FAQs

Frequently asked questions.

Can I use Microlink for free?

Absolutely. We have a forever free endpoint you can use. It’s the best way to start using the service.
The free plan has limits to prevent abuse: burst rate, concurrency, and a daily quota.
It should be enough for small projects or low-volume usage.

What’s the difference between the free and paid plans?

The paid plan is built for scale, with better performance and unlocked features such as headers, ttl or proxy.
It comes with an associated API key and configurable quota. You only pay for what you need.

What if I don’t know how much API quota I need?

No problem, just start with the smallest pro plan, and at the moment you need more, you can upgrade your plan.

How do I get an API key?

After your payment, we send you the API key associated with the email you signed up with.
The API key needs to be attached to all your requests:

Can Microlink handle my traffic?

Yes. The platform is built for production workloads and the bursty traffic agents generate: retries, loops, and parallel fan-outs. We’ve supported enterprise deployments processing up to 188 million requests per month, with sustained daily traffic of more than 6 million requests.
No need to warn us before a spike or throttle on your side; your quota is the only limit.

What’s your SLA level?

Our SLA commitment is 99.9% uptime (three nines). You can see the live status of the service.

How do I know my plan usage?

We notify you automatically when you reach 80% or more of your usage plan, offering to upgrade your plan to one more suitable based on your plan usage.

What if I want to change my plan?

You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel your plan at any time with no further obligation from
dashboard.microlink.io
.

How is the payment processed?

We use Stripe to process your payment, the same payment provider behind companies like Amazon, Shopify, and Zoom. We never see your credit card information.

Can I update my card details?

Yes, send an email to
hello@microlink.io
 requesting the change. You will receive a link where you'll be able to securely update your details.

Can I cancel my subscription?

Yes, at any time from
dashboard.microlink.io
, no questions asked.
