Wompi Rate Limits

Wompi does not publish explicit numeric API rate limits in its public developer documentation. As a bank-operated payment gateway it applies fraud/risk controls and may throttle abusive traffic; standard HTTP 429 and 4xx/5xx handling with exponential backoff is advised. Per-account limits, if any, are governed by the merchant's commercial agreement with Wompi / Grupo Bancolombia and are not documented as fixed public values.

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

It captures 1 rate-limit definition, measuring requests.

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

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

Policies

Backoff Strategy
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter and honor Retry-After on 429/5xx.
Prefer Webhooks Over Polling
Use Eventos (webhooks) for transaction status changes rather than tight polling loops on GET /v1/transactions/{id}.
