Pricing
What Naijacloud costs
Naijacloud has no plans and no subscriptions. You pay for the memory, CPU and disk your services actually provision, metered hourly in Naira and drawn from a prepaid balance — so there is no card on file, no monthly minimum, and deleting a resource stops its cost immediately. Every workspace gets a usage credit each month that covers a small always-on service outright. The tables below are the whole price list, read live from the same rate card the meter charges from.
Build your setup in the calculator and read the number off. Nothing on this page is a quote — it is the rate card.

Every size, and what it costs
Prices are per month, metered hourly. A service costs the same whether it is busy or idle — you are paying for the capacity you reserved, not for the traffic it served.
Web services, static sites and cron jobs
One price per size, running continuously. Traffic does not change it.
| Size | Memory | vCPU | Per month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | 256 MB | 0.25 | ₦1,750 |
| Starter | 512 MB | 0.5 | ₦3,500 |
| Pro | 1 GB | 1 | ₦7,000 |
| Pro Max | 2 GB | 2 | ₦14,000 |
Databases — PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, MongoDB
Disk is provisioned with the instance and included in the price.

Redis and Valkey
In-memory, so the size is the memory.

The rates everything is built from
Published on purpose. Every instance price above is derived from these and the size it provisions — there is no separate table that can quietly disagree with what the meter charges, which means you can check our arithmetic.
| Resource | Unit | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Memory | per GB, per month | ₦4,500 |
| vCPU | per vCPU, per month | ₦2,500 |
| Database disk | per GB, per month | ₦90 |
| Object storage | per GB, per month | ₦20 |
| Egress | per GB leaving the region | ₦120 |
| per message sent | ₦0.60 |
Traffic between your own services inside a region — an app reading its own database or its own bucket — is not metered. Egress is charged only when it leaves the region for the public internet.
What every workspace gets free, every month
Not a trial and not a separate tier. Free services run on the same infrastructure as paid ones, with no forced sleep and no time-of-day restrictions. The credit does not roll over.
Usage credit
₦2,000
Spendable on anything metered. Enough for a small always-on web service.
Object storage
5 GB
Before per-GB metering starts.
Egress
20 GB
Out of the region. In-region traffic is never metered.
500 messages

Frequently asked
Every workspace gets a usage credit every month, plus included object storage, egress and email. The credit is enough to run a small always-on web service continuously — it does not sleep, it is not time-limited, and it runs on the same infrastructure paying customers use. The credit does not roll over.
Usage, prepaid. You top a balance up in Naira with a local card or a bank transfer, and services meter against it hourly. There is no plan to choose, no card kept on file and no invoice at the end of the month. If the balance runs out, services stop rather than the bill growing.
Services are suspended rather than deleted, and your data stays put. Top up and they come back. That is the deliberate trade of a prepaid model: you cannot be surprised by a bill, and you can be surprised by a stop, so keep an eye on the balance or leave headroom on it.
No. There is no per-seat charge at any size — a workspace costs what its services cost whether one person or ten are in it. This is one of the larger differences against platforms that bill per seat plus usage.
Not for compute. You reserve an instance size and it costs the same whether it serves ten requests a day or ten thousand, so a busy month does not produce a surprise. What does meter with usage is object storage, egress out of the region and email beyond the included allowance — all at the published unit rates above.
No. A service talking to its own database or its own bucket inside the same region is not metered, which is the traffic that dominates most applications. Egress is only charged when it leaves the region for the public internet, and every workspace has an allowance before that starts.
Every pull request gets free preview infrastructure for an initial window, then runs at a reduced multiple of the standard rates — both figures are in the allowances table above. A preview is torn down when the pull request closes, and its cost stops then.
Because a developer who wants to check our arithmetic should be able to. Every instance price on this page is derived from those five rates and the size it provisions — there is no lookup table that can quietly disagree with what you are charged. A pricing model that cannot survive being shown is not one worth defending.
No, and that is deliberate. Pricing and payment are in Naira from a local card or bank transfer, so there is no FX spread, no cross-border fee, and no international card declined at 2am. The figure you budget in January is the figure you pay in June.
Wondering how this compares to what you pay now? The comparison pages put these figures next to Render, Railway, Vercel, Fly.io, DigitalOcean and six others — with the rows we lose left in. Every Naijacloud figure there is read from this same rate card, so the two can never disagree.
Whatever you build it with, it ships here.
Bring the stack you already use. Naijacloud detects it, builds it and runs it — with pricing you can read.
