Tamara · Rate Limits

Tamara Rate Limits

Tamara does not publish a per-merchant request-per-minute/quota table in its public documentation. The merchant integration is structured around customer-driven checkout events and merchant-driven order operations (authorise/capture/cancel/refund), so most traffic is naturally bounded by retail volume.

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

It captures 3 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests.

The profile also includes 3 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled.

Tagged areas include Fintech, BNPL, Payments, Rate Limiting, and Throttling.

Limits

Default Merchant API merchant
requests
not publicly documented
Tamara's docs do not publish a numeric per-second/per-minute quota; traffic is bounded by retail purchase volume.
Sandbox merchant
requests
sandbox shared environment
Sandbox at api-sandbox.tamara.co is shared infrastructure intended for integration testing, not load testing.
Channel Partner API channel_partner
requests
not publicly documented
Numeric quotas for partner-api.tamara.co are negotiated as part of the channel partner agreement.

Policies

Idempotency
Re-issuing a `POST /orders/{order_id}/authorise` after a non-2xx response is unsafe — Tamara instructs merchants to verify order status via Get Order Details before retrying, and to not retry on Expired or Declined.
Webhook Retries
Tamara webhooks expect a 2xx response from the merchant endpoint quickly; non-2xx will be retried.
Backoff
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter on 429 and 5xx responses.
