Why do we have rate limits?​

Rate limiting is used by the API to prevent abuse and ensure a reliable experience for all consumers.

What are the rate limits for the 0x APIs?​

The current limit for the Free Tier of our APIs is approximately 5 Requests Per Second (RPS). If you need higher rate limits, contact us on our pricing page to learn about our custom plans.

How are rates calculated?​

The following is shared to help your team to maximize your app setup. The example below uses the 5 RPS Free Tier limit; however, the same logic applies to all tiers.

  • The 5 RPS is 5 calls across our endpoints
  • The 5 RPS is per fixed 1 second window; in other words, the API has fixed 1 second windows and will allow 5 calls any where within that 1 second window
  • You can view your current usage and limits on the 0x API Dashboard.
