Top API providers?

[MadGamer]

Does anyone have an idea about which is the best service when it comes for providing API's to help retrieve info such as balance, transactions, etc?

I was thinking about using Blocktrail's one for BTC and Etherplorer for ETH but I'm not sure whether they're better alternatives or not.

https://etherscan.io/apis#accounts is a great API for ETH. https://github.com/EverexIO/Ethplorer/wiki/Ethplorer-API more information. The best API for ETH here https://bloxy.info/api_methods
I use all three.

Bloxy seems the best but apparently, you'll have to make a request to have access. Is it that easy to get If let's say I'm building something for myself only? also, are there any fees?

Access after registration e-mail. There is a paid subscription option, but if I create for myself only, there will be enough free access.

On this site https://www.programmableweb.com/ there is a complete catalog of all API-services.

What about Blockchain.info? Do you want API's accessed by just the endpoints or created for a specific programming language? To be honest, most of the third party API's come with restrictions, if you're looking to develop a commercial application, you should use the JSON RPC and that gives you more control over the API's.
