1. Who provides the service
WeatherTick (weathertick.com) is operated by WeatherTick Ltd. Contact: support@weathertick.com. These terms apply to the website, the board and the API. By creating an account or using the service, you agree to these terms. You must be at least 18 and legally able to enter into this agreement.
2. The product and its limits
WeatherTick brings together weather observations, forecasts and public market information for research, including research by Kalshi, Polymarket, Polymarket US and IBKR ForecastEx users. Every plan includes the board; Trader and Desk add an API with plan-specific limits. The API covers every settlement station we track: latest observations, the running daily extremes converted into each venue’s settlement unit, hourly forecasts for United States stations, measured per-station publication latency, and up to seven days of stored observations. Desk adds two things no other plan has: the fast feed, meaning readings from private priority channels on the stations they cover, on the board and through the API; and the model’s probability for each bucket of the contracts it prices, shown on the board and not served through the API. No plan includes historical backtests beyond the seven-day window or any guarantee of settlement values.
Sample data is labeled. Live sources may be delayed, revised, unavailable or incomplete. Check source timestamps and each exchange’s official contract and settlement rules. WeatherTick is independent of the exchanges and weather agencies; it does not hold trading funds, execute trades, give personalized investment advice or guarantee returns.
3. Accounts and permitted use
Sign in with Google, GitHub or an emailed code and keep your account and API keys secure. You may use the service for your own research, scripts, models and internal dashboards within your plan limits. Do not share or resell API keys, bypass quotas or authentication, disrupt the service, use it unlawfully, or redistribute third-party data in breach of the source’s terms. Contact us before redistributing a feed to other customers.
4. Plans, prices and API credits
Explorer is free and needs no payment details: the board, with live data for the 8 stations where two venues settle the same city differently. It issues no API keys. Watch costs USD 9.90 per month and opens every settlement station and the hourly forecast; it issues no API keys either. Trader costs USD 19.90 per month and is where the API starts: 5 active keys, every endpoint, 150,000 API credits per month and 60 requests per minute. Desk costs USD 79.90 per month: 10 active keys, 750,000 credits and 300 requests per minute, plus the fast feed and the model probabilities described in section 2.
All keys on an account share its quotas. Credits reset at the start of each UTC calendar month, independently of your subscription renewal date; unused credits do not roll over or have cash value. Monthly credits apply only to requests made with an API key: each successful API-key request to a metered endpoint uses one credit. Using the board and the station pages in your browser while signed in is not metered on any plan, and neither is the usage endpoint. Invalid requests and provider failures do not consume monthly credits, but attempts count toward request-rate limits. Limits and reset times appear in your account.
5. Payment, renewal and cancellation
Waffo Pancake processes purchases as merchant of record and is the seller shown on your receipt. Your checkout and receipt state the billing currency, tax, total and billing interval. Monthly subscriptions renew automatically at the disclosed price until canceled before the next charge. We do not store your full card details. Paid access starts after payment confirmation.
Use Manage subscription on the Plans & benefits page to cancel renewal. If the link is unavailable, contact support before renewal for assistance. Cancellation of renewal retains access until the end of the paid period and does not itself refund that period. Failed renewals do not extend paid access; after the paid period ends, the account returns to Explorer. Refunds follow the Refunds & cancellation policy and applicable consumer law. Plan changes, invoices and billing details are available in the same portal.
6. Availability and responsibility
We work to provide a useful, functioning service but do not promise uninterrupted availability or perfect data accuracy. You are responsible for your own research and trading decisions. To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for trading losses or indirect losses caused by reliance on data. This does not exclude liability or remedies that cannot legally be excluded, including applicable consumer rights.
We may restrict an account or key where necessary to address abuse, a security incident or a legal requirement, and will explain the reason where lawful and practicable. If we cannot provide a paid service, the refund policy applies.
7. Updates and contact
We will publish updated terms here with their effective date. Material changes to existing paid access or prices will be communicated before they take effect, allowing you to cancel renewal. Changes will not remove accrued or mandatory rights. If you have a complaint or an account issue, contact us so we can investigate.
