Pay as You Go

Upstash limits your monthly usage for QStash to daily 500,000 in pay-as-you-go plan. If you are expecting to exceed this limit, contact us for the Enterprise plan.

Enterprise

In the enterprise plan, we give you a fixed price for higher throughput needs. We reserve isolated resource to guarantee the scalability for high volumes. Here the Enterprise plans and prices:

Plan	Max Messages per Day	Price (per month)
Enterprise 1M	1M	$180
Enterprise 10M	10M	$420
Enterprise 100M	100M	$1800

note

Enterprise plans have a minimum term of 1 month, afterwards you can cancel any time.

Examples:

Publish to single API endpoint

1. You make a request to /v1/publish/<your-api-url>
2. We make an HTTP request to your API and it returns a 500 status code
3. After some time we retry to deliver the request and it succeeds

In total, you would be charged for 1 message.

Example "every hour"

When your schedule triggers every hour, at the end of the month this would be around 24 * 30 = 720 requests.

Publish to topic

Let's assume you have a topic and 2 endpoints (A and B) subscribed to it.

1. You make a request to /v1/publish/<your-topic>
2. We make an HTTP request to each of your endpoints.

In total this would be 2 messages.
