Getting started

Can I test the fund data API without signing up?

Yes: GET /api/v1/demo/funds/{isin} returns the full JSON for any fund already in the store without a key, and the free ISIN validator, ETF overlap and portfolio look-through tools run on the same data.Updated 12 September 2026 · by FundFacts API

Short answer

Yes. GET https://fundfactsapi.com/api/v1/demo/funds/{isin} returns the complete payload for any fund that is already in the store, with no key, at 30 calls a minute per IP. It never loads a fund nobody has requested before (that returns 404 not_cached), so it is for seeing the shape, not for production. The free ETF overlap and portfolio look-through tools on this site run on the same data in the browser.

The demo endpoint

bash
curl -s https://fundfactsapi.com/api/v1/demo/funds/IE00B4L5Y983 | jq '{name, asOf: .data.dataAsOf, ter: .data.headlineMetrics.ter, risk: .data.riskRating, profile: .data.profile, top: .data.topHoldings[:5]}'

The JSON is identical to the authenticated endpoint's (isin, name, cached, generatedAt, expiresAt, data) minus the plan and quota fields. IE00B4L5Y983 (iShares Core MSCI World UCITS ETF) and IE00B3RBWM25 are always loaded; most large UCITS ETFs are.

Limits: 30 calls a minute per IP, and a 404 not_cached for a fund not yet in the store. A free key (15 lookups a month) lifts both.

The live demo on the home page

The home page runs a lookup in the browser and shows the response, and the documentation embeds the full sample payload with every field explained.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a credit card to try it?

No. The Free plan is 15 lookups per month with no card; sign up with an e-mail address or Google and the key is shown in the dashboard.

Which ISINs work?

Any share class of a UCITS fund, ETF, money-market fund or open-end fund whose management company publishes a product page, factsheet and KID. Each share class has its own ISIN and is looked up on its own. Stocks, bonds and indices are not funds and return 404 fund_not_found.

Try it on your own ISINs

One request returns key facts, holdings, risk and performance as JSON. Free plan, no card.
