FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does Gameye charge egress fees?
No. Egress is included in the compute price. You pay for vCPU/hour — there is no separate bandwidth or data transfer charge.
What is the difference between on-demand and reserved?
On-demand ($0.07/vCPU/hr) is pay-as-you-go with no commitment. Reserved ($0.02/vCPU/hr) is a committed capacity block. Most studios use a mix: reserved for baseline load, on-demand for peaks and launches.
Is there a minimum session length?
No. Billing is per second. There is no minimum session length and no minimum commitment for on-demand capacity.
Do I need a Gameye SDK in my game server?
No. Gameye requires no SDK in your game server binary. Ship a Docker container, call a REST API. No engine plugins, no lifecycle SDK.
What is Bring Your Own Infrastructure (BYOI)?
BYOI lets studios run Gameye's orchestration engine on their own servers — bare metal, colocation, or existing cloud accounts — at $2/vCPU/month flat. You own and pay for the compute directly; Gameye provides the full orchestration API on top.
