Sevalla bills each company for the resources its services use: there are no plans, seats or long-term contracts. Usage is metered by the second (or by the byte for bandwidth), totaled over a monthly billing period that runs from the 1st to the 1st, and charged in USD to the company’s default card at the end of the period.

​
Billing at a glance

​
What is billed

Each usage type in this table appears by this name on the Usage page; invoices use similar product names, such as Application compute. Pricing lists every price. A process with no running instances (scaled to zero, hibernated or suspended) isn’t billed for compute, and a suspended database isn’t billed. Deleting a service stops its billing right away; usage up to the deletion stays on the period’s invoice.

​
What is free

  • Static site hosting: 100 GB of bandwidth and 600 build minutes per company per billing period, then usage-based.
  • Incoming traffic (ingress) to every service.
  • Traffic over internal connections between services in the same location.
  • Object storage operations and egress: buckets are billed for stored data only.
  • Projects, pipelines, users, API keys and webhooks.

​
Free credit

When you create your first company, Sevalla adds $20 of credit to it. Credits pay for usage before your card is charged. The credit doesn’t replace a payment method: a company needs a card and billing details on file before it can use any resources. Sevalla verifies the card with Stripe without charging it, and charges it only for usage beyond the credit.

​
See your spending

Sevalla shows spending in four places. All amounts include tax.
The Home page's Spending card with the current period, projected total, previous period, change, spend by usage type and daily bars with a forecastThe Home page's Spending card with the current period, projected total, previous period, change, spend by usage type and daily bars with a forecast
The Spending card shows the four largest usage types by name and folds the rest into Other. Click the table icon to see the numbers as a table, or Detailed usage to open the Usage page. Usage takes 6 to 8 hours to appear. To get an email before spending passes a budget, set a usage alert.

​
Who can see and manage billing

Company owners, admins and billing users see the Billing page and invoices, and update payment methods and billing details. Company owners, admins and developers see the Usage page, and only owners and admins create, update or delete usage alerts. Only the company owner can delete the company. Users and roles lists what every role can do.
