something that puts me off subscribing is the variable compute costs on top of the fixed fee, I am new to this and I worry about a HUGE bill landing.

Here in 2025. Just paid for a Render feature so I needed to pass my CC. Definitely need a spending limit feature please!
UPDATE: I left Render for a competitor because this feature is not on the roadmap and has been requested from several users. This is an important factor in deciding which platform to use. Hope the Render team adds it soon. Would have been happy to pay for the service if this was available.

This is so needed!!! it would be very easy to implement and would make people feel more comfortable, I was surprised to not find this in my dashboard, I searched thinking I missed something but nope, We need to be able to add account wide spending limits.

We require this ASAP. This is one of the main reasons we're looking to change providers. We do not want to get hit with a surprise bill from night to day.
Let's get it before we (and others) have to leave the platform !

Render needs to get on this asap. Migrating to vercel until this is fixed. If for instance i ran the wrong cron schedule it could result in an enormous bill.
Simple capped spending.

This is a required feature. Without a spending limit I don't feel very confortable

Extremely disconcerting to realize there is no option to prevent potentially arbitrary charges. (and I can't remove all card(s) from my account, the only option would be to disable all my services if I was worried).
I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt and assume this is not an intentional omission.

It looks like this feature isn't even planned yet, according to the current Roadmap board 😔. This is really disappointing. Render has (internal) spending limits for build pipelines, which are totally controllable and predictable costs, but it doesn't have external spending limits to protect us from DDOS attacks. It's not just about hobbyists; we also need to set spending limits in our commercial projects to prevent disasters.

I know it's probably difficult to cater to the hobbyist/personal users, but I'd be willing to enter a credit card and spend money if I had confidence that my services would just stop working once I hit my personal budget.
Without any kind of spending limit, I'm stuck in a weird limbo. I can afford $50 a month, but I can't afford $500. And the fact that I have no real control over what I'll be billed means I'm spending $0 instead.

I am also waiting for that. This cloud provider seems great for my needs expect this part. Vercel.com and Railway.app already support it, why they do not?
