  American Greetings does not publish public API plans or pricing. Retail and licensing relationships are governed by trade agreements rather than a public API price list. This artifact remains a scaffold pending publication of a public API commercial offering.
notes: >-
  Re-checked 2026-09-02: crawled all 20 pages in the corporate sitemap and the 586-route
  /wp-json/ index; there is no pricing page, no plans surface and no machine-readable price
  catalogue anywhere on a reachable American Greetings host. plan_count is 0 as a measured result.
  American Greetings is a consumer-products company; it does not publish a public API developer portal with documented pricing or rate limits. Retail trading-partner EDI and Creatacard / SmashUps consumer products are sold direct rather than via a priced API. Reconcile if a public API is launched.
