WebSockets

Connect to our WebSockets to receive real-time cryptocurrency data streams for rates, exchange rates, and tickers. WebSockets provide instant, continuous updates without the need for polling, making them ideal for trading platforms, portfolio trackers, and financial applications that require live market data.

API Usage

Please note that each WebSocket connection consumes one API request from your plan. After the initial connection is established, the data stream itself does not consume any additional API requests, unless a subscription message is sent, in which case one additional API request will be consumed.

Real-Time DEX Data

For exchange rates and tickers data from decentralized exchanges (DEX), you'll need the Real-time DEX data add-on. This add-on is only available on professional plan and provides access to live trading data from major DEX platforms, enabling you to track decentralized market activity alongside centralized exchange data.
