# API Rate Limit

> API Rate limit per minute

> Mayar API rate limits and best practices for handling them.

Mayar API has rate limits to ensure fair usage and maintain performance. The limits are as follows:

* **50 requests per minute per user credential (API Key).**

Rate limiting is applied based on your authenticated user account, not by IP address. All requests made with the same API Key share the same rate limit quota.

If you exceed the rate limit, you will receive a **429 Too Many Requests** response. The response will include a **Retry-After** header indicating how long you should wait before making another request.

Unauthenticated requests (without a Bearer token) are subject to a separate, stricter limit.
