# Pricing

Cloudback uses a **per-repository pricing model** for GitHub. You pay based on the number of repositories you protect, not the number of users or seats in your organization.

## How Units Work for GitHub

Each GitHub repository with backups enabled consumes **1 unit** from your subscription pool.

| What You Protect        | Units Consumed |
| ----------------------- | -------------- |
| 1 GitHub repository     | 1 unit         |
| 10 GitHub repositories  | 10 units       |
| 100 GitHub repositories | 100 units      |

Units are shared across all connected accounts and platforms.

For full plan details, pricing tables, and billing cycle options, see [Pricing](/account-and-billing-management/pricing.md).

## What's Included

Every GitHub backup includes the full repository plus metadata:

* Git repository (bare clone with all branches, tags, and refs)
* Git LFS objects
* Issues (including sub-issues and issue types)
* Pull requests
* Wiki pages
* Releases and release assets
* Labels, milestones, and topics
* Projects V2
* Commit comments
* Collaborators
* Webhooks (excluding secrets)

For a complete breakdown, see [GitHub Backup Contents](/github/backup-contents.md).
