AUTH NONECORS ✓AGENT ✓HTTPS ✓COMMERCIAL ?

The get_memes endpoint returns Imgflip's current top ~100 meme templates with names, image URLs, dimensions and caption counts. It's fully keyless and CORS-open; actually rendering a captioned meme requires a free Imgflip account. Useful for meme pickers and template galleries.

Imgflip: common questions

Is Imgflip free to use?

Yes — Imgflip is a free fun API. Free tier: Free (get_memes is public; captioning needs a free account). Whether the free tier allows commercial use is unclear — check the provider docs.

Does Imgflip need an API key?

No — Imgflip needs no API key or signup. You can call it straight away; rate limits still apply (Unpublished).

Can I call Imgflip from the browser?

Yes — Imgflip returns CORS headers over HTTPS, so front-end code can fetch it directly with no backend proxy. Use the fetch snippet on this page, or hit "Run live" to try it now.

Is Imgflip up right now?

As of our last scheduled check, Imgflip is unmonitored. We re-probe it every sweep — the status badge and uptime chart above always show the latest.
