What changed on Polygon recently

  • Heimdall v1 was replaced by Heimdall-v2 on mainnet on July 10, 2025 (new chain ID, CometBFT + Cosmos SDK v0.50, finality ~5 s); Heimdall API endpoint structure changed, so third-party integrations needed updating. source ↗
  • Rio upgrade (October 8, 2025) introduced Validator-Elected Block Producers (VEBloP), witness-based stateless validation and reorg elimination, aimed at ~5k TPS and lighter node hardware. source ↗
  • Full nodes must run Bor v2.0+ and Heimdall-v2 v0.2+; the erigon archive guide still pins Erigon v2.57.3. source ↗

Public Polygon RPC · checked 26 Oct 2026

Public Polygon RPC URLs, checked every week.

Free, shared Polygon endpoints from the chain registry that answered eth_chainId with 137 in our weekly check (4 of 7). Good for a wallet or a test; once an app, bot or indexer depends on it, move to a dedicated Polygon RPC endpoint.

Before you order

Dedicated Polygon RPC node: the questions buyers ask.

What is a Polygon RPC node?

A server running Polygon's node software (Heimdall-v2, Bor, Erigon) that answers RPC requests: reading balances and state, and sending transactions. It can be public and free, shared by a provider's customers, or dedicated to one client.

What is a dedicated Polygon RPC node?

A Polygon node on a bare-metal server that runs for one client only, with its own private RPC endpoint. Nobody else's traffic shares the machine, so there is no rate limit and no noisy neighbour, and every method the client exposes is on. Argusnodes builds, syncs, monitors and upgrades it for you at one fixed monthly price.

Is my Polygon node managed and monitored, and what does that cost?

Yes, and so is monitoring, both at no additional cost. We set up and sync the node, watch it 24/7 with live node and server metrics in your dashboard, apply every network upgrade and client update, and fix it when something breaks. If you need help around the node, such as connecting it to your app, moving off another provider or setting up an indexer, our engineers help with that too, at the same monthly price.

What is a private Polygon RPC endpoint?

An RPC endpoint that only your applications use. It sits on a dedicated Polygon node that is yours alone, on your own domain if you want one, and answers only the IP addresses you allowlist. No other customer's traffic shares the machine, so nobody else's burst becomes your latency, and there is no rate limit to hit.

How long until my Polygon node is live?

As soon as it has synced with the Polygon network, and we tell you the moment it is ready. Sync time depends on the node type (an archive node replays the full history, so it takes longest) and the client you pick (Heimdall-v2, Bor, Erigon), so your quote carries an estimate for your exact setup rather than a number that is sometimes wrong. The quote itself lands within the hour, around the clock.

What is included in the from $699/mo for my Polygon node?

Everything the node can do, with the premium add-ons other providers bill separately included free: unlimited RPS, every RPC method including debug and trace, unlimited WebSocket connections, your own domain with an IP allowlist, 18 cities to choose from, a 99.99% SLA with credits, 24/7 engineer support and live p50/p99 in your dashboard. There is no add-on price list because nothing is an add-on.

What hardware will my Polygon node run on?

A machine that meets Polygon's official hardware guidance (quoted in the spec sheet on this page) with headroom on top, on a dedicated bare-metal server. We never build at the minimum, because a node sized to the minimum becomes the bottleneck the day the chain grows. Ask before you order and we tell you the exact CPU, RAM and NVMe; the delivery email names the server, and root access is yours if you want it.

Which Polygon client should I choose?

Heimdall-v2: The consensus client (fork of Cosmos SDK v0.50 and CometBFT v0.38) that manages validators, spans, checkpoints and state sync; must run alongside Bor on every full node. Bor: The execution client (v2.0+) that produces and serves EVM blocks and exposes the JSON-RPC/WebSocket API (--http 8545, --ws 8546). Erigon: The documented archive-node client (erigon --chain=bor-mainnet --db.size.limit=12TB, v2.57.3), needing 16 cores, 64GB RAM and ~15TB NVMe with 20k+ IOPS; remote Heimdall is not recommended in production.

