How Billing works in Tenki
Understand how billing works in Tenki for GitHub Actions runners. Learn about usage-based pricing, free credits, and how Tenki delivers cost improvements over runners alternatives.
We only start charging when a job actually begins running; time spent in the queue is not billed. Usage is charged per minute, with each started second rounded up to the next second. For example, if a job runs for 2 minutes, 56 seconds, and a fraction of a second, it will be billed as 2 minutes and 57 seconds.
