Green Dot Rate Limits

Green Dot does not publish rate-limit documentation for its banking-as-a-service / Arc API on its public website. Limits and SLAs for partner traffic are presumed to be defined in the program agreement, scoped per partner / BIN. Numeric values below are conservative placeholders pending direct documentation from Green Dot.

Numeric limits are presumed to be set per partner program. Values not publicly documented.

Policies

Backoff Strategy
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter on 429 / 503 and respect Retry-After when present.
Contractual scoping
Rate limits are presumed enforced at the partner / program level rather than via a public per-tier policy.
PCI / regulatory caution
Card-issuing and movement-of-money endpoints typically have lower hard limits and stricter abuse / fraud monitoring than read-only endpoints.
