Solscan Rate Limits

Solscan Public API enforces a fair-use limit (typically 10 rps per IP). Pro API tiers gate per rate-per-second AND per-month compute units (CU). Hobby plan is approximately 30 rps; higher plans up to 100+ rps. Throttled responses return HTTP 429.

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

It captures 5 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests_per_second and cu_per_month.

An exhausted limit returns HTTP 429.

This profile was written by API Evangelist and has not been verified against a page the provider published; treat every limit as unconfirmed until a dated transcription replaces it.

The profile also includes 1 backoff/retry policy defined and response codes documented for throttled.

Tagged areas include Solana, Explorer, and Rate Limiting.
