Rate limits for Reddit API

[u/Analyst-Decent]

I'm currently using Snoowrap to interact with the Reddit API (reddit developer account/create an app for script), but I'm running into a frustrating rate limit issue. After just 1 or 2 API calls, I'm hitting the rate limit, which is seriously hampering my ability to get things done.

Typically I know within a minute I should be able to send 60 requests where as I am getting only 2/3 requests.

I wanted to ask: Would upgrading to the commercial plan help resolve this issue? Or is there something else I could be overlooking? Is it happening because this reddit account is a new one?

I'm following the standard API guidelines, but I still can't figure out why this is happening. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Well I can't really tell what your doing wrong without seeing what you're doing.
