boot🪙 insert coin
Prepaid, billed per second, always shown per hour and max per month. No invoices chasing you, no surprise bills — when the wallet says €5, you spend €5.
🎁 what's free, and what comes back
- 100 GB egress free, every project, every month — you only pay for traffic past that, at €0.01/GB. Ingress is always free.
- The dinghy starts at ~€2/month — the smallest boat on the ladder, plenty for a side project, webhook, or bot.
- Refer a friend, earn 5% — 5% of everything they spend lands back in your wallet, paid from our margin. They keep 100% of theirs.

🧮 chart your course
Billed per second — the monthly figure is a cap, not a commitment. Scale to zero and pay nothing.
🧾 what you'd actually pay
Computed from the rates above. Domains add the registrar's wholesale cost on top of the €2 margin shown. Billed per second — scale to zero and these drop too.

❓ questions from the crow's nest
How does per-second billing work?
You prepay a wallet; usage is deducted continuously per second of vCPU, RAM, and storage. Every price is shown per hour AND as a max-per-month cap, so there are never surprises.
What happens when my wallet runs out?
You get warnings at 7 days, 3 days, 24 hours, and 1 hour of estimated runway. At zero you get a 24-hour grace period before apps stop. Volumes, backups, and domains are kept.
Is there a free tier?
Every project gets 100 GB of egress free per month, and the smallest boat (the dinghy) costs about €2/month — a coffee.
What is a boat?
A preset size on our resource ladder: from the ¼-vCPU dinghy to the 8-vCPU tanker. You can also mix vCPU and RAM freely in ¼-vCPU and power-of-two RAM steps.
