Pricing at a glance

◇ Pricing model

Hybrid: usage-based plans with included build credits and collaborator-based scaling, fixed-price unlimited plans with concurrency caps, and a separate Server/on-premise option.

↻ Billing notes

Public pricing supports monthly and yearly billing. The pricing page advertises yearly pricing as “8% OFF,” and the FAQ says annual billing unlocks “a free month of service.” Travis CI also states that for teams with 20+ users, it offers volume-based discounts, but the page does not publish the discount schedule. The FAQ says you can change your plan at any time, and it notes that on-premises installations should contact sales. VAT is excluded from listed prices, and the platform offers a free trial on the third-party pricing reference page.

Add-ons and extras

Linux customized images addon

Not publicly disclosed

The pricing page lists Linux customized images as an add-on for usage-based plans, but it does not publish a separate dollar amount for this add-on.

Credits add-on / auto-refill

Not publicly disclosed

The FAQ says usage-based customers can enable auto-refill or purchase a credits add-on when they run out of build credits, but it does not publish a separate fee for the add-on itself.

Hidden and indirect costs

Worth budgeting for
⚠  The clearest public variable cost is collaborator growth on usage-based plans: Travis CI says, “your pricing scales up $15 per month for each user.” That means the headline plan price is not the full cost for teams that need more collaborators. The FAQ also says listed prices exclude VAT, so tax may be added depending on the purchaser’s country.
⚠  Usage-based plans can incur extra charges if you buy more minutes or credits. The FAQ says customers can “buy additional minutes as needed” and can purchase a credits add-on from the dashboard. Because the page does not publish a rate card for those extra credits, buyers should expect usage expansion to be a variable cost rather than a fixed line item.
⚠  The pricing page also mentions premium VMs, which are available on multiple tiers, but it does not publish separate public pricing for those VM upgrades. That leaves compute-heavy workloads with a potentially higher total cost that is not fully transparent on the pricing page itself.

What buyers actually pay

A small engineering team wants predictable CI spend with a modest amount of hosted usage.

Expected costAbout $15 per month before VAT for the usage-based plan, plus $15 per additional collaborator if the team grows.

A larger team wants unlimited collaborators and repositories but can live within a concurrency cap.

Expected costAbout $78+ per month before VAT on monthly billing or $72+ per month before VAT on yearly billing for the Unlimited Plan.

An organization needs self-hosted or private-cloud CI/CD.

Expected costNot publicly disclosed beyond the listed $34 per month Server figure, so a sales conversation may be needed to understand the full implementation cost.

Pricing FAQ

Yes. Travis CI’s public third-party pricing reference says a free trial is available, and the quickstart page says you can “Get started with a free trial that includes 10,000 build minutes and unlimited concurrent jobs.” The official pricing page itself does not restate the full trial package on the main pricing table, so the quickest public confirmation comes from the quickstart page. Buyers should still verify what the trial includes for their account type before relying on it for evaluation.

Yes. The FAQ says, “Absolutely—and you’ll unlock a free month of service as our thanks for doing so.” The pricing page also shows separate monthly and yearly prices and labels yearly as “8% OFF.” If you are choosing between the two, the annual option appears to be the discounted route for buyers who can commit up front.

Travis CI says your subsequent builds are queued until you have sufficient credits. The FAQ also says you can enable auto-refill or buy a credits add-on in the dashboard. Because the price of extra credits is not published on the public pages provided, the exact overage cost is not publicly disclosed.

Yes, but the discount is not fully published. The pricing page says, “For teams with 20 + users, we offer exclusive volume-based discounts.” That confirms there are team-based price breaks, but it does not give a percentage or tier schedule. Buyers with larger teams should contact Travis CI for a tailored quote.
