+## Manage API Keys
+
+LibreTranslate supports per-user limit quotas, e.g. you can issue API keys to users so that they can enjoy higher requests limits per minute (if you also set `--req-limit`). By default all users are rate-limited based on `--req-limit`, but passing an optional `api_key` parameter to the REST endpoints allows a user to enjoy higher request limits.
+
+To use API keys simply start LibreTranslate with the `--api-keys` option.
+
+### Add New Keys
+
+To issue a new API key with 120 requests per minute limits:
+
+```bash
+ltmanage keys add 120
+```
+
+### Remove Keys
+
+```bash
+ltmanage keys remove <api-key>
+```
+
+### View Keys
+
+```bash
+ltmanage keys
+```

 ## FAQ
 
 ### Can I use your API server at libretranslate.com for my application in production?
 
-The API on libretranslate.com should be used for testing, personal or infrequent use. If you're going to run an application in production, please [get in touch](https://uav4geo.com/contact) to discuss options.
