Our API uses a tiered pricing model with both subscription fees and usage-based charges. Subscription fees provide access to different feature tiers, while usage charges are based on the number and type of API requests.

Billing occurs monthly, with the billing cycle starting on your subscription anniversary date. Subscription fees are charged at the beginning of each cycle, while usage charges are billed at the end of each cycle.
