FAQ
What is a NEAR Protocol node provider?
NEAR Protocol Node providers deliver managed crypto nodes and reliable infrastructure — giving developers instant access to the blockchain without the burden of running and maintaining their own servers. Instead of dealing with complex synchronization, heavy storage requirements, and ongoing maintenance, teams can get started immediately using high-performance hosted endpoints.
What is a NEAR Protocol RPC node?
A NEAR Protocol Node provides full blockchain access through Remote Procedure Call (RPC) endpoints. These RPC endpoints allow developers to interact with the network programmatically — sending transactions, fetching block and transaction data, querying addresses, and monitoring real-time network activity. In production environments, RPC access is the standard way most applications connect to blockchain nodes.
Should I run a NEAR Protocol node myself?
Running your own NEAR Protocol node is not necessary for most projects. Operating a node requires storage capacity, constant synchronization, security monitoring, and dedicated DevOps resources. These requirements often make self-hosted nodes costly and time consuming, particularly as your project grows.
What NEAR Protocol APIs does NOWNodes support?
NOWNodes supports NEAR Protocol RPC APIs on Mainnet, providing developers with access to blockchain data, account and wallet information, transaction broadcasting, balance checks, and smart contract interactions. These APIs can be used to build wallets, DeFi applications, payment solutions, blockchain explorers, and other Web3 services running on NEAR infrastructure.
You can try the interfaces even before purchasing our API through Testnet. There is a whole node list of our service https://nownodes.io/nodes.
How do I start using a NEAR Protocol node?
After logging into NOWNodes and selecting a plan, navigate to the Dashboard in your account and choose the NEAR Protocol network. Then scroll down the page and click the Add a New Key button. Once your API key is generated, you can immediately start using the NEAR Protocol node through RPC endpoints.
Can I access NEAR Protocol infrastructure for free?
Yes, you can start with our START plan that gives access to shared crypto nodes with 100,000 requests for one month.
