Idnow Rate Limits

IDnow does not publish specific public rate-limit values for its gateway API. Usage is governed by the company's contract and configured environment rather than a published per-account quota. Verification throughput on the VideoIdent product is additionally bounded by the availability of human Ident Specialists. Specific per-endpoint limits are not reconciled in this artifact.

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

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

Tagged areas include Identity Verification, KYC, Identity Proofing, AML, and eSign.
