Cloudflare launches beta spend limits for Workers
Understand this story
Cloudflare has launched a beta version of Spend Management for all pay-as-you-go (PayGo) customers, initially supporting Workers and Durable Objects, with configurable spending limits and multi-level alert thresholds. Once the limit is reached, new invocations of the product are rejected: for Workers, for example, Cron Triggers and Queue consumer invocations are paused, but static assets continue to be served. Cloudflare says other products will support it subsequently.

- Cloudflare BlogIntroducing Spend Management: Spending limits and alerts for Cloudflare
Cloudflare has launched Spend Management in Beta for pay-as-you-go customers, starting with Workers and Durable Objects, letting users set spending thresholds and have Cloudflare pause activity when limits are reached. Limits can be configured via the dashboard, cf CLI, or REST API, with email alerts at chosen thresholds and near real-time (under 10 minutes) cost visibility. Enforcement is asynchronous, propagating caps through Quicksilver so requests never wait on the Rating Engine, and more products plus application- and agent-based budgets are planned.
