# YieldMeister Rates API — Pricing

> A daily-refreshed, affiliate-free JSON API of European savings, term-deposit, T-bill, bond and benchmark rates — built for developers and B2B integrations.

All plans share the same independent, affiliate-free dataset. Pricing is flat per plan — not per seat. Quotas are monthly API-call counts; they reset on the 1st of each calendar month.

## Overage and limits

- Monthly quota is enforced: requests past the cap return HTTP 429.
- No automatic overage billing — the request is simply rejected.
- Upgrading takes effect immediately; the new quota applies from that point.
- The rate-history endpoint (`/api/v1/rates/{id}/history`) is unavailable on the Free plan and returns HTTP 402.

---

## Billing

- **Interval:** Monthly. No annual plan is published. TODO: confirm whether an annual discount exists in Stripe.
- **Trial:** None — the Free plan is permanent and covers evaluation without a card.
- **Accepted payment:** Card via Stripe. Manage or cancel at https://yieldmeister.com/account/billing (Stripe Customer Portal).
- **VAT:** Collected per EU regulations where applicable.

## FAQ

**What counts as one API request?**
One HTTP call to any `/api/v1/*` endpoint — `/api/v1/rates`, `/api/v1/rates/{id}`, `/api/v1/rates/{id}/history`, or `/api/v1/markets`. Fetching web pages does not count.

**Is this per-seat or per-workspace?**
Flat per API key. One subscription = one API key = one monthly quota. Multiple developers can share a key; every call counts against the same total.

**What is free and what requires a paid plan?**
Current-rate endpoints (`/api/v1/rates`, `/api/v1/rates/{id}`, `/api/v1/markets`) are open to all plans including unauthenticated callers. The rate-history endpoint (`/api/v1/rates/{id}/history`) requires Starter or Pro.

**Is there a free trial?**
No separate trial period. The Free plan is permanent and does not require a card — use it to evaluate before upgrading.

**Can I get a refund?**
TODO: confirm — refund policy is not published on the public pricing page.

**Do the rates reflect affiliate relationships?**
No. Data is ranked strictly by rate. No paid placement, no affiliate commissions, no sponsored positions. This is the product's defining constraint and applies to every plan equally.

**I need more than Pro — webhooks, bulk export, a custom SLA.**

## Source of truth

Prices are set in Stripe. The Stripe price IDs are:
- Starter: `price_1Tiqzf5fPmB8PMCupRe9ItpM`
- Pro: `price_1Tir055fPmB8PMCuCys8r1Fq`

If this file and the rendered page at https://yieldmeister.com/pricing ever disagree, Stripe is canonical for the billed amount.
