# Elastic IPs

### How Elastic IPs pricing works

It is important to note that each Compute instance, Load Balancer unit, or Kubernetes node comes with a free, public Elastic IPv4 address. Any additional Elastic IP not attached to an instance will be charged accordingly. Charges accrue hourly for as long as the Elastic IP exists.

### Pricing per Elastic IP

| Item          | Hourly price° | Monthly price°¹ |
| ------------- | ------------- | --------------- |
| 1 public IPv4 | CHF 0.01      | CHF 7.30        |

° Prices are in CHF (Swiss franc) and don't include VAT. 1 CHF is usually [equal](https://www.google.com/search?q=1+CHF+in+USD\&cad=h) to 1 USD.\
¹ Monthly price estimates are based on 730 hours of usage.
