Questions.

Common questions about the Fortune Teller API.

Read the docs →

Which fortune categories can I request?

You can request readings across categories such as love, career, health, wealth, and travel. Each reading generates an AI-powered prediction tailored to that specific life topic.

Can users ask their own questions, or are readings fixed?

Users can submit an optional custom question to receive a personalized reading, or you can omit the question to generate a general fortune for the selected category. The response echoes back the question alongside the generated fortune.

How far does the Starter plan go for fortune readings?

Starter provides 200,000 credits each month, which covers 20,000 fortune readings at 10 credits per call. That works out to about $0.0015 per reading or $1.50 per 1,000 calls. The Free plan includes 20 readings per month for testing.

Are lucky numbers and timeframes included on the Free plan?

No, those are reserved for paid tiers. The Free plan returns the primary fortune prediction, while manifestation timeframes, intuitive insights, lucky numbers, lucky elements, lucky colors, and lucky days are unlocked on Starter and higher plans.

Is there a length limit when users submit custom questions?

Yes, custom questions cannot exceed 500 characters. If your application lets users type their own questions, keep inputs within this limit or omit the parameter entirely for an open-ended fortune.

Request parameters — GET /v1/fortuneteller

Sent in the query string. Premium parameters are accepted on every plan but only take effect on plans that include them. Anything not listed here is dropped rather than passed through.

Optional

Parameter	Type	Example	Description
`category`Optional	string	`general`	Fortune category `generallovecareerhealthwealthtravel` default general
`question`Optional	string	`What does the future hold for me?`	Optional question for personalized fortune (max 500 characters) length 0-500

Example request

1
2

curl "https://api.apiverve.com/v1/fortuneteller?category=general&question=What%20does%20the%20future%20hold%20for%20me%3F" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Authentication

Send your key in the x-api-key header. That is the only auth step — no token exchange, and no per-endpoint scope to configure.

Header	When	Value
`x-api-key`Required	Every request	Your API key. Header names are case-insensitive, so `X-API-Key` is the same header.
`Authorization`Alternate	Instead of the above	`Bearer <key>` — for clients that only expose bearer auth. Resolves to the same account and the same billing.

401 is the only auth verdict

A 401 means the key is missing, invalid or expired. A 403 means the key is valid but not permitted here — blocked by a key restriction or an IP allow-list. Running out of credits is a 429.

Response — GET /v1/fortuneteller

Every APIVerve endpoint returns the same three top-level keys, so one response handler covers your whole integration: status, error and data. Only data changes shape.

Sample response

{
  "status": "ok",
  "error": null,
  "data": {
    "fortune": "The threads of destiny are weaving a tapestry of unexpected joy; embrace the unknown, for within its depths lie blossoms of serendipity. A golden opportunity awaits, carried upon the wings of synchronicity.",
    "insight": "Trust in the whispers of your intuition; it shall guide you through the maze of life.",
    "timeframe": "in the coming weeks",
    "category": "general",
    "question": null,
    "luckyNumbers": [
      87,
      10,
      16,
      83,
      99,
      34
    ],
    "luckyElement": "Wood",
    "luckyColor": "Purple",
    "luckyDay": "Tuesday",
    "timestamp": "2025-12-16T22:23:31.796Z"
  }
}

Response fields

Paths are relative to data. Premium fields are absent rather than zeroed on plans that do not include them, so check for presence instead of comparing to 0.

Field	Type	Example	Description
`fortune`	string	`"The threads of destiny are weaving a tapestry of unexpected joy; embrace the unknown, for within its depths lie blossoms of serendipity. A …`	Main AI-generated fortune prediction text message
`insight`Premium	string	`"Trust in the whispers of your intuition; it shall guide you through the maze of life."`	Intuitive guidance and wisdom derived from fortune
`timeframe`Premium	string	`"in the coming weeks"`	Timeframe indicating when the fortune will manifest
`category`	string	`"general"`	Category of the fortune requested by user
`question`	object	`null`	User's original question if provided in request
`luckyNumbers`Premium	array	`[87, ...]`	Array of AI-selected lucky numbers for fortune
`luckyElement`Premium	string	`"Wood"`	Lucky elemental association from mystical traditions
`luckyColor`Premium	string	`"Purple"`	Lucky color associated with the fortune
`luckyDay`Premium	string	`"Tuesday"`	Lucky day of week for fortune manifestation
`timestamp`	string	`"2025-12-16T22:23:31.796Z"`	ISO timestamp of when fortune was generated

Response headers

Every response carries your balance, so your own code always knows where it stands without polling anything. All four are exposed to browsers through CORS.

Header	What it carries
`x-api-remaining-credits`	Credits left in the current cycle
`x-api-credits-used`	Credits spent in the current cycle
`x-api-max-credits`	The allowance for the cycle
`x-api-version`	Version of the endpoint that answered

Errors

Read the HTTP status first, then error for the specific reason. The body names the parameter that has to change.

Status	Meaning	What to do
`400`	Input was rejected	Read `error`; it names the parameter that has to change.
`401`	Key missing or invalid	Check the header name and the key value.
`403`	Key valid, but not permitted here	A key restriction or an IP allow-list — never a bad key.
`429`	Rate limited, or out of credits	Read `error` to tell them apart, then back off or top up.

What a call costs — 10 credits per call

Credits are shared across every APIVerve API — one balance, one key, one bill. Failed requests never count against it, so a rejected input costs nothing.

Plan	Per month	Credits	Fortune Teller calls	Per 1,000 calls
Free	Free	200	20	Free
Starter	$29.99	200,000	20,000	$1.50
Pro	$99.99	1,000,000	100,000	$1.00
Mega	$299.99	4,000,000	400,000	$0.75

Calls are what the credits buy at this API's rate — spend them here, on any of the other APIs, or across both. Nothing is reserved per endpoint.
