Annual billing is ~17 % cheaper (effectively two months free).
What costs what
Compute Credits scale with the upstream work a call generates. The current schedule:
- BCHN (Bitcoin Cash node JSON-RPC): 200 CC per call.
- Fulcrum (Electrum protocol): 100 CC per call. 10 CC for
server.pingkeepalives. - Chaingraph (GraphQL): 300 CC for queries / mutations, 150 CC per subscription push.
These are flat per-system rates — every method in a system costs the same headline amount. The reasoning is that real load doesn't track cleanly to method names (a getblock verbose=2 on a heavy block is way more work than getblockcount), so the costing simplifies to predictable per-call billing.
Testnets and regtest are billed at half rate (see Networks).
Headline rate
At Scale tier: $0.02 per million CC. That's the floor we publish externally. Hobby is intentionally subsidized as the entry tier.
What's included in every tier
- All three systems (BCHN, Fulcrum, Chaingraph) on all four networks.
- WebSocket subscriptions (Fulcrum + Chaingraph).
- TLS-terminated HTTPS with a wildcard cert (also covers per-customer subdomain aliases).
- Dashboard, usage analytics, audit log retention (365 days).
- BCH-native payment (no card on file).
- Per-token method/origin allowlists (Build+).

No overage
Crypto billing means no card-on-file. When your balance hits zero, requests reject (429 insufficient_balance) until you top up, upgrade, or renew. You're never billed an extra dollar you didn't authorize.
