Pricing
Pay for what you reserve, by the second. No base fee, no per-seat charge, no minimum term.
All prices exclude VAT; the amount in brackets includes 21% VAT, the rate for customers in NL. Elsewhere in the EU you pay your own country's rate, or no VAT with a validated VAT number (reverse charge); outside the EU no VAT applies. Monthly figures are for a 730-hour month. Machine-readable rate card.
Start free
Every new organisation gets its first 1 month free, per environment, so preview and live each get the full allowance:
- CPU: 2 vCPU
- Memory: 4 GiB
- Storage: 10 GB
Staying inside that costs nothing and needs no payment method. After the free month, the same size costs €20.14 per environment per month (€24.37 incl. 21% VAT.).
Add a payment method within 1 month of the free month ending, or the organisation's projects that run a cluster are deleted. We email you when the free month ends and again a week before. Your repositories stay where they are, and so does a project that is only a static site (see below).
Compute
| Resource | Price | Free per environment |
|---|---|---|
| CPU | €4.3362 per vCPU-month (€5.2468 incl. 21% VAT.) | 2 vCPU |
| Memory | €2.2067 per GiB-month (€2.6701 incl. 21% VAT.) | 4 GiB |
| Storage | €0.2628 per GB-month (€0.318 incl. 21% VAT.) | 10 GB |
Billing measures what an environment reserves, not what it uses, because reserved capacity is what the platform holds for you. Half a month costs half as much.
Object storage
An environment that asks for object storage in its config gets two S3-compatible buckets in its own region: a private one, with the key already in its cluster, and a public one its site is served from. You pay for what the buckets store, measured by the hour, and for requests per million. The "free every month" column is yours for good, not only in the free month.
| Resource | Price | Free every month | Free in your free month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stored data | €0.03 per GiB-month (€0.0363 incl. 21% VAT.) | 1 GiB per environment | 5 GiB per environment |
| Reads (class B requests) | €0.72 per million (€0.8712 incl. 21% VAT.) | 1,000,000 requests per environment | 1,000,000 requests per environment |
| Writes and lists (class A requests) | €9.00 per million (€10.89 incl. 21% VAT.) | 100,000 requests per environment | 100,000 requests per environment |
Deletes are free, and so is the traffic out of the buckets.
Static sites
A static site is an environment declared static: {} in its config: no cluster,
its files served straight from its bucket. It reserves no compute, so it costs only what the
object storage table meters, and within the "free every month" column that is nothing, for
as long as you like, with no payment method needed. Above it the usual rates apply when a
payment method is on file. Without one, a site that passes its monthly request allowance
answers "Site paused" for the rest of the month and serves again when the month turns. A
static site is never deleted for lack of a payment method.

What you don't pay for
- No base fee. A project with nothing deployed costs nothing.
- Sleeping previews. A preview environment sleeps after 30 minutes of inactivity and is not billed while asleep. The next push wakes it.
- Deployments and builds. Deploying is not metered; only the capacity an environment holds is.
Billing
- Invoiced monthly, in EUR.
- A total below €0.50 carries to the next invoice rather than being charged.
- Live environments run continuously and bill continuously; preview environments bill only while awake.
- Going above the free tier needs a payment method on file. Without one, a deployment larger than the free allowance is refused before anything is applied, rather than running up a bill.
Enterprise
Need a cluster of your own, Basable in your own data centre, or ISO 27001 certification? The enterprise page describes the options. Those setups are agreed per organisation and invoiced monthly; write to enterprise@basable.com.
