What you get
$1 in trial credit on Nebius Token Factory, Nebius's inference platform for open models, granted once when you first sign up and valid for 30 days. It is a smoke-testing allowance rather than a development budget. Billing setup is part of onboarding and cannot be skipped, and it requires a bank card — so this is a trial credit on a billable account, not a card-free free tier.
How to claim it
- Sign up for Nebius Token Factory
- Complete the mandatory billing-account setup during onboarding (a bank card is required)
- The $1 trial credit is applied on first sign-up and expires 30 days later
Verification history and earlier terms
This dated editorial record includes superseded conditions. Use the current facts above for eligibility and access.
Verified 2026-09-19 against Nebius's own billing documentation, independently re-fetched today. Amount and window verbatim: "Upon first sign-up, you receive $1 in trial credit, valid for 30 days." CARD REQUIREMENT IS VERBATIM, NOT DEDUCED (the V26 lesson): "Setting up a billing account requires a bank card.", reinforced by "Billing setup is mandatory—you cannot complete onboarding without it." NAME: the product is documented as "Nebius Token Factory"; the older "Nebius AI Studio" branding still appears on some Nebius marketing pages, so a future sweep should check which name the docs use. Nebius also documents promo codes granting additional credits ("A promo code provides free Nebius Token Factory credits and is typically issued as part of a special offer."), but publishes no amount for them, so nothing about promo codes is quantified here. NOT SOURCED: any per-model allowance; any larger grant for startups or researchers. Re-verified 2026-10-10: unchanged. docs.tokenfactory.nebius.com/other-capabilities/billing-new still renders "When you sign up for Nebius Token Factory, you are prompted to create a billing account during onboarding. Billing setup is mandatory—you cannot complete onboarding without it. Setting up a billing account requires a bank card." and "Upon first sign-up, you receive $1 in trial credit, valid for 30 days." — still the only 'trial' mention across docs.tokenfactory.nebius.com/llms-full.txt. Promo codes still unquantified. NAME settled: nebius.com/ai-studio now redirects to nebius.com/services/token-factory and studio.nebius.com to tokenfactory.nebius.com; "Nebius AI Studio" no longer appears as a product name on the pages checked. The marketing page's "Start free" buttons are a CTA label, not a no-card statement. Re-verified 2026-10-21 in the audit-remediation source sweep: current primary offer page and the material eligibility, validity, unit and payment evidence recorded in SOURCE-VERIFICATION.csv. Historical notes above are retained as history, not current terms. No account was created and no claim was submitted.
