Cloudflare R2 Pricing in 2026: What You Actually Pay
Cloudflare R2 pricing in 2026 charges for storage and operations but never for egress: Standard storage is $0.015/GB-month, Class A writes $4.50/million, Class B reads $0.36/million, with a permanent free tier of 10 GB plus 1M/10M operations. Free egress is the whole pitch, and it moves your bill onto operations, not gigabytes. Below: three real 30-day bills versus Amazon S3 and Backblaze B2, and the Infrequent Access trap that doubles a write-heavy bill.
