Billing

Deckrun offers three plans. Every team starts on Free automatically when their email is verified — no credit card required.

Plans

All plans include full access to every feature: clusters, apps, domains, secrets, managed databases, logs, shell access, and role-based team permissions. The only difference between Free and paid plans is the deployment cap.

What counts as a deployment

A deployment is counted when a release reaches status: deployed — meaning the new version of your app is running and healthy. Releases that fail (status error) or that are still in progress (status deploying) do not count against your cap.

Other actions — viewing logs, opening a shell session, scaling replicas, managing secrets, listing resources — continue to work normally even when you have reached the cap.

Billing cycle

Your deployment count resets at the start of each billing cycle. The cycle follows your Stripe subscription period, which begins when you sign up and renews on the same date each month. You can see your current usage and reset date on the billing page.

What happens when you reach the cap

On the Free plan, once you have accumulated 50 successful deployments in the current cycle, further deploys are blocked until the cycle resets. If you attempt a deployment with the CLI, you will see a message like:

Monthly deployment limit reached (50/50). Cycle resets on May 15, 2026.
Upgrade to Pro or Business: https://app.deckrun.com/billing

No data is lost, and all other platform features keep working.

Upgrading and downgrading

All plan changes are handled through the Stripe Customer Portal. To open it:

1. Go to app.deckrun.com/billing.
2. Click Manage billing.
3. Choose your new plan and complete the payment details if upgrading.

Upgrades take effect immediately. Stripe prorates the charge for the remainder of the current billing period.

Downgrades take effect at the end of the current billing period. You keep the higher plan's access until the period ends, then the new cap applies from the next cycle.

Plan transitions

• Free → Pro or Business: unlimited deployments apply immediately upon upgrade. Deployments made during the Free period do not carry over to count against anything.
• Pro or Business → Free: the change takes effect at the next period boundary. A fresh 50-deployment cycle starts from that date; deployments made on the paid plan do not count against it.
• Cancellation: if a paid subscription is cancelled or a payment fails, Deckrun automatically places the team back on the Free plan so you retain platform access.
