Paying for AI APIs in Algeria
All Methods, Zero Foreign Cards

6 payment methods. All in Algerian Dinar. No black market, no Paysera, no parallel market dollar. Pay for ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini APIs the same way you pay for anything else in Algeria.

The Problem: AI APIs Only Accept Foreign Cards

OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google all require an international Visa or Mastercard to pay for their APIs. Algerian banks do not issue internationally-accepted credit cards for online payments abroad. This leaves Algerian developers and businesses with two bad options:

✗Buy overpriced prepaid cards from the parallel market (risky, expensive)
✗Pay someone abroad in cash and share their account (violates ToS, account ban risk)
✗Subscribe via VPN — another ToS violation, unreliable, and expensive
✗Simply not use AI tools that could transform your business

DZRouter exists to solve this. We handle the international billing and let you pay us locally — in Dinar, through the methods you already use.
