# Limits on API Requests

In order to provide fast response times to all our customers, we may limit excessive requests made to the Ninjapay API. The limits are specific to the type of operation and allow for a certain number of requests to be made within a given time period.

The following API request limits are in effect and subject to change:

| Operation                | Endpoint                      | Limit                       | Timeout  |
| ------------------------ | ----------------------------- | --------------------------- | -------- |
| Payment request          | /v1/receive                   | 150 requests / 1 minute     | 1 minute |
| Payment quote generation | /v1/invoices/:invoiceId/quote | 150 requests / 1 minute     | 1 minute |
| All others               | All others                    | 1,000 requests / 10 minutes | 1 hour   |