Does Argusnodes run Polygon archive nodes and trace methods?

Yes. Polygon's documentation describes full-history operation; we run Polygon archive nodes, from $1,259/mo, with trace and historical queries unmetered. Debug and trace methods are on for full nodes too, within their state window.

Can I run a Polygon validator with Argusnodes?

Yes. Polygon has a public validator role (Staking-based role capped at 105 active validators (minimum 10,000 POL); new validators join by application when a slot opens, and a slot is not guaranteed), and we operate validators under the same monitoring and support as RPC nodes, quoted per setup. Pick "Validator" in the configurator and describe the stake setup.

Can I move my Polygon endpoint from another provider?

Yes. A dedicated Polygon node speaks the same JSON-RPC and WebSocket interfaces as the shared endpoint you use today, so migration is pointing your application at your own endpoint. Billing is monthly with no lock-in on our side, and support engineers are on the channels 24/7 during cutover.

Are there rate limits or connection caps on a dedicated Polygon node?

No artificial ones: unlimited RPS and no connection cap. The machine is yours alone, so the hardware is the only ceiling: if it can serve the request, you can send it. There is no per-plan connection cap because there is no plan tier.

How do I pay for my Polygon node, and can I cancel?

In crypto, with no KYC and no setup fee. Pay monthly, or save 5% quarterly and 10% annually, and your price is locked for as long as your node runs. Cancel at the end of any term; the node is provisioned for you alone, so there is no meter to escape and no exit fee.

What is the Polygon chain ID?

137 (hex 0x89), per Polygon's official documentation. A dedicated Polygon node answers eth_chainId with it, so wallets and libraries configured for Polygon work against your endpoint unchanged.

What is the Polygon RPC URL?

Public Polygon RPC URLs from the chain registry that answered our weekly check on chain ID 137: https://polygon.drpc.org, https://rpc-mainnet.matic.quiknode.pro, https://polygon-bor-rpc.publicnode.com. Polygon's official documentation (docs.polygon.technology) is the reference for its own endpoints. They are shared, rate limited and run by third parties, so they are fine for a wallet and not for an application. A dedicated node gives you a private Polygon RPC URL of your own, on your domain if you want, that nobody else uses.

Is Polygon RPC free?

Yes, public Polygon RPC endpoints are free: the ones that passed our weekly check are listed on this page. They are shared and rate limited, which is fine for a wallet or a test. A dedicated Polygon node is the paid option for an app, bot or indexer, at one fixed monthly price.

What is the best Polygon RPC provider?

It depends on the workload. Check four things: whether the node is single-tenant or shared, whether there are rate limits or credits, whether archive, trace and debug are included, and who answers when it breaks. For a wallet, a free public endpoint is enough. For an app, bot or indexer, a dedicated node with no rate limits avoids the throttling of shared plans. Our comparison pages (argusnodes.com/vs) set us against other providers, with sources.

Is Polygon the same as Polygon PoS?

Yes. Polygon PoS is the network's full name, chain ID 137, with POL as its gas token. A dedicated Polygon RPC node and a dedicated Polygon PoS RPC node are the same thing.

How do I add Polygon to MetaMask with my own RPC URL?

Add a network manually with the chain ID 137, the currency symbol POL and your private Polygon RPC URL in place of the public one. The steps are the same as for a public URL; the difference is that the endpoint is yours alone, so the wallet never hits someone else's rate limit.

Does Polygon have a block explorer?

Yes: polygonscan.com, as listed in Polygon's official documentation.

What is the Polygon testnet?

Amoy, chain ID 80002, per Polygon's official documentation. Test tokens come from the official faucet at faucet.polygon.technology. We build dedicated Amoy nodes too, on the same terms as mainnet.
