# Rate Limits

Your API requests are subject to default rate limits to ensure system stability.

## Request Rate Limits

* `/address/screen`, `/addresses/screen`, `/transaction/screen`, and `/transactions/screen` endpoints: 50 calls per minute per key
* All other endpoints: 10 calls per second per key

## Screening Volume Limits

In addition to request rate limits, screening endpoints share a combined limit of **120 screenings per minute** per key. Each address or transaction included in a request counts as one screening — for example, a single `/addresses/screen` call with 10 addresses consumes 10 screenings from this quota.

## Requesting a Limit Increase

If your project requires higher limits, please contact our support team. Approval is at our discretion, and additional details about your use case may be required.
