Prepaid service calls
Configured rate
Top up the wallet and spend only when verified accounts make billable Instagram import calls.
- Profile lookup
- Paginated post listing
- Post detail import
- Idempotent `X-Request-Id` billing
Pricing
Pay for Instagram imports as you use them.
instro uses a prepaid wallet for Instagram service calls. There is no endpoint-by-endpoint pricing maze: profile lookup, post listing, reels, and post detail imports all share one configured service-call price.
Plans
Simple commercial building blocks.
The service separates Instagram requests from media storage so finance, support, and product teams can reason about each cost clearly.
500 MB storage
50,000 TOMAN
For teams starting with media imports and profile/post image storage.
- 500 MB capacity
- Final file-size accounting
- Checksum deduplication
- Optional expiration policy
1 GB storage
100,000 TOMAN
For higher-volume onboarding flows and repeated post-detail imports.
- 1 GB capacity
- Separate from API wallet
- Per-account usage reporting
- Duplicate files avoid duplicate capacity
Billing rules
Built to keep retries, failures, and finance records clean.
instro records usage, duration, request id, billing metadata, wallet movements, quota usage, and storage consumption so support can audit what happened after each import.
Unverified, suspended, unfunded, over-quota, or storage-ineligible accounts are rejected before wallet consumption.
Every billable operation requires `X-Request-Id`, which protects clients from duplicate charges on retries.
Provider failures are refunded unless the service catalog policy says that failure class should still be charged.
Wallet mutations create immutable transactions; corrections use reversing entries instead of editing history.

FAQ
Pricing questions before integration.
Is instro Instagram API a subscription?
No. Instagram service calls use a prepaid wallet model. Storage capacity is purchased separately through storage plans.
Do different endpoints have different prices?
No. Profile lookup, post listing, and post detail imports all use one global service-call price.
Does unused wallet balance expire?
The current implementation treats wallet balance as account balance. Expiration policy is an open business decision, so do not promise automatic expiration without an admin policy.
Are failed requests charged?
Requests rejected before billing do not consume wallet balance. Provider failures are refunded unless the service catalog policy is configured to charge that class of failure.
Can high-volume accounts get a custom setup?
Yes. High-volume accounts can use admin-managed quotas, wallet top-ups, service policies, and storage plans tailored to their import workflow.
