Discover GetBlock for reliable Solana blockchain access. Integrate node services easily with flexible plans for dApps, NFTs, and DeFi solutions.
About GetBlock
GetBlock is an infrastructure provider that gives Solana users and builders fast, reliable access to Solana RPC and WebSocket endpoints without running their own node.
It’s designed for traders, analysts, bot developers, and dApp teams who need low-latency reads and writes to the Solana network, plus usage analytics and predictable limits that scale from hobby projects to production workloads.
GetBlock offers both shared endpoints for quick starts and dedicated nodes (including archive options) for maximum performance and isolation, with data centers available in multiple regions to minimize latency.
GetBlock Features
Short on setup, long on throughput—GetBlock focuses on giving you immediate Solana connectivity with the controls and tools you actually need to ship.
Cross-chain support
Available across multiple blockchains for seamless cross-network use.
Persistent uptime
Keep services available around the clock, independent of your personal device being online.
Multiple locations
Choice of data-center regions to reduce delay (latency) based on where users are.
Referral Program
Earn rewards by inviting other users.
What makes GetBlock special?
GetBlock stands out by combining developer-friendly Solana connectivity (RPC + WebSocket) with enterprise-style controls that are usually hard to find in plug-and-play endpoints: regional routing, detailed consumption accounting, and upgrade paths to dedicated and archive nodes.
For advanced streaming workloads, GetBlock also offers the Solana Yellowstone gRPC add-on, which is valuable for indexers and real-time analytics that need higher-fidelity streams than WebSocket alone. The availability commitments are explicit—99% on shared, 99.9% on dedicated, and 99.99% with load-balancer options—so teams can choose the reliability tier that matches their use case.
Pricing

Freemium
GetBlock provides a free plan and multiple paid tiers. At the time of writing, the Free tier includes a daily CU allowance and baseline RPS, while paid plans increase CU limits, RPS ceilings, and token counts (API keys).
Dedicated nodes are priced separately with unlimited RPS and request volume, and archive-data Solana nodes start from a listed monthly rate.
Always check current pricing before you deploy, as allowances and rates can change.
How to get started
Getting started is straightforward—no node ops required.
1
Create an account and get an API key.
2 minutes
Easy
Sign up, open the dashboard, and generate an access token you’ll use in your Solana endpoint URLs.
2
Choose Solana and a region.
2 minutes
Easy
Pick Solana (mainnet-beta, devnet if applicable) and select the closest region to your users for the lowest latency.
3
Copy your HTTP(S) and/or WebSocket endpoint.
5 minutes
Intermediate
Use the provided HTTPS RPC URL for request/response calls and the WSS URL for subscriptions (e.g., logsSubscribe, programSubscribe).
4
Test with a simple RPC call.
5 minutes
Intermediate
Send a basic method (for example, getBalance for an address or a “latest blockhash” request) to confirm connectivity and measure round-trip time before integrating.
5
Integrate into your app, bot, or wallet tools.
5 minutes
Intermediate
Replace your current RPC URL in code, environment variables, or custom-RPC settings (if your wallet supports it), then monitor CU usage and errors in the dashboard as traffic ramps.
Pro Tips
Tip 1
If your users are clustered in a region, select the nearest GetBlock location (e.g., New York, Frankfurt, Singapore) to shave milliseconds off order and quote updates.
