## FAQ
 How do I buy?
 Order on Xianyu and we send you an API key (like ct-xxxxxxxx). We recommend the Authorization: Bearer header (keeps the key out of logs); the ?key= URL parameter also works and is handy for a quick browser test. **Unlimited** is activated by contacting us on Xianyu (monthly subscription).

 Does the key expire?
 Buyout packs (Trial / Standard / Pro) are billed per **call** and never expire — they last until they run out. **Unlimited** is a monthly subscription; we remind you before it lapses.

 Is “Unlimited” really unlimited?
 No **total cap**, with fair-use protection: 100,000 calls/day · 600/min (normal usage never comes close). It keeps a few abnormal clients from slowing everyone down.

 Can I try it?
 Yes. The 5 free data endpoints need no key (anonymous access is 5/min; solve one PoW challenge to get 60/min).

 Buyout pack or Unlimited?
 **One-off bulk runs** (backtests, data loading, history backfill) → buyout packs (they never expire); **continuous heavy use** (daily strategies, monitoring) → the Unlimited subscription.

 Why limit the number of IPs?
 To stop resale. Normal use (switching networks, dynamic IPs) rarely trips it; if it does, contact us and we reset it.

 Where does the data come from?
 Multiple public data channels with cross-checks. We do not process the data — we keep many sources switching automatically behind one stable call.

 What if a source breaks?
 70 sources back each other up: if one is unavailable the next one takes over automatically — your code never handles it. See the **live status page**.

 Do you offer refunds?
 Virtual goods are non-refundable, but we **make it work** — if you cannot get it running we debug it with you, or swap the key.

 Do you provide invoices?
 Not at the moment.
