This guide shows you two practical approaches: using Web3.js and raw JSON-RPC calls.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-is-bep20-and-why-does-it-matter\"><strong>What is BEP-20, and why does it matter?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>BEP-20 is BSC\u2019s equivalent of Ethereum\u2019s ERC-20 standard. It defines the rules every token on BSC must follow \u2014 things like how balances are tracked, how transfers work, and how approvals are handled.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because BSC is EVM-compatible, the two standards are nearly identical under the hood, which means most Ethereum tooling \u2014 Web3.js, Ethers.js, JSON-RPC methods \u2014 works on BSC with minimal changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if you already know the Ethereum ecosystem, you won\u2019t have to learn everything from scratch to work with BSC tokens.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-1-find-the-tokens-contract-address\"><strong>Step 1: Find the token\u2019s contract address<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Every BEP-20 token lives at a specific contract address on the BSC network. This address is what you\u2019ll use to identify the token in all your calls.<br><br>The easiest place to look it up is BSCScan. It\u2019s a search for the token by name and the contract address will be right there on the token\u2019s page. The project\u2019s official documentation usually lists it too.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-2-connect-to-a-bsc-rpc-node\"><strong>Step 2: Connect to a BSC RPC node<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>To read anything from the blockchain, you need an entry point \u2014 an RPC node. Think of it as the gateway between your code and the BSC network.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can run your own node, but for most projects it\u2019s much easier to use a provider like NOWNodes.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"heres-how-to-get-set-up-with-nownodes\"><strong>Here\u2019s how to get set up with NOWNodes:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sign up at nownodes.io.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pick your plan \u2014 you can begin with our START plan that gives access to shared crypto nodes with 100,000 requests for one month.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Generate an API key from your account dashboard. Treat this like a password \u2014 never put it in client-side code or commit it to a public repo.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your BSC RPC endpoint will be: https:\/\/bsc.nownodes.io\/your_api_key. You can also pass the key in the request header if you prefer to keep the URL clean.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You can test the connection quickly by opening Postman and sending a GET request to your endpoint. If it responds, you\u2019re good to go.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"method-1-using-web3js-in-nodejs\"><strong>Method 1: Using Web3.js in Node.js<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>This is the go-to setup for most backend work. Web3.js takes care of the tedious stuff \u2014 encoding, decoding, talking to contracts \u2014 so you&#8217;re not buried in low-level details before you even get to the actual problem you&#8217;re trying to solve.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"prerequisites\"><strong>Prerequisites<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Node.js and npm installed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Web3.js installed: npm i web3@1.10.0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The ABI for the BEP-20 token. You can grab this from BSCScan \u2014 search your token, go to the Contract tab, and click the ABI button to copy it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-script\"><strong>The script<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a minimal Node.js script that connects to BSC and retrieves a balance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>const Web3 = require('web3');\nconst web3 = new Web3(new Web3.providers.HttpProvider('https:\/\/bsc.nownodes.io\/\"API-KEY\"));\nconst tokenContractAddress = 'TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS';\nconst ownerAddress = 'YOUR_OWNER_ADDRESS';\nconst tokenABI = &#91;'YOUR_TOKEN_ABI'];\nconst tokenContract = new web3.eth.Contract(tokenABI, tokenContractAddress);\ntokenContract.methods.balanceOf(ownerAddress).call((err, balance) =&gt; { if (err) { console.error('Error:', err); return; } \nconst readableBalance = web3.utils.fromWei(balance, 'ether'); console.log(`Balance of address ${ownerAddress}:`, readableBalance); });<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Replace <code>TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS<\/code> with the token\u2019s contract address, and <code>WALLET_ADDRESS_TO_CHECK<\/code> with the address you want to look up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Run the script:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code><strong><code>node script_name.js<\/code><\/strong><\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"method-2-direct-jsonrpc-calls\"><strong>Method 2: Direct <\/strong><strong>JSON-RPC<\/strong><strong> calls<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Because BSC is EVM-compatible, you can use the same eth_call method you\u2019d use on Ethereum. This is useful when you want to avoid pulling in a library dependency, or when you\u2019re working in an environment where Web3.js isn\u2019t practical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The key thing to understand is how to encode your request. The data field in the call needs to start with the 4-byte function selector for balanceOf, which is 0x70a08231, followed by the wallet address padded out to 32 bytes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if your wallet address is 0x123&#8230;abc, the full data parameter looks like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>0x70a08231000000000000000000000000123...abc<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Put it all together in a curl request:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>curl --request POST \\\n  --url https:\/\/bsc.nownodes.io\/&lt;your api-key&gt;\\\n  --header 'Content-Type: application\/json' \\\n  --header 'api-key: &lt;your api-key&gt;' \\\n  --data '{\n\t\"jsonrpc\": \"2.0\",\n\t\"method\": \"eth_call\",\n\t\"params\": &#91;\n\t\t{\n\t\t\t\"to\": &lt;TOKEN_CONTRACT_ADDRESS&gt;,\n\t\t\t\"data\": &lt;balaceOf function\u2019s + address\u2019 hash&gt;\n\t\t},\n\t\t\"latest\"\n\t],\n\t\"id\": 1\n}'<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>The response comes back with the balance in hex. You\u2019ll need to convert it to decimal, then factor in the token\u2019s decimals (usually 18) to get a human-readable number.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"a-note-on-security\"><strong>A note on security<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Reading a balance is a read-only operation \u2014 you don\u2019t need your private key for it. That said, while working with blockchain tools it\u2019s important to follow security best practices: never hardcode your private key, use environment variables or a secrets manager instead, and never expose your API keys on the client side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re working with real funds, a hardware wallet is worth the investment. For development and testing, always use testnet addresses.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"verifying-your-results\"><strong>Verifying your results<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>After fetching the balance programmatically, it\u2019s always smart to double-check it on BSCScan. Simply search for the wallet address, locate the token, and compare the values. Any mismatch is almost always caused by decimal conversion \u2014 remember to divide by 10^18 (or the token\u2019s actual decimals).<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"wrapping-up\"><strong>Wrapping up<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>To check a token balance, find the contract address, connect to an RPC node, and call the balanceOf function \u2014 either using Web3.js or a raw JSON-RPC call. Both approaches work well; the right choice depends on your project setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you hit any issues while working with the BSC RPC node, the NOWNodes team is active on Telegram and Discord and can help you out. There\u2019s a lot more you can do once you have a reliable node connection \u2014 transaction history, event logs, contract state \u2014 but balance retrieval is a solid place to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-a89b3969 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-palette-color-7-color has-vivid-purple-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/nownodes.io\/pricing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Get Access to BSC Full Nodes #NOW<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-simple-note-info\"><a href=\"mailto:sales@nownodes.io\">Contact our team and we&#8217;ll help you get started, configure your endpoint, and offer ongoing support.<\/a><br\/><br\/>Submit a request through email.
