Rate Limits (Trader API Credits)

Overview

All rate limits are subject to change and enforced by your bloXroute account tier.

A credit-based rate limit system is used to limit spamming and usage, to provide the best service to our paid customers.

How is credit consumption calculated?

Every API call will consume Trader API Credits.

• Users' credit resets every 60 seconds. The request submitted at 00:01:23.456 counts towards the 00:01:00 minute limit. Once the 00:02:00 minute starts, the count will reset to zero again.

• The cost for a single transaction submission is 1 credit.

• Requests fail with a status 429 when rate limits are violated.

• Each user will have assigned credits based on the bloXroute account tier. You can find how much credit you will be assigned using the table below.

Account Bundle	Credit every 60sec
Introductory	60
Enterprise	60 + 600
Enterprise-Elite	60 + 3000
Ultra	60 + 9900
Build Your Own	60 + 150 * X ($250/month * X)
