ZCode gives away 500 million free tokens for GLM-5.3 and GLM-5.3-Flash
To mark China’s Programmer’s Day, ZCode developers launched a free promotion: 500 million tokens for the GLM-5.3 and GLM-5.3-Flash AI models.
- 200 million tokens are allocated to GLM-5.3;
- 300 million tokens are allocated to GLM-5.3-Flash.
Even users on the free tier can claim the tokens. A total of 200,000 packages are distributed in queue order.
The promotion runs from October 23 to October 26. The tokens can be used only inside ZCode, not through API.
Users who already have ZCode installed are advised to update the app and check for available packages.
Why it matters
AnalysisThe giveaway lowers the barrier to testing coding-focused AI models and lets users compare GLM-5.3 and GLM-5.3-Flash inside ZCode without API costs.
