Cloudflare Pages Fee

[idigmh397]

Hello,

I am looking into using Cloudflare Pages and have a few questions I’d like to clarify.

I understand that if I switch to the paid model (at $5 per month), there is an additional charge of $0.50 per million requests. Is this correct?
2-1. I read in a post that the $0.50 charge per million requests only applies when using Functions, and other usage is free. Is this accurate?
2-2. If the cost only arises when using Functions, when are Functions executed? I plan to build a static site with Next.js and host it on Pages without any special configuration for Functions. Does this mean that Functions will not be invoked in my case? I don’t intend to connect any authentication or middleware services. Could you please explain how and when Functions are called, and what constitutes a “function”? Is accessing the web page considered part of the Functions?

How many projects can one account have when using Pages? I’ve seen mentions of a limit of 500 projects. Is this true?

Are there any storage costs associated with Pages? If I create multiple projects, will there be no additional charges? I noticed there’s a file size limit of 25MB and up to 20,000 files are allowed. Does this mean I won’t incur any storage costs up to 50,000MB?

Thank you for your assistance.

If using Functions, Function invocations will be charged yes.

Yes. Only Functions is charged. Static assets remain free (and always will)

Correct.

@idigmh397

A Function is a way for you to execute server-side code. You can read about Functions here: Functions · Cloudflare Pages docs

@idigmh397

Is accessing the web page considered part of the Functions?

Only if the Function is invoked there (such as for SSR).

There is a soft limit of 100 (as mentioned on the docs: Limits · Cloudflare Pages docs) but this can be raised. The soft limit is simply to prevent abuse.

Nope.

Correct.
