The short version

  • Each has a real cost: DeBank developer API access is metered on a units-based quota system rather than flat unlimited access; each API key has a units balance drawn down per call, tracked via /v1/account/units with 30 days of daily usage history; Rainbow free instant deposits and fee auto-compounding are gated behind the paid Rainbow Black tier; the vendor's own site states "Upgrade to Rainbow Black for free instant deposits, bigger rewards, and up to 100% of your trading fees auto-compounded", implying standard accounts pay deposit and trading fees
  • They diverge on capability: DeBank covers Portfolio Tracking, Rainbow covers Ethereum Wallet.
