New WB API Rules: paid access for services

About this Episode

A special edition of the "Open Conversation" podcast, fully dedicated to changes in the WB API workflow. Our API Expert, Anatoly Sorokin, explains the transition to a paid access model for external services and outlines our ecosystem development strategy in detail.

In this video, we provide honest and transparent answers to the main questions from developers and partners:

• Payment Model: Why we chose Pay-as-you-go (billing based on actual usage) over subscriptions, and how this benefits startups.
• Data Security: Why service tokens are necessary and how they redefine the interaction between sellers and services.
• Authorization Benefits: Isolated rate limits, dedicated support, and access to exclusive features for "Solutions Catalog" members.
• Future Plans: How the WB API will evolve.
