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.
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.

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.
