# PingOne standard platform limits

The PingOne platform includes default limits to ensure secure and reliable access for all of our customers.

## Rate group entitlements

PingOne sets rate limits based on your purchased PingOne products, as well as the product APIs licensed in your product license. Rate groups, which are groups of endpoints related to a particular product or service, each have their own rate limit entitlements.

|   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        |
| - | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|   | Enforcement of the rate entitlement values for the rate groups listed in the following table will begin at some point after September 2025. You can use the **API Usage Dashboard** now to track your usage and determine if the existing entitlements will be sufficient to meet the needs of your business when enforcement starts. Learn more in [API Usage Dashboard](../settings/p1_api_usage_dashboard.html) and [Rate Limits and Allowed IPs](../settings/p1_rate_limits.html). |

The rate groups listed in this table are those for which you can purchase additional capacity through our Maximum Throughput Assurance program. You can find a detailed listing of all rate groups, including their base entitlements and associated endpoints, in [Base rate limits](https://developer.pingidentity.com/pingone-api/platform/rate-limiting/base-rate-limits.html) in the PingOne API documentation.
