Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about PlaceIQ pricing.
What counts as an API request?
Each call to any PlaceIQ API endpoint counts as one request. This includes requests to get area scores, search areas, compare neighbourhoods, and batch operations. Batch requests count as one request regardless of the number of areas in the batch (within your plan's batch limit).
Can I change my plan at any time?
Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time. When upgrading, the new features are available immediately and we pro-rate the billing. When downgrading, the change takes effect at the start of your next billing cycle.
What happens if I exceed my request limit?
We'll notify you when you reach 80% of your monthly limit. If you exceed your limit, additional requests are charged at overage rates (Starter: R0.10/request, Growth: R0.05/request, Enterprise: R0.02/request). You can also set up automatic plan upgrades to avoid interruptions.
Do you offer a free trial?
Yes! All plans come with a 14-day free trial and 1,000 free API calls. No credit card required to start. This gives you time to integrate the API and test with your application before committing.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), debit cards, and EFT for annual plans. Enterprise and Custom plans can also be invoiced with NET 30 terms.
Is there a discount for annual billing?
Yes, annual billing gives you 2 months free (17% discount). For example, Starter annual is R4,990/year instead of R5,988. Contact us for custom annual pricing on Enterprise and Custom plans.
What areas does PlaceIQ cover?
PlaceIQ currently covers 150+ neighbourhoods across all 9 South African provinces, with a focus on major metros (Gauteng, Western Cape, KZN). We're continuously expanding coverage - check our documentation for the full list of supported areas.
