Pokemon Tcg Plans Pricing
The Pokémon TCG API is completely free - there is no paid tier. Access differs only by rate limit. Anonymous requests (no API key) are limited to 1,000 requests/day with a maximum of 30 requests/minute. Signing up for a free API key at the Pokémon TCG Developer Portal (dev.pokemontcg.io) and sending it in the X-Api-Key header raises the default limit to 20,000 requests/day, and higher limits can be arranged by contacting the maintainer via Discord or email. The project is a community effort by Andrew Backes, sustained by voluntary Patreon and Ko-fi donations rather than by charging for access.
Pokemon Tcg Plans Pricing is the machine-readable pricing-plan profile for Pokémon TCG API on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Plans specification.
It defines 3 plans, covering free tiers, with named plans including Anonymous (No API Key), Free API Key, Elevated Limits (By Request).
