Beeceptor: free plan limits, pricing and alternatives

Beeceptor's free plan allows 50 requests a day per endpoint with 3 mock rules on a public endpoint, and paid plans are $10, $25 and $99 a month (checked October 29, 2026). Below is the full plan table, the caveats on free endpoints, how mock rules differ from plain webhook inspection, and alternatives broken down by the job you need done.

Beeceptor free plan limits and pricing

The Beeceptor free plan gives you 50 requests a day per endpoint, 3 mock rules, a public endpoint and 1 MB payloads with no signup.

Stored request history starts at the Team plan ($25 a month), while Individual ($10 a month) and Team raise the payload limit to 10 MB. According to Beeceptor pricing, annual billing takes 20% off, and on the Scale plan ($99 a month) extra requests beyond 1M cost $40 per additional 1M.

Free endpoint caveats

• Free endpoints are public by default, and anyone with the dashboard URL can view, manage and inspect the traffic, so don't send real customer data or secrets to one.
• Unclaimed free endpoints are automatically cleaned up 30 days after creation, and claiming one with an account extends retention to 90 days from its original creation date.
• The 50 requests a day limit counts per endpoint.
• Request payloads are capped at 1 MB on the Free plan.
• Free traffic is shown live only, and stored request history starts at the Team plan.

In our live check on October 29, 2026, a POST to a <name>.free.beeceptor.com subdomain that hadn't been set up on the website returned 404 with the text "nothing is configured here. Create a mock server on Beeceptor.com", so you have to create the endpoint on beeceptor.com before sending traffic to it.

Mock rules vs plain inspection

Beeceptor is a mock server first: you write rules that return the status, headers and body you define, with dynamic and conditional responses and CRUD routes on every plan, and AI spec-to-mock from the Team plan. That's the right tool when your own code needs a fake API to call and get specific responses back.

Webhook inspection is a different job. A third-party sender posts to you, you need to see the exact payload and headers that arrived, and you don't need mock rules at all.

Free webhooks.sh bins always reply with HTTP 200 and a small JSON body like {"ok":true,"delivery_id":"..."}, and can't return custom responses, so they won't replace a mock server. What they do give you for inspection is no signup, 100 requests a day per bin, and a private view URL like https://view.webhooks.page/b/<bin>#<view key> where the ingest URL (https://<bin>.webhooks.page/) alone gives no read access. Any header whose name contains authorization, cookie, key, token or secret is redacted in the viewer and API, while signature headers like Stripe-Signature or X-Hub-Signature-256 stay visible.

Beeceptor alternatives

If you're looking for a Beeceptor alternative, pick the tool by the job you need done.

• Use Mockoon when your mock APIs should run on your own machine or in CI via its CLI or Docker image with no account, keeping in mind a local mock isn't reachable by an outside webhook sender without a tunnel.
• Use httpbin when you only need fixed behaviors like /status/<code> or /delay/<n> up to 10 seconds with no setup.
• Use webhooks.sh when you need to capture and inspect what external webhooks send without exposing the traffic on a public dashboard.

For more options focused on capturing incoming requests, see our webhook.site comparison and our guide to the best webhook testing tools.

Try a webhook bin

1. Create a free bin in your browser at view.webhooks.page or from your terminal with curl -X POST https://webhooks.sh/v1/bins.
2. Paste the ingest_url (https://<bin>.webhooks.page/) into your webhook sender.
3. Watch requests arrive live in the browser with their method, path, query string, headers and body.

You can claim a free bin before its 48-hour expiry with a free Google sign-in to keep the same URL, get 30 days of rolling history for new requests, and hold up to 25 claimed bins on one account. If you need a permanent setup, the Solo plan ($12 a month, see pricing) gives you a persistent named endpoint on webhooks.host with 250,000 requests per billing period, forwarding to up to 3 HTTPS URLs, and the wsh CLI, which relays deliveries to localhost (wsh listen <endpoint> --to localhost:3000) and replays captured requests.

# Create a free bin (no signup)
curl -X POST https://webhooks.sh/v1/bins

# Send a test request to it
curl -X POST https://<bin>.webhooks.page/orders \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"id":"ord_123","status":"paid"}'
