API Limitations [KC8] [MM9] [KC10] [MM11] 

(i) General API Usage

Open Loyalty may limit access to its APIs to ensure optimal performance and reliability. Any API access granted might be subject to usage guidelines.

(ii) Integration API

(iii) Integration APIs are primarily for near real-time data syncing and content display, with a focus on delivering high performance and fast response times. Open Loyalty supports up to 1,500 concurrent API calls for these purposes to maintain smooth operations.

(iv) Management API

(v) Management APIs are intended for administrative functions, such as loyalty program management and back-office operations. While they can also be used for integrations, they're not designed for high-concurrency or near real-time performance. Open Loyalty doesn’t offer specific guarantees for concurrent API calls, but we recommend using them in lower-traffic scenarios where real-time performance isn’t essential.

(vi) API Classification

(vii) Open Loyalty may occasionally update the classification of Integration and Management APIs to better suit customer needs. Any changes will be reflected in Open Loyalty’s documentation at apidocs.openloyalty.io, so Open Loyalty encourages Customers to check for updates regularly.

(viii) Authentication API Limits

(ix) The following Authentication API endpoints are capped at 30 requests per minute (RPM) individually to ensure service stability:

Any complaints (excluding copyright infringement claims) regarding violations of this Fair Usage Policy should be directed to Communication Channel. Where possible, include details that would assist Open Loyalty in investigating and resolving such complaints.

VI. MONITORING AND AUDITING

Open Loyalty reserves the right to monitor and audit the use of the Platform to ensure compliance with this Fair Usage Policy. Any detected violations may be addressed as outlined in the Enforcement section.
