Ankr review

Ankr lists request fees of $1 to $70, a range that stretches from cheap to expensive tiers depending on the plan. The median across the providers tracked here is €0.39, so the low end of the Ankr range sits under that mark and the high end sits well over it.

Plans include 1,000,000 free requests. That allowance ranks 9 of 39 brands in the free requests ranking, and it matches the site median of 1,000,000, so a low-traffic build has room to run before a charge appears.

Request pricing of $1 to $70 places Ankr at 25 of 36 brands tracked for that measure. The lowest request pricing in the set starts at €0.02, so buyers with heavy traffic have cheaper ground to cover.

The service is contracted through Ankr Inc., headquartered in the United States. Buyers who need a US counterparty, or invoicing in US dollars against the $1 to $70 rate, can weigh that against providers registered elsewhere.

Support runs through email, chat and help centre. Email, chat, a help centre and community channels cover most questions, but a phone line is not among the listed routes, so teams that need voice support should plan for a slower written answer.

Ankr charges $1 to $70 for requests, while DeepInfra lists $0.019 to $10. The two ranges overlap, so the choice turns on where a build sits inside each one and how much traffic it carries.

Google Cloud lists $0.40 for requests, which sits under the low end of Ankr's $1 to $70. For a build with heavy request volume that difference adds up quickly, while the 1,000,000 free requests in Ankr's plan soften a smaller start.

With 1,000,000 free requests in the plan, a small team can run light traffic before anything is charged. Past that allowance the bill follows $1 to $70, which is higher than the site median of €0.39, so steady growth in calls needs a second look.
