Try this scenarioLoads these inputs into the calculator so you can change them.

A dashboard lists a namespace twice a minute. That is about 86,400 list operations, under the included million, plus the reads that follow.

On the Paid plan this model comes to $5.00. The other plan, with the same inputs, comes to $0.00. The 30-day month is the same length R2 uses in its storage example. Daily free caps are not monthly pools.

KV writes cost ten times the reads

Paid reads are $0.50 per million after 10 million. Writes, deletes, and lists are $5 per million after 1 million. The same key can be written once per second. Free daily caps fail the operation instead of billing it, and they reset at 00:00 UTC.

Read this before you trust the total

Free plan lines at $0 can still be an outage: error 1027, error 1102, or a D1 quota error. R2 above its monthly free tier is billed on both plans. Durable Object requests round up to the next million, as in Cloudflare's own Example 1, which bills 500,000 requests as 1 million.

Workers Paid minimum
$5.00

The $5 is an account minimum for Workers Paid, not a per-product fee. Included usage sits inside it.

Assumptions

  • A 30-day month and steady traffic across it.
  • Rates as published on 2026-10-25; taxes excluded.
  • The Workers Paid plan has a $5 monthly minimum. It is charged even if you use nothing, and it covers the included allowances.
  • Everything you entered fits inside the included allowances, so you pay only the minimum.
