Who Should I Contact for Licensing Questions?

Licensing questions for API.Bible content typically fall into two categories:

1. Questions about your API.Bible plan or platform
2. Questions about specific Bible translations and their intellectual property (IP) holders

Who you should contact depends on the type of question you have.

1. Questions About Your Plan or Platform Licensing

For questions related to your API.Bible account, plan, or general licensing rules, start with the Help Center: https://care.api.bible

Common topics include:

• Whether your use case qualifies as commercial
• Upgrading from non-commercial to commercial use
• Accessing translations that require a Unique License
• AI training and Bible content
• Sub-licensing
• Attribution and copyright requirements

If you cannot find the answer in the Help Center, contact: support@api.bible

2. Questions About a Specific Bible Translation

If your question relates to a specific Bible translation (for example, permissions, restrictions, or special use cases), you may need to contact the intellectual property (IP) holder directly.

How to Identify the IP Holder

1. Visit api.bible/bibles
2. Locate the translation
3. View the Organization (publisher) listed

You can also use filters to find translations by organization.

How to Find Contact Information

Once you’ve identified the IP holder:

• Refer to Appendix B of the Terms & Conditions: api.bible/terms-and-conditions
• Or check the copyright field via the /bibles/{bibleId}  API endpoint

3. Enterprise and Custom Licensing

If your needs go beyond standard plans — such as:

• Higher API call limits
• Licensing multiple translations at scale
• Applications with more than 150,000 monthly users

Contact: support@api.bible

The team can help you explore custom or enterprise options.
