Our free API scholarship program will allow select projects access to our unbeatable API, and all they need to do in exchange is add backlink attributes to our website.
CoinMarketCap’s main mission is to highlight the cryptocurrency revolution — that’s why we’re the number one crypto data aggregator, showing you real-time crypto prices from all the way back in 2013. We’ve probably been around the crypto space longer than most of you!
As part of our aim of bringing crypto literacy to as many people possible all around the world, we’ve decided to start offering our (normally paid) API to projects and companies that share a similar goal with us — making crypto accessible.
Our free API scholarship program will allow select projects access to our unbeatable API, and all they need to do in exchange is add backlink attributes to our website.
It’s that easy — apply for our API scholarship program here, tell us a bit about yourself and why you want to use our API, and then we can begin the mutual data sharing. All that we ask of our new free API scholars is that you have a linkable CoinMarketCap attribution.
Cryptocurrency is still a relatively new field, and we feel it’s important to support projects in the space, giving them the opportunity to share our accurate data with their users.
The benefits of the CoinMarketCap API are numerous — your projects can have access to our accurate data points and real-time chart data, staying ahead of the game with the advanced market data. As the market changes and new trends emerge, our API can give the ability to run experiments and draw your own, informed conclusions about where the market is going (to the metaverse? Or merely to the moon?).
By joining our free API scholarship program, you’ll be on the level with a group of pretty impressive companies that also use our top-notch data.
