Frequently Asked Questions

How does AWS WAF request pricing change with WCU and body inspection?

AWS WAF starts with a base request charge, then increases the per-million request rate when your web ACL exceeds 1,500 WCU. If you inspect request bodies beyond the default 16 KB, AWS also adds a separate per-million request surcharge.

How are Fraud Control requests billed when both protections are enabled?

Account Takeover Prevention and Account Creation Fraud Prevention each add their own monthly subscription fee, but the tiered request fee is applied to the combined analyzed request volume across both protections.

CloudBurn

Catch AWS cost mistakes before they ship.

Use the calculator for quick estimates, then use CloudBurn when you need a deterministic cost review workflow. Run scan against Terraform and CloudFormation before deploy, then run discover against live AWS to find the waste that is already burning.
