# Rate Limiting

Each API plan comes with a requests limiter. Every API call you make costs a request

Tier Limits Price Auth Permissions
ANONYMOUS 16 req/60s FREE --- GET
BASIC 20 req/60s FREE JWT GET
DEV 24 req/60s --- JWT GET

Authentication
../authentication/

When you are on the ANONYMOUS tier and your quota is used up, the API will respond with the error code 429 Too Many Requests and no more calls can be made until your quota resets.

# Controlling usage

You have complete control over your quota by looking at the the API response headers that appear with every response. These response headers are:

# Remaining requests

HTTP/1.1 200
X-Rate-Limit-Remaining: 11
{
  "...": "..."
}

# Rejected request

HTTP/1.1 429
X-Rate-Limit-Retry-After-Seconds: 583
{
  "code": 429,
  "status": "Too Many Requests",
  "method": "GET",
  "cause": "You have exhausted your API request quota"
}
