## faq

### You're just providing pricing data. Why would I pay for this?

You're paying for a lot more than the data. With cs2.sh, you get continuous support, updates, and a reliable & accurate price API. Pricing data also tends to be something you build a system with, and cs2.sh removes the time-consuming and annoying part of that. You get to integrate a single up-to-date and accurate API, rather than building and maintaining a collector for every marketplace. And worrying about API changes, new items, and IP/scraping blocks. Spend your time on what actually matters :)

### Is there a free trial?

Yes – we have a free 2-day trial for the developer plan. Trials are issued automatically in the Discord server. You just need to sign up, then open a ticket and enter your email address.

### I only need some data. Do you have any custom or budget plans?

No - we try to keep pricing as simple as possible, so we only have two plans. There's nothing wrong with only using some of the data, though :)

### Are there request limits or usage caps?

Every plan includes unlimited requests with no monthly limit. However, requests are limited to 10 requests per second per key.

### What's the difference between the Developer and Scale plans?

Developer ($75/mo) is intended for current data / latest prices. Scale ($200/mo) includes all latest-endpoints plus OHLC price history, BUFF and Steam history, and the archive and liquidity endpoints. There are no restrictions on marketplaces across plans.

### Can I upgrade, downgrade, or cancel anytime?

Yes. Plans are managed from the Dashboard. Upgrades take effect immediately, with unused time credited toward the change; downgrades and cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing period, with full access until then.

### How often is the data updated?

Current prices refresh approximately every 5 minutes. Youpin Doppler data updates every 5-15 minutes and CSFloat Doppler data every 10-15 minutes. The dedicated BUFF endpoint updates every ~10 minutes; the dedicated Steam endpoint every ~5 minutes. Every response provides both a collected_at and updated_at timestamp.

### How far back does historical data go?

It depends on the endpoint. /v1/prices/history (continuous OHLC) covers data since December 24, 2025; /v1/archive/history since 2023; /v1/archive/csfloat since 2022; /v1/archive/steam (native Steam median sale prices) since April 26, 2013; and /v1/archive/youpin (Youpin sale prices at 1h/4h/12h intervals) since November 12, 2025.

### How are Doppler phases and variants priced?

Variants are priced individually per source within a variants object, rather than being collapsed into a single price. cs2.sh supports variants for Doppler (Phase 1–4, Ruby, Sapphire, Black Pearl), Gamma Doppler (Phase 1–4, Emerald), and Case Hardened (Tier 1–4, Blue Gem).
