Why it shows up like this
Unreviewed registry note: A charge on your credit card statement listed as NEON* COMPUTE OVERAGE represents serverless PostgreSQL database compute hours, database branching features, or storage consumption billed by Neon Tech Inc.
Unreviewed registry note: These developer charges appear because Neon separates database storage from compute infrastructure, billing subscribers for active compute unit hours and storage gigabytes beyond base plan allowances. When web applications execute heavy database queries or fail to utilize auto-suspending compute features, monthly usage fees accrue automatically on the credit card on file.
Don’t recognize it? Common scenarios
Unreviewed registry note: Unrecognized cloud software charges usually stem from forgotten database instances left running in development environments. Monitoring active cloud resources prevents surprise bills.
- Unreviewed registry note: A PostgreSQL database remained active without auto-suspend, consuming compute unit hours.
- Unreviewed registry note: An ongoing Launch or Scale plan subscription renewed on the credit card.
- Unreviewed registry note: Database branching accumulated data storage and point-in-time recovery history.
Frequently Asked Questions
Unreviewed registry note: Configuring database auto-suspend timers reduces idle compute billing to zero. Reviewing documentation clarifies resource pricing models.
How does Neon auto-suspend save costs?
Unreviewed registry note: When auto-suspend is enabled, Neon pauses database compute after 5 minutes of inactivity, reducing compute unit billing to zero until the next query arrives.
