Atlassian Statuspage's public pages run from a free plan to $1,499 a month across five tiers. Private, authenticated pages sit on a separate ladder from $79 to $1,499 a month, audience-specific pages start at $300 a month, and every page you publish is its own subscription. Prices are Atlassian's published US dollar list prices, checked on 3 September 2026.
This guide is for anyone pricing up a status page before committing, and for anyone already paying for Statuspage whose bill has moved without the product changing. Both need the same things: the tiers, the caps inside them, and the exact points where the price steps up.
Statuspage pricing tiers: public pages
The public-page ladder is what people usually mean by "Statuspage pricing". There are five tiers at flat monthly prices, and each carries three caps: how many subscribers can receive updates, how many of your own people can log in, and how many metrics the page can display.
| Tier | Per month | Subscribers | Team members | Metrics | What the tier opens |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 100 | 2 | 2 | Email, Slack and Teams notifications; REST API. No custom domain. |
| Hobby | $29 | 250 | 5 | 5 | Custom domain and basic customisation. Still no SMS or webhook subscriber notifications. |
| Startup | $99 | 1,000 | 10 | 10 | SMS and webhook subscriber notifications, custom CSS, team-member SSO. |
| Business | $399 | 5,000 | 25 | 25 | Custom CSS, HTML and JavaScript, component subscriptions, role-based access control. |
| Enterprise | $1,499 | 25,000 | 50 | 50 | Yearly purchase orders and invoicing. |
Atlassian Statuspage public-page plans, US dollars, monthly billing. Prices checked 3 September 2026, from atlassian.com/software/statuspage/pricing.
One thing worth crediting: the top tier carries a published price, and the audience-specific increments are documented too. Plenty of vendors put a "contact sales" wall in front of anything above $399, so this is an unusually easy bill to model in advance.
SMS is included in the subscription rather than metered per message, per Atlassian's community answer, so there is no per-message charge to budget for. What costs money is the ability to send them at all, which starts on Startup at $99.
Is Statuspage free?
Yes. The Free plan gives you a public status page with incidents, components, maintenance windows and up to 100 email, Slack or Teams subscribers, with two team members able to log in and post. For many teams the binding limit is the custom domain rather than the subscriber count: a branded status.yourcompany.com starts at $29 a month on Hobby.
Statuspage private page pricing
A private page is one your customers or staff have to authenticate to see. It is a separate product line with its own ladder and its own price, and buying a public plan does not include one.
| Tier | Per month | Authenticated subscribers | Team members | Metrics |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | $79 | 50 | 5 | 5 |
| Growth | $249 | 300 | 15 | 15 |
| Corporate | $599 | 1,000 | 35 | 35 |
| Enterprise | $1,499 | 5,000 | 50 | 50 |
Atlassian Statuspage private-page plans, US dollars, monthly billing. Prices checked 3 September 2026.
The unit here is a viewer with a login rather than an email address on a mailing list, so the counts are not comparable to the public ladder. The steps are steep in the middle: authenticated viewer 51 moves you from Starter to Growth, $170 a month more, and viewer 301 moves you to Corporate, another $350. Our stack cost calculator models public pages only, so the private-page arithmetic here is done by hand from the table above.
Audience-specific pages
The third ladder serves a different page to different groups of customers from one configuration. Tier 1 is $300 a month for 500 users, 10 groups, 25 team members and 30 metrics. Tiers 2 to 10 add $200 a month each, tiers 11 to 30 add $100 each, and tiers 31 and above add $50 each, so tier 2 is $500 a month, tier 10 is $2,100 and tier 30 is $4,100. Atlassian's own documentation is blunt about it: "There is no flexibility to these tiers and their allocations." This is deep functionality, and the part of Statuspage with the fewest real substitutes.
Currency and annual billing, for a UK buyer
Atlassian publishes US dollar prices only. There is no pound list for Statuspage, so a UK team is comparing a dollar price that moves with the exchange rate against pound-priced tools. Annual billing exists, but Atlassian's billing documentation says it needs a signed order form rather than a self-serve switch, and no annual discount is published.
