Quick answer

How do I pay for a SERP API with crypto?

On SerpCrypto, you top up your balance with at least $25 in BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC, sending the exact amount shown to the address shown, on the listed network. The top-up is credited once the payment is checked on the blockchain; you then buy search credits, from $7.50 for 10,000 searches. No KYC, no card.

Which cryptocurrencies can I pay with?

These coins and networks are accepted, and only these. USDT works on Tron (TRC-20) or Ethereum (ERC-20); USDC on Ethereum (ERC-20).

  • USDTTetherTRC-20 or ERC-20
  • USDCUSD CoinERC-20
  • ETHEthereum
  • SOLSolana
  • LTCLitecoin

How payment works

  1. Top up $25 or more

    Choose the amount and the coin (BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC). The crypto amount and its rate are locked for 30 minutes.

  2. Send it to the address shown, on the exact network

    The payment page shows our deposit address for the coin and network you picked: BTC on Bitcoin, USDT on Tron (TRC-20) or Ethereum (ERC-20), USDC on Ethereum (ERC-20), ETH on Ethereum, SOL on Solana, LTC on Litecoin. Send only that coin on that network: funds sent on another network or in another coin can’t be recovered. The network fee comes on top of the amount.

  3. Send the exact amount shown, then click “I’ve sent the payment”

    Each top-up has its own exact amount (down to the last decimals): that is how we find your payment and link it to your account.

  4. Credited once your payment is checked on the blockchain

    Your balance is credited once we have checked the transaction on the blockchain, after the network has confirmed it. Typical network confirmation times:

    CryptoNetworkConfirmationsUsual time
    BTCBitcoin2≈ 20 min
    USDTTron (TRC-20)20≈ 1 min
    USDTEthereum (ERC-20)12≈ 5 min
    USDCEthereum (ERC-20)12≈ 5 min
    ETHEthereum12≈ 5 min
    SOLSolana1≈ 1 min
    LTCLitecoin6≈ 15 min
  5. One balance for all your search packs

    Starting from a pack, you top up its exact price (or the minimum for a small pack): the pack is bought when the top-up is credited and your API key shows in the dashboard. Anything left on the balance buys your next pack. Unused balance stays on your account and never expires, and it pays for search credits. When a purchase costs less than the minimum top-up, the part added only to reach the minimum is refundable on request to support within 30 days of the payment, in USDT or USDC, as long as it has not been spent. The rest of the balance is not paid back, except where the law requires it.

Closed the tab? The pending top-up stays under Billing in your account: open it to see the address and the exact amount again.

Which coin and network should I choose?

Choose the coin you already hold, on a network your wallet or exchange supports for withdrawals. Three practical points help:

  • Stablecoins keep the dollar value steady. USDT and USDC are pegged to the US dollar, so the amount you send matches the amount credited, without a price move during confirmation.
  • Network fees differ a lot. Fees are paid to the network, not to us, and change with traffic. Check the fee your wallet shows before you confirm.
  • Confirmation times differ too. The table above lists how many confirmations each network needs and the usual waiting time.

If you have no preference, a stablecoin on a network your wallet already uses is the simplest choice.

Why is there a minimum top-up?

Each top-up has to be found and checked on the blockchain, so very small payments cost more to handle than they bring. The minimum is $25.

If the pack you want costs less than that, for example 10,000 searches at $7.50, the rest stays on your balance for later packs. Unused balance stays on your account and never expires, and it pays for search credits. When a purchase costs less than the minimum top-up, the part added only to reach the minimum is refundable on request to support within 30 days of the payment, in USDT or USDC, as long as it has not been spent. The rest of the balance is not paid back, except where the law requires it.

What happens after I send the payment?

Your top-up is matched by its exact amount and credited once the transaction is confirmed and checked on the blockchain. Then you buy a credit pack from your balance, and the credits and your API key appear in your dashboard.

  1. Send exactly the amount shown, on the network shown.
  2. Click "I've sent the payment" and keep the transaction ID (TXID) your wallet gives you.
  3. Wait for the confirmations listed in the table above.
  4. Buy a pack. Your API key appears in your dashboard as soon as you buy a credit pack from your confirmed crypto balance.

What if the amount or the network is wrong?

Send only on a network listed on the payment page. Coins sent on another network, or to an address for another coin, may not be recoverable.

  • Wrong amount: contact support at [email protected] with the TXID and your order ID. We check it by hand.
  • Wrong network or wrong coin: contact support with the TXID. Recovery depends on the network and is not always possible.
  • Payment not visible after the usual time: check the TXID on a block explorer. If it is confirmed, send it to support.

We never ask for your account number or your API key by email or chat.

Can I get a refund in crypto?

Refunds follow our refund policy. Within 72 hours of purchase, a credit pack is credited back to your balance if you used less than 20% of its searches. A pack that does not work, and that support cannot fix within 24 hours, is credited back in full. Top-ups are credited to your balance and are not paid back, except where the law requires it; the part added only to reach the minimum top-up is refundable on request within 30 days, in USDT or USDC, if unspent.

In short, an unused pack can go back to your balance within the stated window, and only the part added to reach the minimum top-up can be paid back in crypto, in USDT or USDC.

What can I buy once my balance is credited?

Any credit pack, paid from your balance: 10,000 searches for $7.50, 25,000 searches for $18.75, 100,000 searches for $56.25, as of October 2026. See all packs.

Paying with crypto: common questions

Can I pay with Monero or another coin?

No. SerpCrypto accepts BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC only, on the networks listed on this page. Coins and networks not listed are not credited.

Do you accept cards or bank transfers?

No. SerpCrypto is crypto only. If you buy crypto on an exchange first, the exchange may ask for its own identity checks; SerpCrypto does not.

Do other SERP APIs accept crypto?

A few do. When we read their pages on 22 October 2026, Decodo and Scrapeless stated that they accept cryptocurrency without naming the coins, and DataForSEO took Bitcoin on request through support. SerpCrypto lists its six coins and networks up front. See the comparison on our no-KYC page.

Do I need to verify my identity to pay?

No. Paying needs no identity check of any kind: no ID upload, no selfie, no paperwork. Account-number login; email is optional. See no-KYC SERP API.

Does my balance expire?

No. Unused balance stays on your account, and search credits bought from it never expire either. Prepaid search credits never expire: unused searches stay on your account until you use them.

Can I get an invoice?

Your dashboard lists your top-ups and orders. For any other paperwork, write to [email protected].
