Questions
What do I pay for?
The seconds a sandbox is running, at the rate for its size. Memory and disk are included. Saved snapshots past your plan's included count cost $0.10 per GB-month. The credential proxy is free.
Is there a free trial?
No. There is no free trial and no starter credit. Your first top-up is the trial: $5 buys 166 hours of small or 83 hours of default.
What changes for a new account?
Until you have paid $20 in total, and your first payment is 7 days old, you can run 2 sandboxes at once, only in the small and default sizes, and sandboxes stop when your balance reaches $0. Auto top-up is off during this period. After it, you get your plan's limits.
What happens when my balance runs out?
After the new-account period, sandboxes keep running for up to 24 hours while you owe at most $10 (a quarter of the monthly fee if you have a plan), then they stop. A stop takes a final snapshot, unless you created the sandbox with snapshots off. Then a stop erases it.
Is there a minimum?
No. You can add from $5 up to $100,000 at a time, and the money never expires. On Team and Business, the monthly fee comes back as usage credit, and unused credit expires at the end of the month.
Can I limit what we spend?
Organization owners can set a monthly dollar cap for each member. Caps for a single sandbox or the whole organization are not built yet.
Does the rate of a running sandbox change?
No. A sandbox keeps the rate it was created with. A fork is a new sandbox, so it gets the current rate.
Is a plan priced per seat?
No. A plan belongs to an account, personal or organization, and an organization can have any number of members.
What do the plans change?
Limits: how many sandboxes you can run at once, how many you can start per minute, hour and day, and how many saved snapshots are free. Every plan gets the same rates and the same safety features.
