Plans

Surge has two plans, both account-level: Free and Pro. Every project and domain on your account is on your account's plan—there's nothing to choose per project.

Free—actually free

The core of Surge costs nothing, without trial windows or project caps:

• Unlimited projects and domains, with publishing under rate limits that apply to every plan
• Custom domains
• Managed SSL certificates, provisioned automatically, and forced HTTPS
• The CDN, clean URLs, revisions (the last 100 per domain), and teams
• Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS file or config --cors)
• Private domains (--private), served only to the people who can publish them

What Pro adds

Pro unlocks exactly two features:

• Password protection & protected paths (AUTH file)
• Redirects (ROUTER file)

Current pricing is listed by the CLI itself—surge plan shows each plan with its price and perks—and on the pricing page. The bill is the plan price: no overage charges, ever.

Upgrading

You don't have to decide in advance. Publish a project that uses a Pro feature—an AUTH file, say—and the CLI walks you through upgrading right in the publish, card entry included. Or manage it explicitly:

surge plan            # interactive picker in the terminal
surge plan --web      # checkout in the browser
surge plan --manage   # plan, card & invoices in the browser

Upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time; surge plan --manage opens a private billing portal with your invoices. See Account & Plans for the commands in detail.
