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. Tempo is designed to be a low-cost, high-throughput blockchain with user and developer features that they believe should 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 lets you read and write data to Tempo networks using standard Ethereum JSON-RPC methods. Conduit operates optimized Tempo nodes, providing a scalable, low-latency interface for developers who want reliable access to the network without running their own infrastructure. Your RPC URL includes an API key for authenticated access, enabling you to query chain data, send transactions, deploy contracts, and integrate Tempo into your applications with minimal setup.
