Each API on the marketplace has its own per-listing quota and burst settings configured by its publisher; Enterprise Hub customers configure gateway throttling per their own deployment.

Policies

Per-listing Configuration
On the public marketplace each API publisher sets their own quotas, burst, and overage behavior; consumers see those values on the API's pricing tab on rapidapi.com.
Enterprise Self-service
Enterprise Hub customers control gateway throttling and quota tiers via their own admin console; there is no shared platform-wide limit to publish.
