Real-World Cloud Firestore Cost Examples
Small hobby/beta app (400–600 users)
$Under $0.50/monthUnder $0.50/month
A small Flutter or web app in beta with a few hundred users, modest read/write frequency, and well-optimized queries. Likely stays within or slightly above the free tier.
Reddit (or9ob, Jun 2024): 'I have an app in beta for about 6 months now. We have growing users, in the offer of 400-600 right now. The whole app costs me less than 50 cents per month to run!'Growing consumer app (3,000 daily active users)
$Usage-based (Blaze plan)Usage-based (Blaze plan)
App with 3,000 DAU, each generating approximately 20 reads and 10 writes per day — roughly 1.8 million reads and 900,000 writes per month. Usage beyond the free quota is billed on the Blaze (Pay as you go) plan.
Reddit (Celac242, Jan 2025): '3,000 daily active users would cost around $5.40 per month, plus minimal storage costs'Mid-scale app (100,000 daily active users)
$Usage-based; billed per read and writeUsage-based; billed per read and write
App with 100,000 DAU each making 1 read and 1 write per day, billed per operation on the Blaze (Pay as you go) plan.
Reddit (or9ob, Apr 2024): 'Writes Cost: $0.18 * 30 = $5.40/month... Reads Cost: $0.06 * 30 = $1.80/month... the estimated Firestore cost for the operations you've described, with 100,000 daily users, is around $7.20/month'High-traffic e-commerce (100M+ operations/month)
$Less than $10/month for reads and writesLess than $10/month for reads and writes
E-commerce site storing session and basket data with extremely high traffic, optimized for Firestore's strengths (key-value style access, denormalized documents).
Reddit (iamcarpet, Sep 2024): 'We use it to store sessions & basket data on an e-commerce website that gets 100million+ hits per month, and it's less than $10 for read/writes.'IoT Device Fleet (High-Frequency Writes)
$Potentially multiples of what a storage-based database would cost — evaluate per-operation write frequency before committing to Firestore for this use casePotentially multiples of what a storage-based database would cost — evaluate per-operation write frequency before committing to Firestore for this use case
A fleet of IoT devices writing small sensor payloads a few times per second each. Despite low data volume, per-operation Firestore pricing makes this workload significantly more expensive than storage-based alternatives.
