FAQ

Do I need a paid plan to use the APIs?

All accounts include paper‑trading API access. Live trading and advanced data feeds require Standard or Professional plans depending on your market access.

Is there a sandbox?

Yes. The paper environment mirrors production behavior including order validation and fills, so you can test end‑to‑end safely.

Do you support webhooks?

Yes. Receive signed callbacks for order updates, fills, risk events, and strategy signals. Retries and replay protection are built‑in.

How are rate limits enforced?

Per‑key and per‑IP limits apply, with burst buckets for short spikes. Enterprise plans include custom ceilings and dedicated throughput.
