Behind every QuickNode API endpoint sits a global network of nodes — globally-distributed across 10+ regions, geo-balanced, multi-cloud, highly-available & auto-scaling — at your service, on-demand.
Every request sent to your QuickNode API endpoint is intelligently routed to the nearest node cluster based on IP, ensuring lowest latency.
Highly reliable, as the network is distributed across 5+ different cloud & bare-metal providers, in US East, West; UK; Europe; India; Singapore; Tokyo and Sydney — with automatic failover in case of an issue.

Our internal monitoring systems make sure all nodes in the network serving requests are healthy, and kick out & replace nodes which are misbehaving.
We also monitor for performance, things like average latency, response time, and http response codes, to ensure every request is served quickly and reliably.
Based on network performance metrics, the network has auto-scaling capabilities to meet virtually any volume, on-demand.
Need the power of 10 nodes to handle your spike in traffic? You got it! Back down to 3 nodes tomorrow? No problem!
All the core network features are baked-in to the cost of usage (take a look at pricing here) — you only pay for what you use!
QuickNode API makes the Web3 infrastructure layer transparent for you.
Simply send the traffic, and we scale to meet your needs — every request is guaranteed to be fast and served from a healthy node nearby.
All you have to do is focus on building the best version of your application, and leave the infrastructure heavy lifting to us!
Ready to get started?
After login, you’ll see the dashboard with ability to Create Nodes, Add Team Members, get Support, and manage your Nodes — all in one place.
Clicking on the node will bring you to the Node dashboard, where your Web3 URLs (rpc endpoint, httpProvider & websockets) is shown, as well as Getting Started guides:
For more guides & tutorials, including how to set up with ethers.js, web3.py, ethereum.rb, and write your first smart-contract in Solidity, check our guides page!
How do I set up my code?
Check out our RPC documentation: QuickNode.com/docs
In web3js, for example, copy/paste the httpProvider link like so:
const Web3 = require('web3')const httpProvider = "https://your-node-name.quiknode.pro/hash/"var web3 = new Web3(new Web3.providers.HttpProvider(httpProvider));
