Rate limits and quotas

Requests per second, emails per month, and what happens at each limit.

Requests per second#

Each account, across all its keys, can make 2 (Free), 10 (Pro) or 25 (Scale) requests a second. Authenticated responses carry ratelimit-limit, ratelimit-remaining and ratelimit-reset (seconds). Over the limit you get 429 rate_limit_exceeded with retry-after: 1.

Email quotas#

  • Each recipient counts as one email (to, cc and bcc, after suppressed addresses are removed).
  • Monthly quotas: 3,000, 50,000 or 100,000. They reset on the 1st of the month at midnight UTC.
  • The Free plan also allows 100 emails a day, resetting at midnight UTC.
  • Cancelled emails and permanent failures are given back.
  • We email you once at 80% and once at 100% of your monthly quota. Over it, sends return 429 with monthly_quota_exceeded or daily_quota_exceeded. Nothing is billed extra.
