How are overages charged?

Each API plan includes a number of requests. Any requests you make beyond the plan limit (overage requests) will be billed as an additional charge and added to the next month's invoice. We’ll notify you when you're approaching your plan limit and when you reach it. You can disable being billed for any overages via the account dashboard, and instead, opt for your API calls to get rate-limited as you hit the plan limit.

You can manage overages in the dashboard here: https://ipinfo.io/dashboard/billing

You’ll receive an email notification about your plan when 80% of the request volume has been consumed. Your monthly quota of requests renews on the first day of every month rather than the day you pay for your plan. In other words, regardless of your billing cycle, requests are counted from the first day of the month until the last day of the month.

Example Overage Calculations

Below are two sample scenarios to illustrate how overage charges are applied.


IPinfo Core

  • Overage: 3,501 requests in June
  • Rate: $0.000539 per request (pay-as-you-go)
  • Calculation: 3.501 × $0.54 = $1.89
  • Invoice: Your July invoice will show an additional $1.89 in overage charges.

Basic (legacy)

  • Overage: 3,501 requests in June
  • Rate: $20 per 10,000 requests (billed in whole blocks)
  • Calculation: 1 block × $20 = $20
  • Invoice: Your December invoice will show an additional $20 in overage charges.
