As a guide, the monthly licensing fee of the QuoteAPI JavaScript library for commercial use starts at $1000 per month. Any applicable exchange data licensing fees are in addition to our fee and normally billed directly by the Exchange.
The Intellectual Property (IP) rights to the market data typically remains with the Stock Exchanges and if third parties want to redistribute this data within their own services they must hold a data license with the relevant exchange(s).
A data license agreement prescribes certain rights and restrictions on how the data can be used and any associated fees to use the data.
The fees depend on the type of data you wish to display and whether the data is live, delayed, or end-of-day.
Irrespective of whether you obtain data via QuoteAPI or from an alternative vendor the same exchange licensing requirements and fees will apply.
Data licensing can be complex. The team at Iguana2 has years of experience in these matters and can assist you to determine the best approach for your service and help to procure the necessary agreements with the exchanges.
