How the free tier works
Starter is a permanent free plan. You can sign up without a card and keep one project running indefinitely; resources on Starter are pooled across free accounts and deprioritized when Basic and Pro builds are in the queue. To unlock per-project Postgres, custom domains, or higher memory, add a card and pick Basic or Pro — billing starts immediately, no 30-day countdown to forget about. Cancel any time at the end of your current billing period.
About the free domain
Basic signups (monthly or annual) earn a free .COM or .CA domain registration through Canner. Basic annual and Pro (either interval) extend that to .QUEBEC as well. We register the name with our Canadian registrar partner and renew it for the duration of your plan; you keep ownership. If you cancel, you can transfer the domain out with the standard registrar handoff procedure.
