We would also like this. No one wants to be stuck with a $100k DDoS bill.

I would also like this option, I'm nervous, not just about DDoS, but also about a number of other reasons I may unintentionally ring up an unexpectedly large bill. I would very much like to be able to add a cap to my spending - after which my service would just go offline, rather than being surprised by a huge bill.

+1. we will look elsewhere unless this is in place. DDoS detection may not be enough, sophisticated bot attacks that sneak around Cloudflare protection are a thing in 2025.

As our app is fintech, we are a potential target and cannot afford a sudden dump of budget due to bandwidth overages. Not something we want to explain to investors.

Quoting from https://deepstrike.io/blog/ddos-attack-statistics :

> In the first quarter of 2025, Cloudflare blocked 20.5 million DDoS attacks that's 96% of the entire volume blocked in all of 2024, signaling an unprecedented escalation in digital conflict. This isn't just a statistical increase; it's a fundamental paradigm shift in the scale and intensity of cyber threats facing organizations today.

> DDoS attacks have evolved far beyond simple acts of digital vandalism. They are now a primary tool for business disruption, extortion, and, more alarmingly, a smokescreen for more sinister activities like data theft and ransomware deployment.

We really want to use Render because the DX is so good. Please add this so we can start paying you!

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.
