Question
What are your rate limits?
Answer
WebSockets Market & Execution Data
WebSockets market and execution data services have a rate limit of average five subscription requests per IP per second during a two-second window, or average of three subscription requests per second during a five-minute window.
REST APIs
Paxos sets rate limits per endpoint and IP address. If you hit a rate limit on a specific endpoint, you will receive a 429 response status code. All requests from the offending IP are then throttled for five minutes.
