Turnstile 1 million verify requests limit

Hi,
We are introducing Turnstile protection to our website and we’d like to understand exactly what happens if we ever reach the 1 million verification requests limit per month.

  • Will the API throw a particular error?
  • Is it possible to get warning when reaching let’s say 80% of the usage for the month?

Thanks in advance.
Gabriel

I don’t see any rate limits they have done on the turnstile api endpoints. If there, can you link to it?

I found a mention about it in the following page: https://developers.cloudflare.com/turnstile/#availability

Quote:

For the beta, customers are limited to 1 million calls to the siteverify verification endpoint per month per site. Customers who need additional requests can upgrade to Enterprise Bot Management.

I forgot to mention that this limit seems to apply to the server-side validation only.

After 1 million, all API requests will just immediately succeed and return a general success, so your implementation won’t break.

As for notifications on usage, I don’t believe that’s supported today but would be a good thing to see in future.

Thanks for the info @cherryjimbo !

Indeed, configurable usage alerts would be a nice feature :slight_smile:

great, but where did you find this info?

Cloudflare support did not give me this information
