QuickNode vs Triport: pricing, limits, methods
Last updated:
Feature comparison
2× burst buffer, included. Finite request-rate limits show sustained RPS and short burst capacity. A full buffer at 20 RPS can absorb up to 40 requests at once and refills at 20 requests per second. There is no quota on the number of bursts and no extra charge for them. Size ongoing traffic to sustained RPS. Categories with no per-category cap have no numeric burst ceiling. How burst capacity works.

Estimates from each provider's public pricing linked below, using QuickNode's published 20–30 API credits per call, by chain: 20 API credits per standard EVM call and 30 per Solana call (the spread is the chain); trace and debug calls cost 2x, replay 4x (verified 2026-10-13). The range spans those published weights. Triport plans are flat subscriptions metered by RPS, not request counts: pick the plan whose sustained rate fits ongoing traffic. Finite budgets include a 2× burst buffer for short spikes at no extra cost.

When QuickNode is the better choice
- More listed requests per second per dollar: QuickNode Build lists 50 rps at $49/mo (API credits still apply), against Triport Basic at 20 RPS sustained · up to 40 burst for $20.
- Same or lower price, same or higher listed limit than Triport Pro ($249/mo, 100 RPS sustained · up to 200 burst on Ethereum and Polygon): QuickNode Accelerate lists 125 rps at $249/mo (API credits still apply).
- Same or lower price, same or higher listed limit than Triport Business ($499/mo, 250 RPS sustained · up to 500 burst on Ethereum and Polygon): QuickNode Scale lists 250 rps at $499/mo (API credits still apply).
- Higher published rate limits: QuickNode Business 500 rps. Triport's highest published limit below Enterprise on Ethereum and Polygon is 250 RPS sustained · up to 500 burst (Business).
- Fewer networks: Triport serves 9 mainnets and no testnets or devnets (QuickNode: 79 blockchains across 137 networks).
- If you need testnets or devnets: Triport serves 9 mainnets only.
- If your traffic fits a permanent free plan: Triport's Free plan is a 7-day trial, then a paid plan from $20/mo.
How to choose in 3 steps
- Identify the chains and methods your app needs (solana, ethereum, polygon, bsc, base, tron, robinhood, stellar, ton).
- Compare entry pricing, rate limits per network and the sustained-cost table above.
- Start with Triport's 7-day trial, then pick the plan whose rate limit fits your sustained throughput.
FAQ
- Does Triport support the same chains as QuickNode?
- Triport provides RPC for Solana, Ethereum, Polygon, BNB Smart Chain, Base, Tron, Robinhood Chain, Stellar and TON. This page compares the two on ethereum, polygon, solana — the scope of the comparison; QuickNode itself lists 79 blockchains across 137 networks (source linked in the table).
- What do 10M requests a month cost on QuickNode vs Triport?
- At 10M requests/month: QuickNode — $123/mo – $185/mo (Build); Triport — Ethereum and Polygon: $20/mo flat (Basic, 20 RPS sustained · up to 40 burst) · Solana: $20/mo flat (Basic, 60 RPS sustained · up to 120 burst). Figures come from each provider's public pricing pages (sources linked on this page).
- How current are these QuickNode figures?
- Competitor facts are taken from public documentation; see the source link and "Last verified" date at the bottom of this page — that is the date these QuickNode figures were read.
- Can I migrate without code changes?
- For compatible standard RPC calls, change the endpoint and API key. Check method availability, network, transports and plan limits first; provider-specific APIs can require code changes.
