How to get a free DexGrade API key

Create a free API key in under a minute and use the DexGrade API for token safety checks, trades, prices and holders on 9 chains.

Do I need a key?

No. The API works without one at 30 calls a minute. A free key raises that to 300 calls a minute and 5,000 calls a day (the day resets at 00:00 UTC). CoinsWavez plans raise the daily allowance: Starter 20,000, Pro 50,000, Whale 200,000. Answers to apps can be up to 2 minutes old.

Create your key

It is free and takes under a minute.

  1. Sign up or log in on dexgrade.com (top right).
  2. Open your profile and find "API keys".
  3. Give the key a name, such as the name of your bot or app, and create it.
  4. Copy the key straight away. For your safety it is shown only once.

Use your key

Send it as the X-API-Key header. You can also add ?key=YOUR_KEY to the address, but the header keeps it out of logs.

curl -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_KEY" https://dexgrade.com/api/data/v1/token/solana/DezXAZ8z7PnrnRJjz3wXBoRgixCa6xjnB7YaB1pPB263

Keep it safe

Treat your key like a password: keep it on your server, never in a public website or app. If one leaks, delete it in your profile and create a new one.

What you can call

Token reports, a daily report for your token, the share card image, trades, price candles, price history, top traders and the token lists. See the full list on the Free API page.

Build a Telegram bot

See "Run your own Telegram safety bot with the free CoinsWavez API": a ready-made bot that checks any address posted in your group and posts your token's daily report.
