Meet Payload

A transparent, vendor-neutral relay for Solana transactions that helps you land more transactions with less latency.

What is Payload?

Payload is a transparent, vendor-neutral relay for Solana transactions. It gives developers a consistent, simplified way to send tipped transactions that land faster—without being locked into a single RPC provider or integration contract.

Why Use Payload?

There are many ways to send transactions on Solana—standard RPC calls, staked QoS, block engines, MEV relays, and more. Payload makes it easy to route through all of them using one consistent interface. Instead of guessing which RPC is best or managing multiple client configurations, developers simply send their transaction to the Payload endpoint and select their preferred mode (QuickNode, Helius, Jito, or others).

Unlike other solutions that require accounts, credentials, or monthly commitments, Payload is stateless and trustless. Tips are paid directly in the transaction, eliminating the need for third-party billing, access tokens, or custom integration logic. This ensures developers retain full control and flexibility over how their transactions are prioritized and routed.

Key Features

  • Vendor-Neutral: No lock-in to specific RPC providers
  • Stateless: No accounts or credentials required
  • Trustless: Tips paid directly in transactions
  • Flexible: Choose your preferred RPC mode
  • Simple: One consistent interface for all providers
  • Transparent: Clear visibility into transaction routing

Use Cases

Payload is designed for developers who want to land more transactions with fewer assumptions:

  • DeFi trading bots requiring fast transaction execution
  • High-throughput wallet applications
  • Priority-sensitive applications
  • Applications needing reliable transaction delivery
  • Projects requiring flexible RPC provider selection
