Pricing plans
Being ahead of our customers expectations we apply prices that promote long term cooperation
On CloudFerro Cloud we offer services in four public Openstack based cloud instances WAW3-1, WAW3-2, WAW4-1 and FRA1-2. All public cloud have the same level of access to EO data.
In each of the clouds, the user can run similar services but they may have different prices and configurations depending on selected region.
We readily take part in projects funded by external programs, such as H2020, Horizon Europe, business incubators, European Space Agency programs, and others.
Billing models
Pay-per-use
Only pay for what you really use.
With Pay Per Use, you top up credits (called Billing Units, 1 BU = €1) on ecommerce.cloudferro.com and spend them as you go. Your balance decreases only when you actually use resources.
- Perfect if you need maximum flexibility—spin resources up or down anytime and pay only for what’s active.
- It’s ideal for testing, development, or projects where resource needs can change a lot.
Pay As You Go (PAYG)
Simple, postpaid.
With Pay As You Go, you don’t have to think about credits. Just use the services you need, and you’ll get a monthly invoice based on your actual usage. You can even set cost alerts so there are no surprises.
- Great for teams who want flexibility without prepaying.
Fixed Term (FT)
Best value for long-term projects.
If you know what you’ll need, a Fixed Term plan is the most cost-effective choice. Commit to resources for a set period (from one month to a year or more) and enjoy significantly lower rates.
- Your plan remains active for the full contract, even if you’re not currently using it.
- In return, you secure a stable, predictable, and discounted price—perfect for long-running environments with well-defined requirements.
Outlines
- Net prices in EUR.
- Prices per month, half-year, and year apply to fixed-term contracts.
- Infrastructure usage is hourly billed.

Invoicing
Clear rules. No hidden costs.
- Your billing starts the day your resources go live (not when you sign the contract).
- For Fixed Term, you’ll get one upfront invoice for the whole period.
