Systems and methods for adaptively adjusting a transaction rate at a mobile network node. A first mobile network client node receives configuration parameters including an initial transaction rate, a step up rate, a step down rate, a minimum rate, a maximum rate, an evaluation time period, a step up response time threshold, a step down response time threshold, a step up threshold percentage of responses, and a step down threshold percentage of responses. Responses associated with communications with the server node are received during a first time period associated with the evaluation time period. A percentage of the received responses being less than the step up response time threshold and a percentage of the received responses being greater than the step down response time threshold are determined. An initial transaction rate is increased by the step up rate or decreased by the step down rate based on the determined percentages.
