Tempo RPC Quickstart

How to get started building on Tempo with Conduit RPC Nodes

What is Tempo?

Tempo is a general-purpose blockchain optimized for payments. It provides a low-cost, high-throughput environment with user and developer features designed to be core to a modern payment system. Conduit is a design partner on Tempo alongside Stripe and Paradigm.

What is the Tempo JSON-RPC API?

The Tempo JSON-RPC API is a fully managed, high-performance endpoint that you can use to read and write data on Tempo networks through standard Ethereum JSON-RPC methods. Conduit operates optimized Tempo nodes to provide a scalable, low-latency interface so you can access the network without running your own infrastructure. Your RPC URL includes an API key for authenticated access, which you can use to query chain data, send transactions, deploy contracts, and integrate Tempo into your applications with minimal setup.
