This is the official two-minute path from a purchase to a working request.
1. After checkout you receive a redemption code (ONEAPI-XXXXXX).
2. Log in to the panel and open Account, then Redemption.
3. Paste the code and press Redeem. Credits appear instantly.
4. Open the Token page and create a token. Treat it like a password.
5. Call the OpenAI-compatible endpoint with the Authorization: Bearer header.
