6 request at Freepik with API for content images cost 6 EURO!

I am trying to get some stock images using API.
6 request at Freepik with API for content images cost 6 EURO!

Has anyone experienced anything like this?
Thank God, I have a spending limit 20 euro there

Their 5 EURO credit only cost like 0.002 per request, but immediately when I upgrade, it is different numbers

Well, it happens. If you dont need the best quality of images, I use pexels for that, they give you 20k free requests per month

Does pexels have a hourly limit?
It says

"Do not abuse the API. By default, the API is rate-limited to 200 requests per hour and 20,000 requests per month. You may contact us to request a higher limit, but please include examples, or be prepared to give a demo, that clearly shows your use of the API with attribution. If you meet our API terms, you can get unlimited requests for free."

Ah yeah, they have an hourly limit, but you can easily do multiple accounts and then just multiply
