Tap Payments Rate Limits
Tap Payments does not publish fixed numeric rate limits for its REST API in the public developer reference. As a card-present/card-not-present payment gateway, throughput is governed operationally - by acquirer and scheme limits, fraud and velocity controls, and per-merchant risk configuration - rather than by a published per-minute request cap. Clients should treat the API as rate-limited in principle, handle HTTP 429 responses with exponential backoff, and rely on idempotency/reference fields to avoid duplicate charges on retry.
Tap Payments Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Tap Payments on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Rate Limits specification.
It captures 2 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests and transactions.
The profile also includes 2 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled.
Tagged areas include Payments, Fintech, Payment Gateway, MENA, and Rate Limiting.
