Limits
  • request-rate 2 queries per second; a faster IP is temporarily blocked and then permanently banned source
Bindingnone no new key can be created, so no limit can be reached by a new user.

Egressnot applicable: raw, XML or JSON answers, not metered in bytes
Per-object capone IP address per request (the ip parameter, default the caller)
Retentionnot stated; the page suggests keeping the geolocation in a cookie instead of querying on every page view
Interfacerest GET https://api.ipinfodb.com/v3/ip-country/ and /v3/ip-city/ with the key, ip and format parameters (raw, xml or json)
Toolingany HTTP client; PHP, Ruby, Python, C#, VB.NET and Java examples are on the page
Composes withNo new key can be created; the register page names the IP2Location.io free API as the replacement. Bulk path: none.
Reliabilitypast 2 queries a second an IP address is temporarily blocked by a firewall and then permanently banned; the origin answers HTTP 403 to a plain client and the pages were read from stored copies
NotesFree requests: none for new users; sign-ups are closed. Rate limit: 2 queries a second, blocked then banned past it. Bulk path: none. The replacement named on the register page is IP2Location.io, which has its own record.
Evidence notedocumented The API page and the register page were quoted on 2026-11-02 from stored copies, because the origin answers HTTP 403 to direct reads; whether keys issued earlier still answer was not tested.
