Donorbox Rate Limits

Donorbox does not publish a numeric per-minute or per-day request-rate limit in its official API README or wiki. The only documented throughput control is result-set size: all list endpoints (Campaigns, Donations, Plans, Donors, Events, Tickets, Purchases) paginate via `page` and `per_page` query parameters, with a default page size of 50 records and a hard maximum of 100 (any larger value silently falls back to the default). Third-party trackers report a 60-requests-per-minute limit, but this is not confirmed in Donorbox's own documentation and is recorded here only as an unverified secondary claim.

Donorbox Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Donorbox on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Rate Limits specification.

It captures 2 rate-limit definitions, measuring records and requests.

The profile also includes 2 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled.

Tagged areas include Nonprofit, Fundraising, Donations, Rate Limiting, and Pagination.

records

Applies to Campaigns, Donations, Plans, Donors, Events, Tickets, and Purchases via the per_page parameter; values above 100 fall back to the default of 50.
Request Rate account
requests
not published by Donorbox (unconfirmed third-party reports cite ~60/minute)
No numeric per-minute/per-hour/per-day limit is documented in the official README or wiki as of the review date.

Policies

Read-Only API
All documented endpoints are GET only; there is no write throughput to manage because donations/donors/plans cannot be created or modified via the API.
Prefer Webhooks Over Polling
Donorbox recommends configuring custom webhooks (Pro/Premium add-on) instead of polling list endpoints on a schedule, reducing the need to reason about rate limits at all.
