Hey guys. I read about openrouter new policy with expanded response limit for users who have at least 10 credits on their account and added 11 credits to my balance today. Create new API key, used it in ST with Deepseek R1 (Free). I'm positive that I didn't reach extended limit, since I text something around 20-40 messages only, which usually doesn't even hit ordinary 200 limit we have before and I got exceeded limit message in ST. Any help?
#Does new expanded limit for 10 credits on account working?

Hi @split compass the DeepSeek R1 free endpoint has a 100 Requests Per Day limit, separate from the other limits - will discuss with the team if we can adjust this
Hey, uh... Kinda need to mention that in FAQ section, I guess. So what other models are also having this limit?
Just talked to the team, we're going to remove the 100 RPD on this endpoint
will there be another limit or will it be unlimited?(sorry not sure if I'm allowed to ask things in here)
it is now only limited by your account's requests per day limit for free models (50 or 1000)
alright! also related to this did the way the resets work change?
as its been 24 hours yet it stills says I'm exceeded my limit.
the reset isn't exactly 24 hours, it's at a specific time (midnight UTC) each day
hmm yeah it used to work like that for me but it didn't yesterday maybe it'll reset tonight then.
Definitely let me know if it doesn't, will investigate
but that part of the code didn't change
well its also telling me something new this time as before it was just limit met(don't know exact phrasing) now it mentions add the credit thing to extend limit idk if thats related or not if I cant use free ones unless I add 10 dollars
yeah we changed the error message when we made the change to the 1000 requests thing. Did you add 10 dollars? just trying to debug
@split compass just checking in too, did this unblock you now?
Wow, you guys working fast))) Yeah, it's working)
Thanks!
thanks for making a ticket!
I haven't added but I think I might know what happened if it resets at 6pm for me(midnight UTC to CST) then I think I just hit the cap idk the activity only shows 47 logs
errors would also count, so I think that sounds right
just to check to make sure I don't have this wrong Midnight UTC is 6pm CST right? or would it still be my midnight?(sorry if my questions are repetitive I like to be sure)
don't worry about the questions, totally fine. It's midnight UTC, doesn't matter where you live
it might be 7pm now?
after daylight savings stuff?
so then for it should reset at 6-7 PM
yeah
then yeah that checks I just hit the new limit really fast
and if we put 10 dollars we get a 1000 daily limit?
yep
alright thank you Toven!
Hello, I have the same issue but with google/gemini-2.5-pro-exp-03-25:free
Do I have to create a new post?
feel free please
Done!, thank you!
second question can I just put the 10 dollars in and leave it or does it mean I need to maintain it by like spending it on a paid one and then adding more to keep it at 10 dollars?
You do have to maintain it - at least above 10 in credits
but like do they need to be used or can I just throw 10 dollars in and never touch it
