Credit Usage

Credits are deducted from your balance on every request. This page outlines the cost per method for both the Spectrum API and direct RPC endpoints.

[!NOTE] Costs may change over time.

Spectrum API

Solana requests cost 2x the base credit amount. All other chains cost 1x.

For example, a balance lookup on Ethereum costs 50 credits, but the same call on Solana costs 100.

Batch endpoints multiply the base cost by the number of items in the request. Maximum 50 items per batch.

For example, querying block heights for 10 chains costs 50 x 10 = 500 credits.