What actually moves your Statuspage bill
Two numbers do the work, and neither of them describes the product. The first is how many people subscribe to your status page, which grows as your customer base grows. The second is how many of your own people need to log in and post an update, which grows as you hire. Cross either cap and the next tier is the only option, and the page itself is identical on both sides of the line.
| Crossing | From | To | Change per month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Subscriber 101 | Free | Hobby, $29 | +$29 (and you gain a custom domain) |
| Subscriber 251 | Hobby, $29 | Startup, $99 | +$70 |
| Subscriber 1,001 | Startup, $99 | Business, $399 | +$300 |
| Subscriber 5,001 | Business, $399 | Enterprise, $1,499 | +$1,100 |
| Team member 3 | Free | Hobby, $29 | +$29 |
| Team member 6 | Hobby, $29 | Startup, $99 | +$70 |
| Team member 11 | Startup, $99 | Business, $399 | +$300 |
| Team member 26 | Business, $399 | Enterprise, $1,499 | +$1,100 |
Trigger points on the public-page ladder, derived from the tier table above. US dollars, monthly. Prices checked 3 September 2026.
The third axis is pages. Each page you publish is its own subscription on its own ladder, and an Atlassian community answer puts it plainly: "You will need to pay for each page separately." A public page for customers and an internal page for staff are billed separately, and if the internal one needs a login it sits on the private ladder rather than being a second copy of the public one.
Why is Statuspage so expensive?
Because the price scales on axes that track your business rather than the work the product does. A page serving 1,001 subscribers publishes the same incidents, in the same layout, with the same editor, as one serving 999, and costs $300 a month more. The same applies to hiring: a colleague who needs to post an update during an incident can cost $70 or $300 a month depending on the tier. A four-star G2 reviewer put the pattern well, quoted in Hyperping's teardown: "since it's subscriber based pricing, costs grow as the business grows. While it makes business sense for Statuspage, the service offering does not increase as the price scales." There is a second structural reason: Statuspage does not monitor anything, so whatever tells you to post an update is a separate subscription.
Set against that, reviewers do not complain that it falls over. They describe it as dependable and simple to operate while an incident is running, which is the moment that counts, and it carries Atlassian's compliance posture into procurement without an argument. Many teams pay the price knowingly and get what they came for.
Three worked examples
Each of these is list-price arithmetic from the tables above, with no negotiated rate and no discount assumed.
A public page, 300 subscribers, six people who need a login. Hobby caps at 250 subscribers and five team members, so both caps are already broken. Startup at $99 a month covers 1,000 subscribers and 10 team members, and beyond the headroom it adds SMS and webhook subscriber notifications, custom CSS and SSO for the team.
The same, plus an internal page for 40 staff. The internal page needs a login, so it is a private page: Starter at $79 a month covers 50 authenticated viewers. Total $178 a month, and that is the pages alone. No monitoring is included, so whatever tells you to post the update is a separate subscription on top.
A public page with 1,200 subscribers. Startup caps at 1,000, so this is Business at $399 a month, which is $300 more than Startup for the same page. Business does add real capability: full HTML and JavaScript customisation, component-level subscriptions so customers can follow only the parts they use, and role-based access control. Whether those are worth $300 a month is a judgement about the page; the tier jump happens either way, on subscriber count alone.
How much does a status page cost?
Widening out from one vendor, the market sits in reasonably clear bands.
| Band | What you get | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| $0, self-hosted | You run it; no subscriber engine unless you build one | Cachet (open source), Upptime (GitHub Actions and Pages) |
| $0, hosted with caps | A real hosted page, capped, and usually unbranded only on paid tiers | Statuspage Free (100 subscribers, no custom domain), Instatus Starter (200 subscribers, no custom domain), OneUptime Free (100 subscribers), Better Stack Free (1,000 subscribers and a custom domain, bundled with monitoring) |
| $20 to $30 | Custom domain, useful subscriber counts | Instatus Pro $20, OneUptime Growth $22, Hyperping Essentials $29, Hund $29 per page, OpenStatus Starter $30 |
| $46 to $100 | Larger subscriber counts, SSO, private pages | Statuspal Hobby $46, Hyperping Pro $89, Sorry $99, Statuspage Startup $99, Statuspal Startup $99, OpenStatus Pro $100 |
| $299 to $399 | Thousands of subscribers, full customisation | Hyperping Business $299, Statuspal Business $299, Instatus Business $300, Statuspage Business $399 |
| $500 and above | Published top tiers | OpenStatus Scale $500, Statuspage Enterprise $1,499 |
| Priced per person | The status page is part of a larger product | incident.io Team $19 per user, Better Stack responder seat $34, UptimeRobot Solo €12 and Team €39 |
Status-page list prices in each vendor's published currency, monthly billing, checked 3 September 2026, each from the vendor's own pricing page. These are entry prices for the plan named; Hyperping and Sorry add a per-seat charge on top.
