Hello everyone

1. Get a Yandex "Passport" (i.e. profile)

2. Add a credit card
https://translate.yandex.com/developers/account
https://translate.yandex.com/developers/payment/methods
After adding a card, click the yellow "Add funds" button.

3. Get a key
https://translate.yandex.com/developers/keys
Click the yellow "Create a new key" button.
Type e.g. "For CAT tool" as the description.

The key looks something like this:
trnsl.1.2.30300705A083339B.53085a77bcde00fg.9f5eea97930h7i99j0973k8l3m38855950no5p33

Hi Samuel,

The key is so long. I got two keys. I never pay any charges to Yandex.
My only problem, two year ago, was to type a capcha in azbuka. I solved it with QTranslate as translatition into Russian and then past it.

I did not need to add a credit card Jul 1, 2020

I got the key quite a time ago, but I am sure I did not have to add a credit card. Of course, the procedure might have changed by now.
