Questions about Pay per VIN

No. Pay per VIN works with a balance: you top it up and every record you open takes one report from it. Write to us and we turn it on for your key.

/local-exists/{vin} answers exists true or false. When the car is there, you also get its title, a photo, the auctions it was on and the ids of its lots.

Only when /local-report/{vin} returns a vehicle. A VIN we do not have answers 404 with local data not found and costs nothing; so do 402 (balance too low) and 403 (Pay per VIN is not on for the key).

The same vehicle object as /search-vin: year, make, model, engine and other specifications, and every lot or listing (Copart and IAAI in the USA, Encar in South Korea) with dates, prices, damage, odometer and photos.

The USA (Copart and IAAI auctions) and South Korea (Encar listings). We are adding more countries.

Yes: every /local-report call that returns a car takes one report. Save the record on your side when you need it again.

Yes. A set of test VINs is free on /local-report, so you can build and test the whole flow. They are listed in the documentation.

Every record comes with balance (reports you can still open) and balance_usd. If your Telegram is linked to the key, each charge is also reported there.
