Description
Railway is a usage-based cloud platform for deploying apps, databases, and services. Pricing is per-second for CPU, memory, and disk. Public plans include a free tier with $1 of monthly credits, Hobby at $5/mo (with $5 credits), and Pro at $20/mo per workspace (with $20 credits). A free trial gives $5 in credits for 30 days. Usage beyond included credits is billed on top.
The affiliate program pays 15% of every invoice a referred customer pays for 12 months after they sign up. Referred users get $20 in Railway credits. There is no approval step: sign up, copy the workspace referral link, and share it.
Cash withdrawals go out monthly via Stripe Connect in $100 to $10,000 increments. You can also take earnings as Railway credits. Older docs still mention GitHub Sponsors and Buy Me a Coffee withdrawals.
A separate Template Kickback program pays 25% of Railway revenue from published templates. That is not this affiliate track.
