Pricing on Northflank

Northflank offers transparent, usage-based billing, so you can scale both horizontally and vertically with no unexpected costs. Authorised users can manage billing from the account dashboard at any time to configure alerts, update plan selection, change payment method, or get up-to-date details on current and historical resource usage. For detailed information about our different plans, please visit our pricing page .

Please note: all users must add a payment method to start creating resources on Northflank, regardless of plan selection. This is to verify user identity, and prevent malicious usage of the platform. However, with our easily configurable billing alerts - you don’t need to worry about surprise bills.

You can manage billing for multiple teams using organisations.

Create a bespoke plan with our team to meet your requirements, and enable SSO and directory sync for organisations.

Deploy for free

You can test out Northflank with our Developer Sandbox plan. This free plan allows you to deploy:

  • 2 services
  • 2 jobs
  • 1 addon
  • Up to 1 BYOC cluster

Our free tier is a great way to explore the platform, spin up hobby projects, or test new ideas. However, it should not be used for production applications.

Please note, if you choose to bring your own cloud (BYOC), you will still incur charges from your cloud provider.
