You must register in order to use the APIs. Access to the Legacy API is free for non-commercial use, up to 100 calls/day. All API accounts additionally include free trial access to the premium APIs: Easy Fares API, Season Ticket Price API and Rovers & Rangers API, up to 10 calls/day. There is no fixed time limit for the free trial access.
You may access all our premium APIs via the Rail Data Marketplace and try them out at zero cost: each API has a free demo version. Here is the link to register.
As well as the Freemium pricing model, on the Rail Data Marketplace there are also pricing models suitable for full commercial use. However if these do not meet your needs, please indicate your requirements in the form below or contact us at any time on info@brfares.com to discuss.
