SERP API pricing

SERP API pricing with one-time credit purchases.

Compare PrismCrawl SERP API credit packages, volume rates, success-only billing, and costs for Google and Bing searches. No subscription required.

One credit, one successful search

Use the same prepaid balance for the Google Search API, Bing Search API, Amazon, and Google Maps. A successful search uses one credit, including supported SERP features. Failed requests are not charged.

JSON and supported source HTML output use the same search rate. A page of results is one request, regardless of how many listings it contains. Requesting the next page is another search. A successful response does not mean that your target website ranked or that a particular feature appeared. See the request and response contracts.

Credit packages and volume pricing

All packages are one-time purchases. Credits expire 90 days after purchase; there is no recurring subscription requirement. Larger purchases reduce the unit rate and may raise the request-per-second limit.

What do 1,000 to 1 million SERP requests cost?

These examples assume successful searches and choose the smallest single package that covers the stated volume. Usage value is the portion of that package consumed, not a separate checkout price. Remaining credits must be used before they expire.

For recurring jobs, count keywords × engines × locations × devices × checks × pages. For example, 500 keywords checked daily on Google and Bing, in one location on two devices, for 30 days require 60,000 successful first-page searches. Use the cost calculator for another volume or review the rank tracking workflow.

Choose a package for your actual workload

A cheap SERP API rate is useful only if you can use the credits and finish within your collection window. Compare package spend, expiration, request limits, output, and page depth together. The SERP API buyer's guide explains how to compare prepaid credits with monthly plans.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a subscription?

No. Buy prepaid credits when you need them. Purchases do not automatically renew, and the same balance works across PrismCrawl search services.

What counts as a successful request?

A search that returns a successful API response consumes one credit. Errors are free. Billing is per successful search request, not per organic listing or SERP feature. Each successful request for another results page uses another credit.

When do credits expire?

Purchased credits are valid for 90 days after purchase. Plan around the searches you expect to run within that period, not only the lowest advertised rate.

Are Google and Bing priced differently?

No. Both use one credit per successful search. Supported SERP features and targeting controls are included. Features are returned when available in the selected engine's results; their presence is not guaranteed for every query.

Can I try the API before buying credits?

New accounts receive 100 free credits without a credit card. Use them to test your queries, locations, devices, and output requirements.
