Add-ons and extras

Priority support and services for Enterprise

Included in Enterprise tier; no separate public add-on price disclosed

Hidden and indirect costs

Worth budgeting for
⚠  The self-managed open-source tier is free to license, but buyers still need to budget for their own infrastructure, maintenance, backups, and administration. The third-party reference notes that self-hosting can still require a VPS or server, while Gitea Cloud removes much of the operational burden but does not publicly disclose pricing in the supplied materials.
⚠  Enterprise is sold per user and requires a one-year commitment with online payment for the lowest publicly listed rate. That means seat count and contract term can materially affect total spend even before considering any discounted nonprofit or small-company arrangements.
