Vercel AI Gateway pricing and free credits
Fee rules checked .
- Is AI Gateway free?
- The free tier includes $5 in monthly credits for eligible models, with lower rate limits. It starts with your first request. Buying credits moves you to the paid tier and ends the monthly free credit allowance. Source
- What does zero markup cover?
- Vercel adds no markup or platform fee to token rates. You still pay for model usage. Payment processing fees and enabled add-ons can cost extra; zero token markup does not mean every charge is zero. Source
- Does BYOK need paid credits?
- BYOK requires the paid tier and purchased credits, with no gateway fee. If your provider credentials fail, a fallback using Vercel's credentials can draw from your credit balance. Source
- Does the AI SDK cost money?
- The AI SDK is a free, open-source library. The model calls you make with it follow your provider or AI Gateway billing terms. Installing the SDK does not include unlimited model usage. Source

Country and region availability
Sources checked 2026-08-22Vercel does not publish a country-by-country availability list for AI Gateway.
- Country support status
- A country is not confirmed as supported unless Vercel and the selected model provider both allow access there.
- Access limits
- Vercel's AI terms exclude U.S.-embargoed countries and territories and restricted parties. Models routed through AI Gateway also remain subject to the third-party provider's terms and availability.
- Regions and data location
- Vercel infrastructure regions and regional infrastructure pricing do not establish where AI Gateway is legally available or where an upstream model processes data.
Check the gateway terms and the selected model provider before relying on access in a specific country. Network edge locations, billing currencies, and provider catalogs are not country-availability evidence.
