How the Linkup API credits system works
When you first sign up, your account is automatically credited with 1000 credits. Each time you make a successful request to our Search endpoint, credits are subtracted from your account.
The amount of credit deducted per call depends on the depth parameter of your request:
Call Type | Cost in credits |
---|---|
Standard | 1 credit |
Deep | 10 credits |
If you run out of credit, the API will respond with a 429 HTTP error.
Important note: No credit is subtracted when an error occurs, whether it is because of a missing parameter, an internal server error, but also when we were not able to find anything relevant to your query.
You can view your current consumption by visiting the Linkup App. If you need more credits, you can subscribe to a premium plan.
