Free Accounts
Market Data offers two ways for users to use our service for free. We offer the "Free Forever" plan, which allows for 100 API requests per day. We also offer a free 30 day trial (no credit card required) so that users can test our services and determine which plan best meets their needs. Trial accounts work almost exactly the same as paid accounts and have the same plan limits. There are a few differences, however.

24 Hour Delayed Data
Free Forever and trial accounts only have access to data that is delayed by at least 24 hours. Check the date column in the Add-on or the updated key in the API's JSON response to get the exact date and time of the quote data you've received.
Standard vs Premium Endpoints
Free and trial plans have access to most standard endpoints that give pricing information. However, our premium endpoints that provide fundamental data (such as earnings data) are only accessible with a paid subscription.
Historical Data
Free and trial plans cannot access data older than 1 year. We welcome you to use our free trial to test our historical data going back one year. However, if you need older data, a subscription is required.
