Common endpoints
The exact price for each endpoint is shown at the top of its page in the API reference.
Minimum charge
Every successful request costs at least 15 credits ($0.00015), even when it returns no data, because we still have to query upstream.Free starter credits
New accounts get free credits to try the API. Bonus and promotional credits have an expiry date, shown on your dashboard.Keeping costs down
- Use the largest page size. Followers, followings and follower IDs get cheaper per user when a page returns more results.
- Batch profile lookups. Looking up 100 or more users with
batch_info_by_idscosts 1 credit each instead of 18. - Narrow your searches. Add
since_time:/until_time:to advanced search queries so you don’t page through results you’ve already seen. - Stop on
402. A script that keeps retrying after its credits run out just wastes time. See Errors.
