Auth pricing

Faable Auth is part of the unified Faable subscription — and it is included in every plan, starting on Free. The platform fee and billing model are documented on the Pricing page; this page focuses on what each tier includes for Auth specifically.

Monthly Active Users (MAU)

A Monthly Active User is any unique user who completes at least one successful login during a calendar month. The same user logging in from multiple devices in the same month counts once.

  • Free includes up to 15,000 MAU, forever, with no credit card — enough to launch, not just to test.
  • Hobby has no MAU limit.
  • Pro has no MAU limit, across every auth account on the subscription.

There is no per-user line on any invoice. If a Free project grows past 15,000, we’ll get in touch before anything changes.

A passkey used as a second factor is part of two-step verification, so it is on Hobby. Passkeys as the sign-in method — Touch ID or Face ID instead of a password, see Login Experience — is Pro.

What happens on a downgrade

Plan limits apply when you turn a feature on, never to what is already running. An Action created on Hobby keeps running, a custom login flow already published stays live, a custom domain that is already active keeps serving your login, and an MFA policy that is already on stays on. Your users are never locked out because a plan changed; you just cannot create new ones until you move back up.

SMS

Password recovery and phone verification can go out as a 6-digit code by SMS to a user’s verified mobile — for the university, hospital and corporate mailboxes that quarantine automated mail. Hobby and Pro include 20 SMS per month; every SMS above that is invoiced at the tier’s per-message price (€0.20 on Hobby, €0.18 on Pro). Free is email only. When a plan cannot send — allowance used up on a plan that does not meter, or billing unreachable — recovery falls back to email; nobody is left without a way in. See Phone verification.

Machine-to-machine tokens

Every plan includes 100 machine-to-machine tokens a month per project: successful responses to the Client Credentials grant, including a token served again from the cache.

  • Hobby and Pro: above 100, tokens are billed at €0.00225 each, in blocks of 1,000 (€2.25 per block started), per billing period. Nothing is cut off.
  • Free: the 100 are a cap. The 101st request of the month is refused with 402 and error_code: m2m_quota_exceeded until the next month, or until you upgrade. Free never needs a credit card.

Tokens issued between Faable’s own services are not counted. Plans purchased before 24 September 2026 keep machine-to-machine tokens unmetered.

Keep the count low: a token is valid for its expires_in. Cache it in your service and request a new one only when it is about to expire, instead of one per call.
