Back Market Rate Limits

Back Market publishes two layers of throttling for its seller API: a platform-wide edge limit enforced by Cloudflare on the seller endpoints, and per-endpoint limits documented in the OpenAPI operation descriptions for the Care (after-sales) surface. A separate data limitation caps how many SKU lines may be submitted per hour on the listing-update endpoints. All throttling surfaces as HTTP 429 with the ErrorResponseV1 envelope.

Back Market Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Back Market on the APIs.io network, in the API Commons Rate Limits shape.

It captures 13 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests_per_10_seconds, requests_per_minute, and requests_per_day.

Limit state is signalled in the request_id, retry_after, and rate_limit_headers response headers, and an exhausted limit returns HTTP 429.

The profile also includes response codes documented for throttled and blocked_by_waf.

Tagged areas include Rate Limiting, Marketplace, and E-Commerce.
