Pricing & Billing
How it works
Hathora's pricing is designed to be accessible for all our customers, ranging from hobbyists to AAA game studios. Our platform helps you utilize compute resource efficiently in order to minimize wasteful spend. We know that forecasting cloud costs can be daunting, so Hathora provides consistent pricing across regions with no fixed costs.
Plans
Hathora employs a purely usage-based pricing model. There are no fixed costs and you only pay for the CPU and network resources you consume.
When selecting a plan, you must evaluate how much CPU and memory is required to run an instance of your game server. Hathora offers the following four plan sizes that you can pick from:
| Tiny | Small | Medium | Large | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CPU | shared core | 1 core | 2 cores | 4 cores |
| Memory | 1GB | 2GB | 4GB | 8GB |
| Plan price | $0.04 | $0.08 | $0.16 | $0.32 |
| Egress bandwidth/GB | $0.12 | $0.12 | $0.12 | $0.12 |
Hathora runs latest generation AMD x86 CPU processors across all of our regions to deliver consistent performance to your gamers.
Hathora grants customers $500 in credit on sign up (valid for 24 months) to evaluate and develop on our platform.
How to calculate your bill
At the end of each month, Hathora calculates the cost for each application in your account as follows:
totalCost = (totalCpuHours X cpuHourlyCost) + ($0.12 X totalBandwidthGb)
totalCpuHours= number of hours a process is active, summed across all processes running in that monthtotalBandwidthGb= total outbound bandwidth, summed across all processes running in that monthcpuHourlyCost= the hourly CPU cost based on selected plan size
Example Scenario
Consider the following game:
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| matches per month | 100K |
| match length | 0.25hrs |
| bandwidth per match | 0.01GB |
Assuming this game runs on a Small plan ($0.08/hr active) and can run 5 roomsPerProcess, you can expect the following average costs for a match:
cpu= (($0.08/hr X 0.25hrs) / 5roomsPerProcess) = $0.004/matchbandwidth= (0.01GB X $0.12/GB) = $0.0012/matchtotal= $0.0025/match + $0.0012/match = $0.0052/match
Given 100K matches per month, your bill would be $520/month.
Limits
Hathora has the following default limits. If you require higher limits for any of the following features, please reach out to contact@hathora.dev.

|---|---|
| Container registry size per region | 10GB of most recent containers |
| Docker build minutes | 200mins/month |
| Logs | 20GB of history |
| Metrics | 72hrs of history |
Billing Details
Every month we calculate your bill based on the aforementioned calculations. We will first deduct your bill from your remaining credit. Once your credit is fully exhausted, Hathora will send an invoice at the end of the month to the account holders email. You will have 30 days to complete the payment to retain services.
