P2P.org supports 40+ proof-of-stake networks and states seven years with zero slashing, while Figment reports 1,500+ institutional clients across 30+ protocols. These are validator operators for businesses. None of the six publishes a flat fee on the pages we checked, so ask each for its commission in writing.

Quick answer

Shortlist Figment or P2P.org for the widest network coverage with non-custodial staking. Add Kiln for white-label ETH staking, Everstake for its certification list, and Blockdaemon if you also need MPC custody and RPC from one vendor.

How we rank staking providers

  1. 01Networks: how many proof-of-stake networks the provider says it supports.
  2. 02Custody model: whether assets stay under the client's keys.
  3. 03Certifications: SOC 2 and ISO certifications the provider lists.
  4. 04Track record: founding year and incidents the provider discloses itself.
  5. 05Fees: published commission, if any.

No project paid to be listed or ranked. Full rules: methodology.

How to choose

Ask for the commission in writing

None of the six posts a flat fee on the pages we checked. P2P.org says it takes a commission from rewards; get the rate per network.

Check the certification date

Kiln renewed SOC 2 Type II in 2026; ask any provider for its latest report, not just the badge.

Read the incident notices

Kiln published a notice on a September 2025 validator exit issue. A provider that discloses incidents on its own site is easier to vet.

Who should skip all of these

  • Retail stakers looking for an app: use a liquid staking protocol or an exchange instead.
  • Anyone who wants a guaranteed yield: rates shown are network reward rates and change.

Which one fits you?

Bottom line

Pick on networks and custody model first, then get the commission in writing: none of the six publishes it.

Figment and P2P.org cover the most networks; Kiln fits white-label ETH.
