Platform Fees

We take care of everything.

Calling blockchain smart contracts requires funds: “It is the fuel that allows it to operate”.

Fees compensate miners for their computational efforts in processing and securing transactions on the network. They are fundamental to the blockchain's sustainability, security, and efficiency, ensuring the network remains robust and decentralized.

Blockchain Web Services (BWS) aims to transform the blockchain market by making innovative solutions accessible to a broad audience, including those without technical or Web3 experience.

At the core of our ecosystem, we're launching the $BWS token, which is used to fund developers and ensure ongoing platform maintenance.

By utilizing $BWS, we incentivize continuous innovation and improvement, fostering a vibrant developer community. Our intense engagement with developers is crucial, as it enables the exponential growth of diverse and scalable blockchain solutions tailored to meet the needs of both businesses and everyday users.

Interacting with blockchain requires paying fees, so it's important to understand how Blockchain Web Services manages those fees to offer the best user experience to our customers.

In any scenario, we handle all the blockchain complexities. You interact with the blockchain(s) we support using our simplified API, and you don't need to worry about anything other than naming the blockchain you want to use.

Pricing Example

Suppose you subscribe to Blockchain Web Services and want to create 100 new NFTs on the Polygon blockchain using BWS.NFT.zK to create the NFTs, and BWS.IPFS.Upload to save your images to IPFS.

Creating those 100 NFTs will cost you:

100 IPFS Images, included    = 0 USD
100 NFTs x 0.02 Network Fee  = 2 USD                                

Your next bill will show an extra 2 USD to your monthly plan.
