CoinGecko Not Working for You? It Might Not Be an Outage

If the status above shows no ongoing outage but CoinGecko isn't loading for you, the problem is likely on your side or with your internet provider.

Common Reasons CoinGecko Stops Working

• CoinGecko API rate limit exceeded — the free tier has strict per-minute call limits
• A specific exchange data feed delayed or missing while other market data is fresh
• CoinGecko experiencing high traffic during periods of extreme market volatility
• CoinGecko Pro vs free API on different infrastructure — Pro has higher uptime guarantees
• CoinGecko website and CoinGecko API experiencing issues independently

How to Fix CoinGecko Not Working

1. Check status.coingecko.com for API and website incidents
2. Check your API call rate against the free tier limit (10–30 calls/min) — implement caching to reduce calls
3. If specific exchange data is stale, check if that exchange is marked as "delayed" on CoinGecko
4. During market volatility, CoinGecko often experiences traffic spikes — retry with exponential backoff
5. Consider upgrading to CoinGecko Pro for higher rate limits and SLA guarantees
6. Contact CoinGecko support at support.coingecko.com for API-specific issues
