Esports API free tier.
Instant key. Real CS2 props.

A free tier only helps if you can use it today. KashRock Sandbox gives you a live key and real CS2 props so you can validate auth, schema, and joins — before you spend anything.

What Sandbox includes

  • $0 / month — no card required to start
  • Instant API key after Google sign-in
  • Live CS2 props on the normalized schema
  • Same propId / stat_type shapes as paid tiers
Practical rule: use Sandbox to prove your client against production JSON — not a mock fixture.

What it is not

Sandbox is for evaluation and development. It is not unlimited multi-sport production throughput. League of Legends, Dota 2, Valorant boards, and higher rate limits start on paid plans.

When to upgrade

Move to Hobby when you need multi-title coverage or steady production traffic. See esports API pricing for the full menu, or the CS2 API reference for the schema you will keep after upgrade.

What does the free tier include?

CS2 player props on the Sandbox plan for development and evaluation. Multi-sport boards and higher limits start at Hobby ($29/mo).
