Pay as you go

$0/ month + usage

No included usage. Each application pays only for what it uses, charged proportionally from the first unit against prepaid funds.

  • US$10 of prepaid funds to start. Every top-up is US$10.
  • Unused funds carry forward and don't expire.
  • Optional automatic top-up, off by default, with a monthly limit you choose.
  • Stored files keep accruing storage and file charges while they remain stored.
  • Usage limits start at 100 GB stored, 50 GB downloaded and a $50 monthly alert. The alert is not a spending cap.

Paid overages require your explicit consent and configured quantity and spending limits. Without consent, excess use is blocked and does not create extra charges.

questions

The details matter.

More on metering and invoices in the billing docs.

What is a request unit?

A successful delivery GET, HEAD, or 304 uses one unit. An authorized upload session uses four units per file, plus one for each accepted part. A typical one-part upload uses five units. File management batches and list responses count per file, with a minimum of one. Deletion, cleanup, and internal dashboard actions are not charged.

How does Pay as you go work?

Pay as you go costs $0 a month and includes no usage. You add $10 of prepaid funds to start, and every later top-up is exactly $10. Storage, downloads, resident files and request units are charged proportionally from the first unit at the listed rates. Unused funds carry forward and don't expire. Automatic top-up is optional, off by default, and limited to a monthly amount you choose.

What happens when prepaid funds run out?

New uploads and ordinary downloads pause. Billing, deletion, cleanup and authenticated export keep working. Files are kept, with no further storage charges, for 30 days, then permanently deleted unless you add funds. Adding funds restores service. Stored files keep accruing storage and file charges while funds last, even with no uploads or downloads.

When is a subscription cheaper than Pay as you go?

It depends on all four meters, not one price point. Billing compares your Pay as you go usage with each plan's price plus any overages that usage would need, and shows an estimate when a plan would have cost less. Using more than a plan includes requires turning on overages for that plan. Uploadfile never switches your plan for you.

How do storage and live file overages work?

Only excess above the included allowance is integrated over time. Keeping 10 excess GB for half a billing period uses 5 GB-months. File count uses the same time-weighted method. Downloads and request units accumulate across the period. Fractional quantities are billed without rounding up to a full block.

Is the Free allowance per application?

The Free allowance is one shared organization pool across all Free applications. Paid applications have separate plans and invoices. A new Free grant is proportional to the remaining UTC calendar month.

Can I turn overages off?

Yes, once live data, live file count, and active upload reservations fit the included allowance. Accrued excess charges remain payable. Consumed downloads and units do not reset, so normal delivery may pause until the next period.

What happens if I cancel?

Subscription cancellation takes effect at the end of the paid period. Stopping Pay as you go takes effect immediately; remaining prepaid funds stay with the application and its paying organization, and Uploadfile support handles refund requests for unused funds. If files do not fit the Free pool, you have 30 days of authenticated export and cleanup before purge. Cancellation is honored even when you are over capacity.

Are limits instant spending caps?

Upload admission uses reservations. Delivery measurements can arrive late, so download controls and prepaid balance checks are not an instantaneous provider cost cap. No overage consent means no extra subscription charges, including delayed measurement tails. The four quantity controls govern usage. A spending alert is not a guaranteed charge ceiling.
