The offer

100,000,000 free GLM-5.3 tokens — credited automatically the first time an eligible new account logs into ZCode.

Window: Aug 16, 00:00 → Aug 17, 09:00 (UTC+8) — roughly Aug 15, 21:30 → Aug 17, 06:30 IST. Convert to your own time zone before relying on it.

"Eligible new users: log in to ZCode for the first time from Aug 16, 00:00 to Aug 17, 09:00 (UTC+8) to automatically get 100M free GLM-5.3 tokens. Limited availability; ZCode only." — official ZCode account

This is a dated promotion, not a standing feature. If you're reading this later, the 100M figure may no longer apply — check z.ai/blog/glm-5.3 or ZCode's own channel for whatever's currently live.

What GLM-5.3 actually is

PositioningZ.ai's flagship coding model — "frontier coding with emergent cyber capabilities"
FoundationSame base checkpoint as GLM-5.2 (~745B-parameter MoE), with much larger long-horizon post-training
Context window1,000,000 tokens
Where it livesInside the GLM Coding Plan, via the ZCode app — no standalone API or open weights for 5.3 yet
Free without signupchat.z.ai reportedly offers free chat access to Z.ai's models (unconfirmed for 5.3 specifically)

Claiming it

  1. Download ZCode for your OS (desktop app, not a CLI install).
  2. Install and launch. macOS: open the .dmg, drag ZCode to Applications. Windows: run the installer. Linux: the AppImage and run it.

  • Click Connect in the bottom-left corner on first launch to reach sign-in.
  • Create a new Z.ai account. The free credit is for accounts logging into ZCode for the first time — an existing account won't qualify.
  • Confirm the credit landed in ZCode's usage/billing screen before spending it.
  • Open a repo and set a Goal — ZCode decomposes a stated goal into file edits, terminal commands, and test runs.

    • Downloads (ZCode v3.7.7)

    If these 404 by the time a reader clicks, send them to zcode.z.ai/en/docs/install instead — it always points at the current build.

    After the free tokens run out

    GLM Coding Plan tiers: Lite ~$18/mo, Pro ~$72–80/mo, Max ~$160–168/mo (credit-based, roughly 30% cheaper billed annually). Sources disagreed on the exact Pro/Max numbers — confirm at z.ai/subscribe before treating these as final.

    Sources: ZCode's offer post, z.ai/blog/glm-5.3, zcode.z.ai/docs/install, docs.z.ai/devpack. Z.ai's own blog page wouldn't render for automated verification — worth a manual read before this goes fully live.
