# Pricing

bloXroute pricing is modular and predictable. Customers begin with transaction-submission access and add chain-specific services, capacity, and optional features as needed. Longer commitments  qualify for discounted pricing.

### What You Start With

All accounts include **transaction submission access across all supported chains**, without requiring additional services.

Supported chains include:

* Solana
* BNB Smart Chain
* Base
* Ethereum
* X Layer
* Hyperliquid
* Monad
* TON

#### Rate Limiting and Credits

Some chains enforce rate limits on transaction submission. For these chains, usage may be governed by a **credit-based system**. Credit requirements and limits vary by chain.

### Pricing Dimensions

Pricing is determined by four components:

1. **Chain** – Services are provisioned per blockchain network.
2. **Service Type** – Streams, gateways, or add-ons.
3. **Concurrency** – Concurrent streams, connections, or gateway instances.
4. **Term Length** – Contract duration.

### Service Types

#### Streams (APIs)

Real-time data streams delivered via supported protocols (e.g., Cloud API, gRPC). Each stream is purchased per chain and priced by concurrency.

#### Gateways

Gateways provide low-latency access to transactions, blocks, and receipts via the bloXroute BDN. Gateways are provisioned per instance and do not include Cloud API streams by default.

#### Add-Ons

Optional add-ons extend functionality or deployment options, such as:

* Standalone gateway deployments
* Private regional routing
* Additional submission or throughput capacity

### Concurrency

Most services are priced by **concurrent streams or connections**.

* Each unit allows a defined number of simultaneous connections
* Capacity can be increased incrementally per service and chain

### Commitment & Term Length

Customers may choose longer contract terms to lock in pricing and receive discounted rates. Services can still be added or modified during an active term.
