- Freemium: 200M API credits/month; Node API about 1,800 requests/min guaranteed. HTTPS only; WebSocket requires Premium. No paid overage is assumed for this free plan.
- Pay-as-you-go: $0.10 per 1M API credits, $10 minimum deposit. HTTPS EVM request $0.00002 (200 credits), Solana $0.00005 (500 credits). Node API up to about 1,500 requests/s on EVM and 4,000 on Solana. HTTPS and WebSocket; gRPC $0.000001 per call plus $0.5 per GB.
How Ankr counts usage
API credits at $0.10 per 1M: an EVM HTTPS request is 200 credits ($0.00002), a Solana request 500 ($0.00005). 200 API credits per EVM request, 500 per Solana request: the spread is the chain, not the method. (source, read )
Cost of 1M calls = units per call × Ankr's published price per unit. Unit prices come from the Plans table above:
- Pay-as-you-go: $0.10 per 1M credits.
| Call | Units per call | $ per 1M calls inside a plan | $ per 1M calls at Pay-as-you-go rate ($0.10 per 1M credits) |
|---|---|---|---|
| EVM HTTPS request (any method) | 200 credits | — | 200 × $0.10 = $20 |
| Solana request (any method) | 500 credits | — | 500 × $0.10 = $50 |
Units per call from Ankr's own method price list (source, read ). List prices; bandwidth, add-ons and taxes excluded.
Streams and how they are billed
Premium gRPC: $0.000001 per method call plus $0.5/GB of data transferred in both directions. (source, read )
