Can I use ZIPAPI commercially in my app?

Yes. ZIPAPI is built to scale and optimized for commercial use. Flexible pricing makes it ideal for startups, or enterprise systems.

Does ZIPAPI have limited-time price promotions?

No. We don’t run artificial sales, discounts, or temporary price drops.

Our pricing reflects the real value and continuous improvement of our API. Customers joining today should pay the same fair price as early adopters – no penalties or pressure tactics.

The only exception is a permanent 25% discount on annual subscriptions, as a reward for long-term commitment.

Will prices ever increase?

Possibly – in case of inflation or rising infrastructure costs.
But: Existing customers will always keep their original pricing, as long as their subscription remains active.

What does “simultaneous requests” mean?

“Simultaneous requests” refers to parallel API calls that are processed at the same time - not sequentially, but truly overlapping in execution.

Example: If a second request is made while the first is still being processed, both are considered simultaneous.
If your plan allows only 1 simultaneous request, the second one will be rejected with status code 429 - "Simultaneous request limit for current plan exceeded."

  • The limitation applies per user account, not per API key.
  • Speed of processing doesn’t matter - only the concurrent overlap does.

If your systems or users send multiple parallel API calls, we recommend a plan with a higher limit for simultaneous requests.

Why is my old v1 endpoint no longer working?

The v1 version of the ZIPAPI is no longer available.
You can always switch to the modern v2 ZIPAPI with improved features, higher performance and an improved and more consistent structure.

Sign up now for free and switch to the new v2 API.

What data format does the API return?

All responses are provided in JSON format, which is ideal for modern web apps and microservices.

Is ZIPAPI GDPR compliant?

Yes, ZIPAPI does not process any personal data and is fully GDPR-compliant. All location data is based on public sources such as postal code registries.
