Rate limiting
Does PayMongo limit my requests?
Rate Limiting
A rate limit is the number of API calls an app or user can make within a time period. We enforce rate limiting as follows:
Rate Limit Rule
- If the request rate exceeds 100 requests per second (6000 per minute), the request will be blocked.
- The block is automatically lifted within the next minute once the request rate returns to normal.
Response
- Status Code: 429
- Response Body:
Too many requests, please try again later.
Ensure your integration handles 429 Too Many Requests responses by implementing exponential backoff or retry logic with appropriate delays.
