How to Get a TON RPC Endpoint

Step-by-step guide to getting a fast, reliable TON RPC endpoint

The Open Network (TON) has become the leading blockchain for Telegram-integrated applications, mini-apps, and payments. With TON's unique architecture (TVM, not EVM) and the massive Telegram user base, demand for reliable TON RPC access is growing fast. Here's how to set up a TON endpoint with GetBlock.

TON's API is Different from EVM Chains

TON uses its own HTTP API — not the JSON-RPC standard used by Ethereum and EVM chains. TON API methods include:

• getAddressInformation — get account balance and state

• getTransactions — fetch transaction history

• detectAddress — normalize address formats

• estimateFee — estimate transaction cost

• sendBoc — submit transactions

GetBlock supports the full TON HTTP API specification.

Step-by-Step: Get Your TON RPC Endpoint

1

Create a GetBlock Account

Go to GetBlock Dashboard and sign up. You can register with email or via Google/GitHub OAuth.

2

Create a TON Endpoint

Once logged in:

1. Click "Shared Nodes" in the left sidebar

2. Click "Create New Endpoint" or the "+" button

1. Select:

   • Protocol: TON

   • Network: Mainnet

   • API Interface: JSON-RPC or JSON-RPC(v3) or HTTP API(v4)

   • Region: Frankfurt (EU)

     

2. Click "Create": Your endpoint URL will be generated immediately.

3

Copy Your Endpoint URL

Your endpoint URL looks like this:

https://go.getblock.io/a1b2c3d4e5f6789012345678abcdef01/

The long string after go.getblock.io/ is your access token — keep it private.

const balance = await tonweb.getBalance("EQDtFpEwcFAEcRe5mLVh2N6C0x-_hJEM7W61_JLnSF74p4q2");
console.log(`Balance: ${TonWeb.utils.fromNano(balance)} TON`);
