Rate Limits

Learn about API rate limits and how to work with them. The Kredete API includes safeguards against bursts of incoming traffic to ensure stability. If you send too many requests in quick succession, you may receive error responses with status code 429.

API Limiters

Kredete uses several limiters, including:

  • Rate limiter: Restricts the number of API requests per second.

Treat these limits as maximums, and avoid generating unnecessary load. Limits may be reduced to prevent abuse. For advice on handling 429 errors. If you see a rising number of rate-limited requests, contact [email protected].

You can request a limit increase for high-traffic applications by contacting Kredete Support. For large increases, contact Kredete at least 6 weeks in advance.


Rate Limiter

The basic rate limiter restricts API requests as follows:

  • Prod: 100 requests per minute.
  • Sandbox: 50 requests per minute.
