World Timezone API

A World Timezone API is a software application programming interface that provides developers with a way to retrieve time zone information for a specific country and city.

About the API:  

This API allows developers to obtain time zone information for any location in the world, enabling them to develop time-sensitive applications that require accurate time zone information.

The API typically provides access to a database of time zone information, including the time zone name and time zone abbreviation. This information is usually updated periodically to ensure that it is accurate and up to date.

When developers use the API, they typically make a request with a country and city name. The API then returns the time zone information for that location, which can be used to convert a UTC time to the local time for that location.

The use cases for a World Timezone API are numerous. For example, it can be used to develop applications that require time-sensitive information, such as online booking systems, event scheduling tools, and international messaging platforms. By providing accurate time zone information, developers can ensure that their applications work correctly in different time zones.

The API can also be used by companies and organizations that operate in multiple time zones. For example, a company with offices in multiple countries can use the API to ensure that its employees know the correct time in each location. This can help avoid scheduling conflicts and ensure that meetings are held at a convenient time for all participants.

In addition, travel and tourism companies can use the API to provide accurate time zone information to their customers. This can be especially useful for international travelers who are unaware of the time difference between their home and destination countries.

Overall, is a powerful tool for developers and businesses that need accurate time zone information. By facilitating access to time zone data, the API enables developers to create time-sensitive applications that work correctly in different time zones, and allows businesses to operate more efficiently in a global marketplace.

What are the most common uses cases of this API?

  1. International booking systems: Companies offering flight, hotel, and other travel-related booking services need accurate time zone information to ensure that bookings are made correctly in different time zones.

  2. Event schedule: Event organizers need to know the correct local time for each event location, especially if they organize events in multiple countries.

  3. Online communication: Messaging platforms, email clients and other online communication tools need accurate time zone information to ensure messages are delivered at the correct time.

  4. Conference calls: Teams working in different time zones need to schedule conference calls at a time that is convenient for all participants. Time zone information can help avoid scheduling conflicts and ensure meetings are held at a time that is convenient for everyone.

  5. Social media platforms: Social media platforms need to display the correct time for posts, comments, and other interactions across different time zones.

Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.

Prices are listed in USD (United States Dollar), EUR (Euro), CAD (Canadian Dollar), AUD (Australian Dollar), and GBP (British Pound). We accept all major debit and credit cards. Our payment system uses the latest security technology and is powered by Stripe, one of the world’s most reliable payment companies. If you have any trouble paying by card, just contact us at [email protected]

Additionally, if you already have an active subscription in any of these currencies (USD, EUR, CAD, AUD, GBP), that currency will remain for subsequent subscriptions. You can change the currency at any time as long as you don't have any active subscriptions.

The local currency shown on the pricing page is based on the country of your IP address and is provided for reference only. The actual prices are in USD (United States Dollar). When you make a payment, the charge will appear on your card statement in USD, even if you see the equivalent amount in your local currency on our website. This means you cannot pay directly with your local currency.

Occasionally, a bank may decline the charge due to its fraud protection settings. We suggest reaching out to your bank initially to check if they are blocking our charges. Also, you can access the Billing Portal and change the card associated to make the payment. If these does not work and you need further assistance, please contact our team at [email protected]

Prices are determined by a recurring monthly or yearly subscription, depending on the chosen plan.

API calls are deducted from your plan based on successful requests. Each plan comes with a specific number of calls that you can make per month. Only successful calls, indicated by a Status 200 response, will be counted against your total. This ensures that failed or incomplete requests do not impact your monthly quota.

Zyla API Hub works on a recurring monthly subscription system. Your billing cycle will start the day you purchase one of the paid plans, and it will renew the same day of the next month. So be aware to cancel your subscription beforehand if you want to avoid future charges.

To upgrade your current subscription plan, simply go to the pricing page of the API and select the plan you want to upgrade to. The upgrade will be instant, allowing you to immediately enjoy the features of the new plan. Please note that any remaining calls from your previous plan will not be carried over to the new plan, so be aware of this when upgrading. You will be charged the full amount of the new plan.

To check how many API calls you have left for the current month, look at the β€˜X-Zyla-API-Calls-Monthly-Remaining’ header. For example, if your plan allows 1000 requests per month and you've used 100, this header will show 900.

To see the maximum number of API requests your plan allows, check the β€˜X-Zyla-RateLimit-Limit’ header. For instance, if your plan includes 1000 requests per month, this header will display 1000.

The β€˜X-Zyla-RateLimit-Reset’ header shows the number of seconds until your rate limit resets. This tells you when your request count will start fresh. For example, if it displays 3600, it means 3600 seconds are left until the limit resets.

Yes, you can cancel your plan anytime by going to your account and selecting the cancellation option on the Billing page. Please note that upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations take effect immediately. Additionally, upon cancellation, you will no longer have access to the service, even if you have remaining calls left in your quota.

You can contact us through our chat channel to receive immediate assistance. We are always online from 8 am to 5 pm (EST). If you reach us after that time, we will get back to you as soon as possible. Additionally, you can contact us via email at [email protected]

To let you experience our APIs without any commitment, we offer a 7-day free trial that allows you to make API calls at no cost during this period. Please note that you can only use this trial once, so make sure to use it with the API that interests you the most. Most of our APIs provide a free trial, but some may not support it.

After 7 days, you will be charged the full amount for the plan you were subscribed to during the trial. Therefore, it’s important to cancel before the trial period ends. Refund requests for forgetting to cancel on time are not accepted.

When you subscribe to an API trial, you can make only 25% of the calls allowed by that plan. For example, if the API plan offers 1000 calls, you can make only 250 during the trial. To access the full number of calls offered by the plan, you will need to subscribe to the full plan.
