CDN Pricing 2026 Verified: Cloudflare $0, Bunny $0.01/GB, Fastly $0.08, 3 Vendors Quote-Only
Independent reference. Per-GB egress rates pulled from each vendor's own published pricing page on 17 June 2026, with an interactive cost calculator. Three vendors (Akamai, Edgio, Azure Front Door) refuse to publish a rate card; we say so instead of inventing numbers.
Verified 17 June 2026 against 9 public pricing pages plus 3 quote-only confirmations
CDN cost calculator
Move the egress slider and region mix to see estimated monthly cost across 9 active vendors at their lowest published rate tier. Quote-only vendors are listed without a number; we will not fabricate one.
Estimates use each vendor's lowest published per-GB rate for the selected region mix at the cheapest tier. Real invoices vary with cache hit ratio, request counts, premium features, and negotiated commitments. We never infer prices for quote-only vendors.
Pricing matrix (all 12 vendors)
Each row links to the dedicated vendor breakdown. The cheapest published rate is the vendor's own lowest-tier number, not an estimate we invented.

PoP-count claims (vendor stated)
PoP counts are what each vendor claims on their own marketing page. They are useful for region coverage hints but not for raw performance comparison; a 100-PoP network with peering in the right places will beat a 500-PoP network in many markets.
Why three vendors stay quote-only
Akamai, Edgio and Azure CDN/Front Door do not publish per-GB rates that you can quote back to procurement. In Akamai's case it is policy; for Edgio the entire product's commercial status has been uncertain since the 2024 Chapter 11; for Azure CDN, Microsoft retired the Standard Microsoft and Standard Edgio SKUs in 2025 and Front Door now sits behind EA-discounted pricing for any meaningful volume. We list them with the source link so you know what you are dealing with.
Policy. No public rate card. Quotes anchor on commitment tiers.
Vendor financial continuity uncertain after 2024 Chapter 11. Confirm operation before signing.
Azure CDN Standard retired in 2025. Front Door rates exist but real volume sits in EA discount.
