# Rate Limits

Rate limiting per API key

Rate limits are enforced per API key.

## Limits

| Plan        | Requests per Second  |
| ----------- | -------------------- |
| Beta (Free) | 5                    |
| Custom      | Set for your account |

Bolt is configured around your setup — target TPS and burst, regions, transports, Jito routing, dedicated capacity. Open a ticket in Discord `#support` or DM the team to get set up.

## Response Headers

Every response includes rate limit information:

```
X-RateLimit-Limit: 20
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 19
```

| Header                  | Description                          |
| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| `X-RateLimit-Limit`     | Total requests allowed per second    |
| `X-RateLimit-Remaining` | Remaining requests in current window |
| `X-Region`              | Region that processed the request    |

## When Rate Limited

You'll receive error code `-32005` (JSON-RPC) or HTTP `429` (binary). The request is rejected with no penalty. Wait briefly and retry.
