Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) API pricing in 2026 is free Basic at 250 calls/day, then Starter $29, Premium $69 and Ultimate $139 per month on monthly billing, or $19, $49 and $99 per month billed annually. Those figures were read from FMP's official pricing page on 2026-10-11, where the prices are now printed in the page itself and in its structured offer data1. Paid tiers are metered per minute (300, 750 and 3,000 calls) and every plan has a trailing-30-day bandwidth cap. Displaying FMP data to other people needs a separate Data Display and Licensing Agreement. Model the cost for your universe in the Data Vendor TCO.
How much does the FMP API cost in 2026?
| Plan | Monthly billing | Billed annually | API limit | History | Coverage | Bandwidth (30 days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | $0 | $0 | 250 calls/day | End-of-day historical | US | 500MB |
| Starter | $29/mo | $19/mo | 300 calls/minute | Up to 5 years | US | 20GB |
| Premium | $69/mo | $49/mo | 750 calls/minute | Up to 30 years | US, UK, Canada | 50GB |
| Ultimate | $139/mo | $99/mo | 3,000 calls/minute | Full historical access | Global | 150GB |
Every cell comes from FMP's pricing page, read 2026-10-111. The page advertises "Up To 34% Discount" for annual billing; per plan it shows "Save 34%" on Starter and "Save 29%" on Premium and Ultimate. These are personal-use plans; the commercial track is separate (see below).
What changed from the earlier FMP prices?
The figures many write-ups still repeat (Starter $22, Premium $59, Ultimate $149) are not on FMP's page any more. On 2026-10-11 the official page prints $29 / $69 / $139 monthly and $19 / $49 / $99 annual-billed, in its HTML and in its schema.org offers1. Treat any other ladder as stale.
What does each FMP plan add?
- Basic (free): 250 calls/day, end-of-day historical data, profile and reference data, and access to more than 150 endpoints. A real key for testing, not an intraday feed1.
- Starter: 300 calls/minute, up to 5 years of history, US coverage, annual fundamentals and ratios, historical prices, market news, crypto and forex1.
- Premium: 750 calls/minute, up to 30 years of history, UK and Canada coverage, full fundamentals and ratios, intraday charts, technical indicators, corporate calendars and the custom DCF calculator1.
- Ultimate: 3,000 calls/minute, global coverage, earnings call transcripts, ETF and mutual-fund holdings, 13F institutional holdings, 1-minute intraday charting, full historical access, and bulk and batch delivery1.
On the paid plans the per-minute rate and the bandwidth cap bind before any daily limit. A Starter key moving 20GB in thirty days is out of headroom even if it never touches 300 calls in a minute.
Do I need FMP's Data Display and Licensing Agreement?
Yes, if anyone other than you sees the data. FMP's terms on the pricing page state that "displaying or redistributing data sourced from FMP requires a specific Data Display and Licensing Agreement with FMP"1. The individual plans cover personal research and internal analysis. A dashboard, newsletter, app or AI assistant that shows FMP numbers to users needs the commercial track: Build ("begin building with instant access to financial market data that powers startups and enterprises", with a 100GB bandwidth cap), Grow ("a full set of financial data to cover all cases for internal usage") and Enterprise (data display and redistribution, unlimited volume, priority support, 1TB+ bandwidth)1. FMP does not print commercial prices; they are quoted.
Which FMP plan fits?
- Testing endpoints or a nightly fundamentals batch on a handful of tickers: Basic.
- US fundamentals and five years of prices for a research loop: Starter, cheapest on annual billing at $19/month.
- Thirty years of history, intraday charts or UK/Canada names: Premium.
- Transcripts, 13F holdings, global coverage or bulk endpoints: Ultimate.
- Showing data to users: a commercial plan plus the display agreement, regardless of call volume.

Frequently asked questions
- How much does the Financial Modeling Prep API cost in 2026?

- What does the free FMP API tier include?
- The Basic plan allows 250 API calls per day with end-of-day historical data, profile and reference data, US coverage and a 500MB trailing-30-day bandwidth cap. It suits testing and a small nightly batch, not an intraday loop.
- What are the FMP API call limits per plan?
- Basic is 250 calls/day. Starter is 300 calls/minute, Premium 750 calls/minute and Ultimate 3,000 calls/minute. Bandwidth caps (20GB, 50GB, 150GB per trailing 30 days) can bind before the call limit.
- Do I need a licence to display FMP data in my app?
- Yes. FMP's pricing terms say displaying or redistributing FMP data requires a specific Data Display and Licensing Agreement. The individual plans cover personal and internal use; products that show data to users need a commercial plan (Build, Grow or Enterprise).

- Yes. Annual billing brings Starter to $19/month (shown as Save 34%), Premium to $49/month and Ultimate to $99/month (each shown as Save 29%), against $29, $69 and $139 on monthly billing.
