# `eth_accounts`

Returns a list of addresses owned by the client. This method uses [80 credits](/services/get-started/pricing/) from your daily balance.

## Parameters[​](#parameters "Direct link to Parameters")

None

## Returns[​](#returns "Direct link to Returns")

An array of hexadecimals as strings representing the addresses owned by the client.

Infura will not return any accounts

While this JSON-RPC method is supported by Infura, it will _not_ return any accounts as Infura does not support "unlocking" accounts. Instead, users should send pre-signed raw transactions using `eth_sendRawTransaction`.

## Example[​](#example "Direct link to Example")

Replace `<YOUR-API-KEY>` with an API key from your [Infura dashboard](https://app.infura.io/).
