Username API

Nano.to Usernames are aliases for Nano addresses. They are standardized for API use, and cost a small nano fee to prevent spam.

Usernames can be reserved for 1 Month, 1 Year, 2 Years, 5 Years and 10 Years.

Register a Username

To lease a Username, visit https://nano.to or register via API.

  • Usernames may only contain letters and numbers, up to 30 characters long.
  • You can lease multiple Usernames with the same nano address.
  • Any service that connects to Nano.to, supports Usernames.

Nano.to Connected Apps

We actively encourage other developers to add add Nano Usernames to their apps.

For privacy, don't get a Username for a particular address, and avoid the publicity.

Software bugs happen. Be sure to mention the address you tried to pay with, and which Username you were trying to get.
