# Delete a card velocity limit

`DELETE /card-velocity-limits/{id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.lightspark.com/grid/2025-10-13`
- URL: `https://api.lightspark.com/grid/2025-10-13/card-velocity-limits/{id}`
- Auth: HTTP basic

Remove a rule managed by your platform. Other applicable controls remain in effect. Rules owned by other platforms or Lightspark return 404. Removing a rule does not change answers already recorded for earlier authorization requests. Delete and recreate are separate operations; authorizations between them use the other applicable limits, and a failed replacement does not restore the deleted rule.

## Response `204`

Rule deleted.

## Other responses

- `400`: Invalid rule or query parameters.
- `401`: Unauthorized.
- `403`: Insufficient permission.
- `404`: Card or rule not found.
- `500`: Internal service error.
- `501`: Cards are not enabled in this environment.
