About
The IP API is an IP geolocation API that returns country, city, latitude, longitude, ASN, timezone, currency, and company data from a single HTTP GET request. It supports IPv4 and IPv6 and returns predictable JSON responses for lookup and batch-style use cases.
The pricing page lists a perpetual free plan with 1,000 requests per day, plus geolocation data, ASN and company info, commercial use, and daily data updates. The service is aimed at developers building personalization, fraud detection, analytics, and geo-based access control.
- 1,000 requests per day free
- IPv4 and IPv6 support
- Country, city, ASN, timezone data
- Commercial use included
- Daily data updates
- 99.95% uptime SLA
Free Tier Value
This free tier is perpetual, requires no credit card, and includes the same core data fields and commercial use as the paid plans, but it is capped at 1,000 requests per day and excludes email support. Compared with the $19/month Beginner plan at 600,000 requests per month, the free allowance is roughly 5% of that volume, so it is worth about $6/month as a practical buyer comparison.
