Billing & Payments
Available for both Freemium and Premium users. Manage from the Billing pane.
Your account runs on a balance of API credits. You top that balance up whenever you like — with crypto or a card — and Ankr draws down credits as you make requests. For how credits are priced and consumed, see Pricing and the Charging policy.
