Rate Limits

API requests are rate limited based on your plan. Rate limit headers are included in all API responses.

Limits by Plan

Business Plan500 requests/day, 200 verifications/month

Rate Limit Headers

Every API response includes headers so you can track your current usage:

X-RateLimit-Limit: 100
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 87
X-RateLimit-Reset: 1706140800
HeaderDescription
X-RateLimit-LimitMaximum requests allowed per day
X-RateLimit-RemainingRemaining requests in the current window
X-RateLimit-ResetUnix timestamp when the limit resets

Exceeding the Limit

When you exceed your rate limit, the API returns a 429 Too Many Requests status code.

  • Wait until the reset time indicated by the X-RateLimit-Reset header
  • Implement exponential backoff for retry logic
  • Consider upgrading to a higher plan if you consistently hit limits
