Runpod offers custom pricing plans for large scale and enterprise workloads. Contact our sales team to learn more.
Pods are billed by the second for compute and storage, with no fees for data ingress or egress. Find the latest GPU pricing on the Runpod console during Pod deployment.

​
Pricing options

​
On-demand

Pay-as-you-go pricing. Resources are dedicated to your Pod and cannot be displaced by other users.
You must have at least one hour’s worth of credits for your selected configuration to deploy an on-demand instance.

​
Savings plans

Commit to a 3-month or 6-month term upfront for significant discounts on compute costs. When you stop a Pod, the savings plan automatically applies to your next deployment of the same GPU type.
Savings plans only cover GPU compute costs—storage costs are billed at standard rates. Storage charges continue to accrue on stopped Pods. If your balance reaches $0, your Pods stop: those with a network volume are preserved, while those without one are terminated and their data cannot be recovered. Plans are non-refundable and have fixed expiration dates.

​
Storage pricing

Storage is billed per-second for container and volume disks, and hourly for network volumes. You are not charged if the host is unavailable.
Runpod is not designed for long-term cloud storage. Back up critical data to your local machine or a dedicated storage provider.

​
Account limits

  • Minimum balance: Pods are automatically stopped when your account balance reaches $0. Pods with a network volume are stopped and their data is preserved, while Pods without a network volume are terminated and their data cannot be recovered. To avoid interruptions, enable low balance notifications or set up auto-pay.
  • Spend limit: Default limit of $80/hour across all resources. Contact support to increase.
