V0 api returns random 402 error despite having enough credits

I am facing an issue on V0 '“platform api’s” “create chat” endpoint. It works well initially but After sending a few request on it, it returns random 402 error (credit exceeded error) like this: >> message:402 - {“error”:{“type”:“payment_required_error”,“message”:"You are out of credits. Add more or enable Auto-topup at https://v0.app/chat/settings/billing”}}

Though I have enough credits on my account. Is it for exceeding rate limits? if yes, how much time I have to set intervals between creating each chats?

This does sounds like a rate limiting issue rather than an actual credit problem. The v0 API has rate limits in place to prevent abuse, and when you hit these limits, it can sometimes return a 402 error even when you have sufficient credits.

Try adding a 1–2 second delay between API calls, using exponential backoff when you hit 402 errors, and batching requests where possible.
