Axelar Plans Pricing
Axelar does not publish tiered SaaS pricing for its network APIs. The Axelarscan APIs (network, validator, token transfer, GMP) are publicly accessible at api.axelarscan.io at no direct cost; usage is implicitly subsidized by the Axelar network's AXL token economics and validator fees. Cross-chain transaction fees (gas relaying) are paid on-chain in AXL or the native gas token of the source chain, and vary by destination chain and payload size. The AxelarJS SDK is MIT-licensed and free to use. Enterprise integrators may engage the Axelar Foundation for dedicated support or custom integrations. Use reconciled:false until an official developer pricing page is published.
Axelar Plans Pricing is the machine-readable pricing-plan profile for Axelar on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Plans specification.
It defines 2 plans, covering free and metered tiers, with named plans including Axelar Public API (Free), Axelar On-Chain Relaying (Pay-per-Use).
Tagged areas include Blockchain, Cross-Chain, Interoperability, Web3, and Plans.
Plans
Open access to the Axelarscan API suite (network stats, validator metrics, token transfer data, and GMP data) with no API key required. Rate limits are not published; sustained high-volume usage may be throttled server-side.
- Axelarscan API (Network & Token Stats)
- Validator API (Uptime & Metrics)
- Token Transfer API (Status & Stats)
- GMP API (Status & Gas Estimation)
- AxelarJS SDK (MIT-licensed)
On-chain gas fees paid by the developer or end user when initiating cross-chain GMP calls or token transfers. Fees are estimated via the AxelarQueryAPI and paid upfront through the AxelarGasService contract at the time of the callContract() or token transfer initiation. Amounts vary by destination chain, payload complexity, and real-time gas prices. No subscription or monthly commitment required.
- Cross-Chain GMP Call Relaying
- Cross-Chain Token Transfer Relaying
- Gas Estimation via AxelarQueryAPI
- Interchain Token Service (ITS) Transfers
