Cloudflare enables Pipelines billing for non-enterprise accounts

Cloudflare enabled Pipelines billing for non-enterprise accounts on 3 August 2026; ingress remains free, SQL transforms cost USD 0.04 per GB, JSON sinks USD 0.03 per GB and Parquet or Iceberg sinks USD 0.06 per GB, subject to documented included usage.

Billing enabled

→
New stateBilling is enabled for Pipelines on non-enterprise accounts; usage beyond the documented included amount can be charged at USD 0.04 per GB for SQL transforms, USD 0.03 per GB for JSON sinks and USD 0.06 per GB for Parquet or Iceberg sinks, while ingress remains free.

Who is affected

Non-enterprise Cloudflare accounts using Pipelines, especially workloads that can exceed the included Workers Paid usage.

Action required

Review Pipelines usage against included allowances and model the published per-GB transform and sink charges before scaling ingestion or transformation workloads.

Evidence boundary

The official changelog proves billing activation for non-enterprise accounts and the published unit prices. It does not establish negotiated Enterprise pricing, taxes, invoice timing beyond Cloudflare's stated next-invoice treatment, or identical commercial terms for every account.
