Searching for a cheap DeepSeek API usually means you want a lower effective price at your volume. We start from DeepSeek's official list price and quote a discount based on your monthly volume: higher, steadier volume gets better pricing. We do not publish our own prices or discount levels. Send your expected monthly spend and we reply on Telegram within 24 hours with a concrete number.
The endpoint is OpenAI-compatible. If your code already uses the OpenAI SDK, change base_url, the API key and the model name. Setup details are in the API docs.
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(
base_url="https://vantixcloud.com/v1",
api_key="vx-your-key-here",
)
resp = client.chat.completions.create(
model="deepseek-flash",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}],
)
print(resp.choices[0].message.content)The same endpoint also serves Qwen (qwen3.8-max, qwen3.7-max, qwen3.7-plus) and GLM (glm-5.2). Kimi, Seedance 2.0 and Wan are supplied by quote. Claude, GPT and Gemini are also available by quote, with delivery discussed case by case.
No. VantixCloud is an independent procurement service. We source DeepSeek API access through vendor and channel relationships and integrate it behind our own OpenAI-compatible endpoint. We are not DeepSeek, and we are not an official partner or agent of DeepSeek.
Can I buy the DeepSeek API without Alipay?Yes. Through VantixCloud you pay in USDT (TRC20) or by card. You do not need Alipay, WeChat Pay or a Chinese bank account.
How much does the DeepSeek API cost through you?The reference is DeepSeek's official list price (table above). We quote a discount on it based on your monthly volume. We do not publish our own prices; you get a concrete number one-to-one in your quote.
Do I need to change my code?Usually only three values: base_url (https://vantixcloud.com/v1), the API key we issue, and the model name (deepseek-v4-pro or deepseek-flash). Code written for the OpenAI SDK keeps working.
Can I start with a small volume?Yes. There is no contract lock-in. The API is prepaid: you top up a balance and usage is deducted per token, so you can start small and top up later.
How long does activation take?After payment is confirmed, we activate your key. The timing is confirmed with you on Telegram for each order.
Tell us your models and monthly spend. We reply on Telegram within 24 hours. Legal businesses only.
