API Essentials
Credits
Understanding credit usage and limits
Our API uses a credit-based system to manage usage. Different operations consume different amounts of credits.
Credit Costs
Operation | Credits |
---|---|
Email Enrichment | 1 credit |
Phone Enrichment | 10 credits |
Daily Limits
We enforce a daily scraping limit of 2,500 credits per account. This helps ensure:
- Stable and reliable service for all users
- Fair resource allocation
- Account protection against abuse
Best Practices
-
Monitor Usage
- Track your daily credit consumption
- Set up alerts before reaching limits
- Plan batch operations around daily limits
-
Optimize Operations
- Use bulk endpoints for better efficiency
- Prioritize essential enrichments
- Cache results when possible to avoid duplicate requests
-
Plan Ahead
- Estimate credit needs based on operation types
- Consider upgrading your plan for higher limits
- Space out large operations across multiple days
