What is the request limit for Polygon’s RESTful APIs?
Our free tier subscriptions come with a limit of 5 API requests per minute. Paying customers have access to unlimited API requests.
While we do not have a specific rate limit, we do monitor usage to ensure that no single user affects the quality of service for others. To avoid any throttling issues, we recommend staying under 100 requests per second.
