# Rate limits

What happens when you send many requests in a short time.

You can send up to **300 requests per minute** at full speed. Above that, the API doesn't reject your requests. It slows them down instead: each extra request waits a little longer, up to 5 seconds, until the minute resets.

There are no rate limit headers in the response and you won't receive a `429` status, so a slower response is the sign that you are over the limit.

## Tips

- Use `limit` and `offset` to read lists in pages rather than asking for everything at once.
- Send requests one after another, instead of many at the same moment.
- Save data you read often, instead of requesting it again each time.
