Forta License helps Web3 organizations monitor on-chain threats, understand asset exposure, and screen blockchain transactions. Selecting a Forta license starts with identifying the service your team needs: access to Network detection feeds, institutional risk monitoring, or transaction screening.
A threat-intelligence subscription and a transaction-screening deployment serve different purposes. Before ordering, confirm the required product, supported blockchain, access method, and commercial terms.
- Network subscriptions: General Plan and separately priced Premium Feeds.
- Risk monitoring: Forta Risk for visibility into asset dependencies and exposure.
- Transaction screening: Forta Firewall for screening activity before execution.
- Buying considerations: Required coverage, integration, subscription conditions, and implementation responsibilities.
- Pricing: Confirm the current charge for the specific plan or enterprise service.
Request Forta Pricing: Send the required service, blockchain networks, monitoring or screening objectives, and integration needs. If you are unsure which offering applies, describe your intended use case.

Which Forta License Do You Need?
Start with the operational outcome you need, then confirm which offering provides it.
| Your Requirement | Option to Evaluate | What to Confirm Before Ordering |
|---|---|---|
| Access to non-premium Network detection bots | General Plan | Required bots, blockchain coverage, and current subscription terms |
| Intelligence from a particular premium detection feed | Premium Feed subscription | Feed identity, included intelligence, fee, and payment currency |
| Visibility into direct and indirect asset dependencies | Forta Risk | Asset scope, exposure requirements, and integration |
| Screening malicious or non-compliant transactions before execution | Forta Firewall | Chain compatibility, integration route, and screening requirements |
Network feed access should not be assumed to include Forta Risk or Forta Firewall. Specify the required offering in the order scope.
How Forta Licensing and Access Work
Forta Network documentation distinguishes a General Plan from Premium Feeds. The General Plan covers non-premium bots; Premium Feeds have separate subscriptions priced by their owners.
For Network subscriptions, documented access methods include querying intelligence through the GraphQL API or subscribing to bot notifications. The selected subscription must cover the bot or feed you intend to use.
Forta Risk and Forta Firewall require separate scoping. Risk focuses on asset dependencies and exposure, while Firewall screens transactions at the chain’s sequencer. Their onboarding should follow the requirements of the selected service.
If your team is planning how to investigate alerts and coordinate responses, our guide to the difference between SOAR and SIEM explains those broader security operations roles. Confirm any Forta integration separately.
Forta Subscription and Ordering Guide
Use the exact plan, feed, or service name when preparing an order. A generic request for “Forta License” does not establish the coverage required.
Example: Threat Intelligence for a Web3 Application
Suppose a team needs protocol-specific monitoring and intelligence from a premium scam-detection feed. The starting scope should identify:
- The relevant protocol-monitoring bots and their subscription coverage.
- The exact premium feed required.
- The application’s blockchain and integration requirements.
- The notification destinations and staff responsible for responding.
Confirm each feed’s availability and coverage before purchasing. Receiving an alert does not, by itself, establish an automated blocking workflow.
Prepare These Details Before Ordering
Provide the intended use case, blockchain networks, required feeds or enterprise service, integration method, and existing subscriptions. For enterprise deployments, document implementation ownership and acceptance criteria.
Use the confirmed service description as the ordering reference; do not substitute an unverified SKU.
Forta License Pricing
Forta pricing depends on the selected offering. The published Network subscription guide lists the General Plan at 250 FORT per month, with Premium Feeds priced separately in FORT or USDC. This is a documentation reference checked in October 2026; verify the live plan price before payment. It is not a quotation for Forta Risk or Forta Firewall.
When comparing proposals, confirm the exact service or feed, payment currency, subscription duration, renewal conditions, transaction charges, and implementation or support responsibilities. A token-denominated fee should not be presented as a fixed US-dollar price.
For purchases through GoLicense, follow our How to Buy guide and confirm the product-specific availability and commercial terms in your quotation.
Buying, Access and Activation
1. Confirm the Service Scope
Identify the plan, feed, or enterprise offering and document the required coverage. Agree on commercial terms, delivery or onboarding arrangements, and customer responsibilities before approving the purchase.
2. Establish the Access Owner
Determine which organizational account or wallet will control access. Keep ownership with the organization and assign responsibility for administration and renewal. Never share wallet recovery phrases or private keys.
3. Complete the Applicable Subscription or Onboarding
For documented Network subscriptions, purchases can be made through the Forta App or the applicable plan smart contracts. Enterprise services should follow their agreed onboarding process. For a GoLicense order, confirm how the selected service will be supplied before payment.
4. Validate the Result
For feed access, verify that the intended subscription is active and the required intelligence can be retrieved or delivered. For enterprise deployments, validate the agreed integration and operational acceptance criteria.
Before You Order: Prerequisites and Common Mistakes
Pre-Order Checklist
- Identify the exact offering and intended use.
- Confirm blockchain and feed coverage.
- Check existing access before purchasing again.
- Assign an account or wallet administrator.
- Review payment and renewal requirements.
- Define integration and support responsibilities.
Common Buying and Activation Issues
Choosing a plan without checking feed coverage: Confirm that the required bot belongs to the purchased plan.
Confusing monitoring with prevention: Threat notifications and pre-execution transaction screening are different capabilities.
Overlooking renewal requirements: Network documentation describes 30-day subscriptions and renewal failures when sufficient funds or approvals are unavailable.
Treating FORT ownership as service access: Confirm the subscription or service entitlement separately from holding tokens.
