Hello,
I'm currently developing an app that uses TMDB as a complementary service, and it will be released for commercial use. I'm planning to obtain the proper commercial license once the app goes into production.
However, I'm unsure what API rate limits would apply to commercial usage, and whether those limits differ from the free/developer tier. Could you please clarify what restrictions or quotas I should expect under a commercial license?
Thank you in advance!

Hi @DevToppin,
There is no rate limit difference between a developer or commercial API key. But there's a reason for this, our rate limits are really high (~40 r/s per IP address), so this rarely causes people an issue.
