FAQ for Jupiter API
About Jupiter API
Q: What is this, and what is it used for?
A: The Jupiter API is a tool that allows developers to easily access liquidity on Solana. By simply specifying the desired pair, amount, and slippage, the API returns the serialized transactions required to execute the swap. These transactions can then be submitted to the Solana blockchain with the necessary signatures to complete the swap.
Additionally, by using a dedicated connection instead of a public API, you can achieve even faster trades with less congestion. We provide high-speed, dedicated Jupiter API endpoints for this purpose.

Q: Which plan should I start with?
A: We recommend starting with the free plan to test the service, and then upgrading to a paid plan based on your project’s needs. The free plan allows you to understand the basic features and usage of the service. Once testing is complete, select a rate-limited plan that fits the scale of your project. Each plan is valid for one month after payment and will automatically renew monthly. You can change or cancel your plan at any time.
