Model-portable.
Most credits lock you to one company. Boon doesn't. The person you send it to picks their favorite, and can switch any time. The gift is to AI capability, not a particular vendor.
The AI gift card.
AI, gift-wrapped.
One card. Every major model. No subscription. Sent in a minute, spent on whatever they're curious about.
$20 to $250. Delivered by email or printable PDF. No subscription, no account.
By the dollar.
Match the moment.
For the first spark.
For the next sprint.
For the long haul.
Why it's different.
Three things it gets right.
Respects their setup.
They get a standard OpenRouter key. Paste it into Cursor, Cline, Continue, LibreChat, or anything else that takes one. No new account, no app to install. Their prompts never pass through Boon.
Dollar-denominated.
$25 is $25, no matter how AI prices shift. We guarantee full value for five years from purchase. No expiration tricks, no dormancy fees, no asterisks.

Common questions.
The honest answers.
What can the recipient actually do with it?
Anything the major AI models can do: chat, draft, research, generate images, write code, summarize documents. Boon is API credit, not a feature-limited consumer plan.
Is this like a ChatGPT gift card?
Different. ChatGPT-style cards lock the recipient to one company's app. Boon is API credit through OpenRouter. They pick which model to use (GPT, Claude, Gemini, and many others) and which tool to use it in. No app to install, no subscription to manage.
What exactly does the recipient get?
An OpenRouter API key with the gift's dollar value attached. OpenRouter is the unified gateway to 400+ AI models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, and more. One key, every major model. The recipient pastes it into any tool that accepts OpenRouter keys (Cursor, Cline, Continue, LibreChat, custom apps, the OpenRouter web playground) and uses AI against their balance. When the credit runs out, the key stops working. No subscription, no recurring charges.
Does the recipient need to sign up for anything?
No subscription, no payment method, no account on our site beyond
verifying their email at redemption. If they already use AI tools
that accept OpenRouter (Cursor, Cline, Continue, LibreChat, anything
that takes an sk-or-v1-… key), they paste the key in and
start using it. If they don't, our redemption page shows step-by-step
setup for the most popular tools.
What if AI prices change?
Boon is denominated in dollars, not tokens. $25 buys $25 of capability at the time of use. If AI gets cheaper, the gift goes further. If it gets more expensive, the value still holds.
Can it be redeemed for cash?
No. It's a gift card for AI services. Federal CARD Act rules apply: cards never expire sooner than five years from purchase, no dormancy fees in the first year.
Is Boon affiliated with OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google?
No. Boon is an independent gift card that works across their APIs. Their names and trademarks belong to them.
