While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Since becoming part of Nokia, they've been like professional extortionists. A 25% fee? What the heck is that? Are they short on cash or affected by the war? Previously 20% was enough, but what the h... See more

Phenomenal / place to improve

Though I would recommend this to all my friends. There needs to be better filtering and exporting around the transaction side, there currently isn't any way to get an accurate payout (only partially accurate) from the list considering the number of pending transactions that will never complete because users canceled the credit card or something.

Don't reinvent the API wheel but leverage Rapid API instead!

This is a great service for leveraging prebuilt api's for your applications. There is no need to reinvent the wheel. Through Rapid API, you can take advantage of a market place of API's that connect to a breath of platforms. The billing and usage calculation is very easy to understand and use. There is no need to worry about being throttled by certain platforms when trying to access their data when using Rapid API since they have a great infrastructure to prevent that from happening. There customer service is also very responsive. We have had a great experience with Rapid API so far and look forward to using them for more API's in the future.

Nobody works in support

Nobody works in support, The quota doesn't work. Today I have a client that realizes more than 20000 requests by day, whereas the subscription allows 25000 queries by month. RapidAPI earns 5% by subscription and nobody answers the emails.

Great company that offers free and premium APIs that are tested and work. Customer service is responsive. Would recommend since none other marketplace offers what RapidAPI offers in 2020.

I both write APIs and use APIs on here

I both write APIs and use APIs on here, though I more so manage the APIs I've written.
Writing APIs: They provide an excellent UI for testing and providing information about your API as well as solid analytics. The analytic views are buggy and the payment method set up is only allowing paypal which means not only does rapidapi take a cut, but paypal takes a cut as well. The payments come out super late. There is almost no protection from fraudulent users, I have one using free accounts (40 different ones) who has gone way over and will be charged at the end of the month, but there is nothing I can do to limit his ability to do this except outright block him or cancel his card (and thus never get paid). Overall, it is way worth setting up with their platform instead of building your own infrastructure.

As a user: I have not had any issues with incorrect api call counts. I've also had good experience with seeing what data i sent to their API.
