Credits - Perceptlayer

A successful call costs the credits shown on its endpoint: one for nearly all of them. Calls that fail cost nothing, whatever the reason: invalid parameters, no data for the query, rate limits or a source outage. Every response says what it cost in X-Credits-Used and what’s left in X-Credits-Remaining.

Free credits

New accounts get 1,000 free credits once they verify their email, topped back up each month until the first purchase. The free rate is 1 request a second (60 a minute).

Credit packs

Packs are prepaid, with no subscription. Credits from packs last 12 months from purchase. Credits bought at a faster rate are spent first, then the oldest.
