+ 36 • $5 goes further than you think for small apps. A typical Node.js API with a Postgres database uses ~$2-3/month on Railway.

+ 37 • Credit does not roll over on the Free plan -- use it or lose it each month.

+ 38 • GitHub verification matters: Sign up with a GitHub account that has some history (repos, activity). Unverified accounts get restricted networking, which can break apps that make external API calls.

+ 40 • Railway supports one-click database deployments (Postgres, MySQL, Redis, MongoDB) that share your credit allocation.

+ 41 • The Hobby plan at $5/month is a natural upgrade path -- it includes $5 in usage credit, so you only pay for overages.

+ 42 • Railway has excellent monorepo support and can auto-detect services in a multi-service repo.

+ 43 • Image retention on the Free plan is only 24 hours after deployment removal.
