The only thing you are charged for are messages whereas retries are free. Below are some message examples:

  • Publish to single API endpoint. Here you would be charged for 1 message

    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 message and it succeeds
  • Schedule triggered “Every hour”; at the end of the month this would be around 24 * 30 = 720 billed messages.
  • Publishing to a topic with 2 end points (A and B) subscribed to it would be charged for 2 messages

    1. You make a request to /v1/publish/[your-api-url]
    2. We make an HTTP request to each of your endpoints.

Free Tier

The free tier includes 500 Messages per day. Afterwards we will no longer accept new requests.

Pay as you go