Two caveats belong with that table. Several of these are not status-page products with a status-page price: Better Stack and UptimeRobot bundle the page with monitoring, and incident.io bundles it with incident response and charges per user. And a page with no subscriber mechanism is a different product from one with a subscriber list, however similar the screenshot looks.
What it costs when the status page is part of your support tool
StayUpfront takes the other approach: the status page is one view of a single customer-facing product, alongside the support inbox, incidents, docs and uptime checks. It runs on your own domain, customers choose which parts of the service they want updates about, and a company with several products can run a portal for each.
| Plan | Customer contacts | Founding, per month | Standing, per month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | 100 | £49 | £79 |
| Growth | 500 | £99 | £149 |
| Portfolio | 2,000 | £249 | £349 |
StayUpfront plans, pounds, excluding VAT, monthly billing. Prices checked 3 September 2026. Founding prices are what early customers pay; standing prices are the list. A Custom plan picks up above Portfolio, at a price agreed upfront. Where annual billing is offered, you pay for eleven of the twelve months.
The honest caveat is the unit. A customer contact is a person you support: someone on the other end of a ticket, a portal login or a status subscription. A Statuspage subscriber is anyone who asked to be told when something breaks, including people who are not your customers at all, and on some pages that list is far longer than the customer list. The two numbers are not interchangeable, so a like-for-like comparison has to start from your own figures.
Once you start from your own figures, the comparison also runs the other way in places. For a status page on its own, under 100 subscribers with no custom domain, Statuspage Free costs nothing and we cost £49 a month. Under 250 subscribers with a custom domain, Hobby at $29 and Instatus Pro at $20 are both below our entry plan. The comparison starts earning its keep when the status page is not the only thing being paid for, since every tool in that bill meters you differently.
The cost calculator opens on worked example one and shows which plan each vendor's rules select, and why; the 1,200-subscriber version is the same scenario over the Business threshold. It totals in pounds, converting dollar and euro prices at a rate shown on the page, so its figures will not match the dollar list prices above exactly. Our plan detail is on the pricing page, and what the status page itself does is on the status pages page.
When Statuspage is the right choice
There are three cases where it is the sensible answer. If procurement needs Atlassian's compliance posture and a vendor name nobody has to defend in a security review, that is a real value and not one we can offer. If you need audience-specific pages, with different customer groups seeing different components at group granularity, Statuspage's third ladder is the deepest implementation available and the $300 entry buys something few others sell. And if you already run Jira Service Management, the embed and the shared account are worth something on their own.
If none of those apply and the bill has stepped up twice in a year on subscriber count, the useful question is whether a page priced on how many people read it is the right shape for what you are buying.
Questions people ask
How much does Statuspage cost per month? A public page is $0, $29, $99, $399 or $1,499 a month depending on the tier. Private pages run $79 to $1,499 on their own ladder, and audience-specific pages start at $300.
What happens when you go over the subscriber limit? Atlassian does not publish an overage rate; crossing a cap means moving to the next tier. Crossing subscriber 251 costs $70 a month more, subscriber 1,001 costs $300 a month more, and subscriber 5,001 costs $1,100 a month more.
Does Statuspage include uptime monitoring? No. Component status is set by hand, through the REST API, or by an integration with a monitoring tool such as Pingdom, Datadog or New Relic, which is a separate subscription.
Do you pay for each status page separately? Yes. Each page is its own subscription on its own ladder, so a public page and an internal authenticated page are charged separately.
Is Statuspage free? Yes, for one public page with up to 100 subscribers, two team members and no custom domain. A custom domain starts at $29 a month.
Can you pay annually? Annual billing is available, but Atlassian's documentation says it needs a signed order form, and no annual discount is published.
If you would rather see all of this against your own numbers, the cost calculator takes them, and there is a 14-day free trial with nothing charged until it ends.
