Amberflo Rate Limits

Amberflo does not publish per-second rate limits on its public site. The Metering API is designed for high-throughput event ingestion and supports batch ingestion to amortize request count. Plan-level event volumes (10K Startups, 500K Growth) act as monthly quotas rather than per-second throttles. Treat 429 / 503 responses as throttle signals and apply exponential backoff.

Plan-level monthly quota; overage moves the customer above the included pool.

Policies

Batch ingestion
Use the bulk meter-events endpoint to amortize request count over many records and reduce request-rate pressure.
Exponential backoff
Retry 429 and 503 responses with exponential backoff and jitter; respect Retry-After when present.
Idempotency
Each meter event should carry a unique transactionId to allow safe retries without double-counting.
Plan-level quotas
Monthly event and billing-volume pools are quotas tied to the subscription plan; exceeding triggers overage line items rather than throttling.
