Cloud Provider | Tencent Cloud

Pricing

Tencent Cloud offers a range of pricing models and services tailored to different business needs. Their free tier includes over 40 cloud product packages, allowing users to explore services at no initial cost, such as 1,000 free emails per account—the pay-as-you-go model bills users based on actual usage, offering flexibility with no upfront commitments. For businesses with more extensive resource needs, Tencent Cloud's tiered pricing model provides discounts, reducing costs as usage increases. Cloud Object Storage (COS) services are designed for high-volume storage and disaster recovery. At the same time, security solutions like Web Application Firewall (WAF) and Anti-Cheat Expert (ACE) cater to applications and gaming. However, detailed pricing for these services is available directly on Tencent Cloud's pricing page.
