAA TOKEN to get a key. There is no separate Anthropic account and no need to attach an international credit card.
One key, many models
Add Claude, GPT and Gemini to Cursor's model list and choose the best model for each task.
Pay as you go, no monthly fee
Usage is deducted from your top-up balance by actual tokens. Use less and pay less, with no subscription lock-in.
Top up with USDT or PayPal
USDT, PayPal and Paddle are supported for more flexible payment.
Set up Cursor in four steps
- Register and create a key — Register for AAA TOKEN, top up, and create an API key in your account dashboard.
- Open Cursor settings — Go to Cursor Settings, open the Models page, and find the OpenAI API Key and Override Base URL fields.
- Enter the endpoint and key — Set Override Base URL to the AAA TOKEN /v1 endpoint and paste your API key.
- Add a model and start coding — Add a Claude (or other) model name to the model list, select it, and use it in Chat and Composer.
Cursor configuration example
Fill these fields into Cursor's OpenAI provider settings, then add the model names you want to the model list.

// claude-3-opus-20240229
// gpt-4o, gemini-1.5-pro, etc.
