All you need to know about pricing
The new pricing changes have allowed for Railway to become much stabler and reduce the amount of bad actors by a lot.
The new changes include:
The free/hobby plan gets 500 execution hours per month across all projects. This means if you have 2 services, each service would get 250 hours of execution time. Crashed deployments count towards the execution hours. Note that execution hours isn’t equal to clock hours and will deduct faster if you have more then 1 service.
The developer plan can now be obtained in 2 ways: adding a credit card (which you could previously do) and get charged for usage over 5$, or by depositing credits. Depositing credits is especially useful if you have a prepaid card, as it may be the only one that works. The minimum deposit limit for buying credits is 5$. Dev plan also gives you more computational resources, including up to 8gb of ram and 100gb of disk storage.
If you have any questions, please leave them in the thread below. Please note we will not give out credits, so don’t ask for them.

you’d be fine on the free plan credit wise but you’ll run our of execution hours
Hi, my name is Sergi i started a new node.js project with mongoose, i saw that the starter plan have 500 minutes, so I would like to know how much additional money I have to add to complete the entire month so that the service is not going to be closed after 21 days
500 hours, but you should add a credit card (read above) and get rid of execution limits
What does 500 execution hours mean, exactly? I'm very new to all this and mainly deploy existing apps like umami, cusdis, and nocodb. I understand things like storage and bandwith, but I'm not familiar with execution hours
Will students and educators be offered any benefits? Not at the moment, however this may be something we explore in the future!the gh student integration is being worked on, just waiting for github to do something and can the railway team make this a railway blog or smth
i said that for a reason
Thank you so much! This was broken down in a way that is very easy to understand.
Agreed! The info listed here is essential, and I initially thought it was for Craft and not Railway (I wasn't familiar with what Craft was)
ah ok i'll clarify it in the document, craft is just a thing to make posts like this
also @candide be sure to link your discord account to railway to access the rest of the server
ok, if u feel the need to, u can delet the msg
When my parent put in the prepaid card, why did it require $1?
If I run out of that $5, will I have to pay at the time of running out of $5?
The $1 is just a verification charge to make sure the card works and is refunded immediately.
they said it was a prepaid card tho
Still works the same
oh, i recall from somewhere that prepaid cards werent supported for dev plan subscriptions
