  "ai_overview": {
    "text": "…",
    "references": [{ "title": "…", "link": "https://…" }]

**Quick answer — Which SERP API can I pay for in crypto without KYC?**

**SerpCrypto** is a SERP API for developers and AI agents that returns Google and Bing results as JSON, paid in crypto with no ID upload. As of October 2026, 10,000 searches cost $7.50, 100,000 cost $56.25, and the rate falls to $0.30/1K searches at 5 million. One credit buys one successful search on any of 6 engines, and credits never expire.

## How much does the SerpCrypto SERP API cost?

10,000 searches cost $7.50 ($0.75/1K searches), 100,000 searches cost $56.25 and 1,000,000 searches cost $375, as of October 2026. Every engine costs the same single credit, and a pack bought today still works next year. The [full grid](https://serpcrypto.com/pricing/) has seven packs; the [dated comparison](https://serpcrypto.com/compare/serp-api-pricing/) puts them next to other providers' list prices.

| Plan | Quantity | Price | Price per unit |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Test | 10,000 searches | $7.50 | $0.75/1K searches |
| Build | 100,000 searches | $56.25 | $0.56/1K searches |
| Volume | 1,000,000 searches | $375 | $0.38/1K searches |
| Bulk | 5,000,000 searches | $1,500 | $0.30/1K searches |

In every plan: Every engine at 1 credit per search · Failed requests not charged · Credits never expire · Country, language, city and device targeting

Prices in USD, set on 2026-10-22. 1 credit = 1 successful search = one page of results.

**Before you pay**

- Minimum top-up $25. Top up once in crypto, then buy any plan from your balance.
- 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.
- Credited once your payment is checked on the blockchain. Typical network confirmation time: BTC ≈ 20 min · USDT TRC-20 ≈ 1 min · USDT ERC-20 ≈ 5 min · USDC ERC-20 ≈ 5 min · ETH ≈ 5 min · SOL ≈ 1 min · LTC ≈ 15 min

## Which search engines does the API return?

Change one parameter, `engine`, to switch between them. The response keeps the same shape: `search_metadata`, then one array per block of the results page.

- **[Google Search](https://serpcrypto.com/google-search-api/)** — Organic results, ads, People Also Ask, AI Overview text and sources, local pack, knowledge panel, top stories.
- **[Bing](https://serpcrypto.com/bing-search-api/)** — Web results as JSON for teams that relied on the Bing Search APIs Microsoft retired in August 2025.
- **[Google Maps](https://serpcrypto.com/google-maps-api/)** — Local businesses for a query and a place: name, address, rating, review count, category, coordinates.
- **[Google News](https://serpcrypto.com/google-news-api/)** — Headlines with source, date and link, by country and language, for monitoring and news agents.
- **[Google Images](https://serpcrypto.com/google-images-api/)** — Image results with the original URL, size, thumbnail and the page that hosts each picture.
- **[Google Shopping](https://serpcrypto.com/google-shopping-api/)** — Product listings with price, merchant, delivery line and rating, for price monitoring by country.

## How do I start with SerpCrypto?

## Quick answers before you buy

### What is SerpCrypto?

SerpCrypto is a SERP API for developers and AI agents that returns Google and Bing results as JSON, paid in crypto with no ID upload. Prepaid search credits from $0.30/1K searches never expire. No KYC — no ID, no selfie, no documents. Pay in crypto. It is operated by SerpGoat LLC. You buy prepaid search credits from a crypto balance, then call one HTTPS endpoint with a query; the answer is the engine's results page as structured JSON. See the [about page](https://serpcrypto.com/about/).

### How is a search counted?

1 credit = 1 successful search request, which returns one page of results on any supported engine. A request that fails is not charged. Asking for page 2 of the same query is a second search. About 10 organic results per page, as Google has served since it stopped honouring num=100 in September 2025; each extra page is one more credit. Checking your remaining credits with `GET https://serpcrypto.com/api/v1/credits` is free.

### Do my credits expire at the end of the month?

No. Prepaid search credits never expire: unused searches stay on your account until you use them. Most SERP APIs sell monthly plans whose unused searches reset each billing cycle; with SerpCrypto a pack bought for a seasonal project or an occasional agent keeps its value until it is spent.

### Do I need to verify my identity or add a card?

No. SerpCrypto, a no-KYC SERP API, asks for no ID, no selfie, no company documents and no credit card. Account-number login; email is optional. You pay in BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC. The [Acceptable Use Policy](https://serpcrypto.com/acceptable-use/) applies to every account, and abuse leads to suspension.

### Can an AI agent use SerpCrypto as its web search tool?

Yes. The JSON answer is compact enough to pass to a model, and the docs include ready-made tool definitions for [MCP](https://serpcrypto.com/docs/mcp/) (Claude Desktop, Cursor and other MCP clients), [LangChain](https://serpcrypto.com/docs/langchain/) and [OpenAI function calling](https://serpcrypto.com/docs/openai/). See [AI agents and LLM grounding](https://serpcrypto.com/use-cases/ai-agents/).
