    Price updates

    Free API calls: Effective May 1, we’re making API calls free for all B2 Cloud Storage customers.* This removes transaction costs and makes it easier to build, scale, and run high-volume workloads subject to our standard platform usage rules and Terms of Service.

    Storage price: Also effective May 1, we are updating pricing from $6/TB to $6.95/TB.

Honestly amazing change. The free API changes are going to cut our bills in half. the 95cent increase per TB is totally reasonable.

That’s a 15% price increase. Last increase from $5 to $6 was in October 3, 2023.

Same here, the API calls have always been heavier for me than the storage costs. It of course depends upon each use case, but this is overall a win for how I've been using it.

Even with the storage increase, still way more affordable than S3 or many of the other alternatives out there.

In a normal world, price per terabyte would fall as a consequence of greater storage density and better power efficiency. A world with AI and a brewing oil crisis is not like that.

Arq + b2 has been my least-hassle mac backup storage solution by far. Even with this, it's still reasonably priced.
