Railway is a cloud platform that gets backend apps, databases and APIs running in minutes. New accounts created through our referral link receive a $20 starter credit.
How to claim the credit
The offer works through a link, not a code — the credit attaches automatically at sign-up.
- Press "Activate the link" on the Railway offer on our site
- Sign up with your GitHub account
- The starter credit attaches to your account
- Deploy your project — the credit covers resource usage
Why Railway?
Connect a repository and Railway builds and deploys it itself — no server setup, no Dockerfile. PostgreSQL, MySQL and Redis spin up in one click. One of the fastest paths for a pet project or MVP.
Conditions
- The credit is for new accounts
- It is spent on resource usage (CPU, memory, network)
- Railway may change the amount and terms — the current state shows at sign-up
Common questions
What happens when the credit runs out?
You add a payment method for your projects to keep running. Usage is visible in the dashboard in real time.
What if the credit does not show?
Check that the account was created through the link on our site — the credit is tied to it and existing accounts do not qualify.
