Thanks a lot @somada141! Apologies for any confusion. Let me clarify: the Free tier covers the first 250k API requests made in a single month. If the number of requests in a month goes beyond the threshold, the API will start returning Forbidden errors. The counter gets reset at the first of each month. If your service gets more than 250k hits a month, then you will be a perfect match for our "Pro" tier. This pricing structure, puts us on a league of our own, offering to the developers a huge package of free API calls every single month. Nobody else does it!

Hm a 403 when one runs out of credit can be misleading as one would expect that for an authorization error. You may want to consider the `402 Payment Required` status code instead which seems to be used by some big players [0]. Best of luck with your launch!

  I confirm we updated the API to return a 402 error message when the user reached the limit of the her pricing tier. Thanks again for this suggestion.
