    Hi Eta,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. For security reasons, we have a rate limit of 60 form submissions per 1 minute from the same IP address; the form should be submitted successfully in the next minute if you do not exceed the limit. I've cleared your form's caches. Can you give it another try and let us know what happens?

    Keep us updated and let us know if you need any more help.

    Hi etab,

    I cloned your form and tested it to see if I could replicate the issue, but everything was working properly. Check out the screencast below to see my results:

    Can you try it again and see how it goes? If you run into the same issue again, can take a reference screenshot and send it to us? We’ve got a guide here that’ll show you how to do that.

    Once we hear back from you, we'll be able to move forward with this.

    Hello,

    We are sorry for the issue you experienced.

    We apply some security limits for the forms. There are two different rate limiters here.

    If your form gets 10 and more payment related errors in 1 hour, we show "429 too many requests #30" error on the page .

    If your form gets more than 15 payments in 1 hour from the same IP, we show "429 too many requests #21" error on the page.

    These rate limiters are for preventing fraud attempts. If you still want to increase the rate limit for a specific form, please share the form id (or form ids) with us.

    Thank you.
