UP42 · Pricing Plans

Up42 Plans Pricing

UP42 is priced on a prepaid credit model rather than API request tiers. You buy UP42 credits (100 credits = 1 EUR; equivalently 1 credit = EUR 0.01) and spend them on data and analytics. Credits are valid for two years from purchase. The API itself is free to call - you only pay for what you order. Archive (catalog) imagery is charged per selected area of interest (per km2, with per-collection minimums) and is available for immediate purchase; tasking (new acquisitions) is quoted per project after a feasibility study and paid in credits when the quotation is accepted; processing/analytics is charged by the spatial extent of the selected STAC item. Volume, platform, and self-service enterprise arrangements are handled through UP42 sales. Exact per-collection and per-km2 rates vary by data provider and are not reconciled here.
