Hidden Costs Breakdown

1

Storage fees for hosted files

medium addon

BunnyCDN charges separately for file storage if you choose to store files on their platform rather than just using CDN caching. This includes their storage zones and Perma-Cache feature.

reddit

BunnyCDN's pricing structure is pretty straightforward. If you're just using the CDN, it mainly comes down to the data you transfer. There are no hidden fees unless you decide to store files, which costs extra.

BunnyCDN keeps it simple with pricing. You mainly pay for the data transfer, but if you're storing files, that's extra. If you're just using the CDN, forget about storage fees unless you go for Perma-Cache.

DDoS / Bot Traffic Overages With No Default Rate Limiting

high overage

BunnyCDN charges for all bandwidth consumed, including traffic from DDoS attacks or bot floods. Rate limiting is not enabled by default, so a sustained targeted attack can drain account balance rapidly and push it negative before any alert is sent.

trustpilot

Someone has targeted my CDN and requested the same resource ~100 times per second for hours, until my budget became negative and I got an alert from Bunny to top up. Such a simple attack cost me $40 in a few hours. Bunny is a toy that I would not recommend to anyone. To not have such a simple protection in place by default is a joke.

3

Account Maintenance / Inactivity Fee

medium addon

BunnyCDN introduced a fixed monthly charge for simply having an account, even without active usage. Customers who had pre-loaded account credit expecting it to last indefinitely found it drained by this recurring fee.

trustpilot

I was a happy customer, put some credit there while I was building some stuff, and then they decided charging a fixed amount per month only for having an account. This is the last month they charged and exhausted all the balance I had. Moving to another one.

4

Storage Migration Lock-In — No Bulk Export

high migration

S3 API compatibility can only be enabled at the time a storage zone is created and cannot be added to an existing zone. There is no bulk export tool, making migrations away from BunnyCDN storage (or between zones) a manual, object-by-object operation at any scale.

trustpilot

S3 compatibility can only be turned on when a storage zone is created. Never afterwards. Support confirmed there are no plans to ever change this. So the only way to use standard S3 tooling and presigned URLs is to build a new zone and migrate everything by hand. Fine. Except there is no bulk export. No

Misleading Trial Credit Expiry Causes Service Outages

medium addon

Trial credits are displayed in the account dashboard balance without clearly marking them as expired promotional credit versus real paid balance. When trial credits expire, services including CDN and storage go offline immediately until the account is topped up with real funds.

trustpilot

Bunny.net displays a balance in your account dashboard (mine showed $10.86) without clearly labeling it as expired promotional credit vs real paid balance. Support confirmed the credit is gone and non-refundable, but the UI never made that distinction clear. Confusing on purpose.

trustpilot

Their trial offer was confusing to me, and it ended up with my website down until I topped up my balance. It felt that I don't have to have any balance to keep it running since over the trial period it didn't use a cent from the trial credit.

6

Incident Compensation Is Minimal Relative to Downtime Impact

medium support

When platform-side incidents cause data loss, upload failures, or CDN outages, BunnyCDN's compensation has been limited to small account credits. One customer running a production workload received only $15 credit after a week-long backend sync issue caused extended upload degradation followed by a complete outage.

trustpilot

It got rolled back, I got $15 in credit, and I got a written assurance it would not happen again. In February the CDN started returning random 400s. So much for that.
