At QUIC.cloud, we’ve always worked to keep powerful services affordable. Over time, though, the adjustments we made along the way added up to a pricing structure that was more complicated than it needed to be. Between quota, regional bandwidth, credit, and the tier system, it could be difficult to understand what services cost, let alone predict your monthly expenses.
So, we listened to your feedback. The result is our new plan-based pricing structure. Every month, one plan, one payment. Easy peasy. No longer will you need to purchase credits to buy quota or bandwidth. Everything will be included in one simple monthly fee.
The new plans will go live on November 10, 2026, but we are laying the groundwork today with some changes that take effect immediately.
New monthly allowances for online services, starting today
Goodbye, complicated free monthly quota system! As of today (October 6, 2026), all free quota has been simplified and changed to the following for everyone:
- Image optimization: 100 images
- Page optimization (CCSS, UCSS, VPI): 20 requests
- LQIP: 20 requests
This is your free quota for October. It expires on October 31, 2026, and renews at the same levels on November 1, 2026.
Daily limits on usage apply to all free domains, as they do now. If your domain has a Pay-As-You-Go balance or an existing subscription, daily limits don’t apply. Daily limits end when the new plans begin on November 10.
Free quota ends then, too, unless you stay on the new Free plan. Paid plans don’t need free quota, since they have their own optimization allowances.
From November 10: one plan per domain
Starting November 10, 2026, you’ll be able to choose from a selection of monthly plans that cover both CDN and Online Services. The existing CDN-only Free Plan and Standard Plan will be discontinued.
The new plans (Free, Basic, Pro, Business, and Enterprise) are designed to cover a wide range of needs and pay points. You can choose a different plan for each of your domains, if you like. They all come with an amount of CDN bandwidth, and an optimization pool shared by image optimization, page optimization and LQIP.
What happens if you exceed your CDN or optimization allowance?
- CDN: You keep your plan’s features, but your domain moves to our smaller US/EU network for the rest of the month.
- Optimization: Optimization pauses until your allowance renews the next month.
If you want to keep going, you can buy a Pack at any time to add extra CDN bandwidth or optimization for your domain. Packs never expire.
Your domains stay on Free unless you choose a plan. There is no CDN bandwidth cap on Free. It runs on a smaller network of US and EU nodes.
On every plan you can get your home page optimized once a week at no extra cost!
Security on every plan. Every plan, including Free, includes our new Intelligent Anti-Hack protection: AI-based defense that blocks attacks at our firewall, before they reach your site.
- Free uses QUIC.cloud’s fixed security settings.
- Under Attack mode, Maintenance mode and custom security settings need Basic or above.
- Pro and Business add Bots Management, Content-Security-Policy, blocking by referrer, request method and URL, and redirect rules.
If your domain is on Free, your saved security settings won’t apply. We’ll save them, though, and apply them again if you upgrade.
We’re still finalizing the optimization allowances for each plan, but you can find pricing and other details for each plan on our plan details page. We’ll add more information there as it becomes available.
What happens to what you have now
- Pay-As-You-Go balance on a domain stays with that domain and is used after the plan’s monthly allowance.
- Existing subscriptions end on November 9, 2026. Their November renewal won’t be refunded; instead, we’ll add extra Pay-As-You-Go quota to the domain. New subscriptions are no longer available.
- Account credit moves to your billing account as credit on November 10. You’ll be able to use it to pay for plans and packs.
Conclusion
We are excited about investing in new and better services for you, like Intelligent Anti-Hack protection, and Optimax–a whole-page optimization service that helps you achieve the maximum page speed score. We hope these billing changes will allow us to continue to introduce new features like these in a sustainable way!
We will continue to update our plan-based billing doc, as we finalize more details. If you have any questions, we’re here to help! You can submit a ticket from your QUIC.cloud Dashboard or send email to support@quic.cloud to get in touch with the support team.
