Pricing FAQ

What if my project needs more than the One-Time package?

We scope every project individually. The starting prices reflect typical projects — a simple app deployment on a single cloud provider. Complex setups (multi-region, Kubernetes, microservices) will be quoted after we understand your requirements. No surprises.

Can I start with a One-Time deployment and switch to a retainer?

Yes — many clients do exactly that. We deploy first, then continue with ongoing support once the app is live and growing.

Do you charge hourly?

No. We quote fixed prices for defined scopes of work. You'll know the cost before we start. For retainers, it's a flat monthly fee.

What payment methods do you accept?

Bank transfer and credit card. We invoice at project start for one-time work, and monthly for retainers.
