Is Atlassian Statuspage free? What it actually costs in 2026

The short answer

Yes, there is a free tier — with limits.

Free for a single page with a small number of components and no subscriber notifications worth relying on. Paid tiers scale on components, subscribers and features — private pages, custom domains, SSO and metrics — with team plans in the tens to low hundreds of dollars a month and enterprise quoted. The line most people hit first is subscribers: notifying customers is the entire point of a status page, and it is the thing metered hardest. Checked 2026-08-01.

When paying is still the right call

Stay if you are on the free tier and it covers you, which it does for a lot of small products. Stay if you are already an Atlassian shop — the Jira and Opsgenie integrations mean an incident can update the public page without anyone remembering to do it manually, and that integration is worth real money during an actual outage. Stay if you need the compliance and audit features enterprise customers ask for. And stay if your status page is contractually part of an SLA, where a self-hosted page sharing infrastructure with the service it reports on is a genuine problem.

What you are locked into

Low on data, higher on habit. Components and incident history export via the API, and rebuilding the page elsewhere is not difficult. What is genuinely awkward is the subscriber list: people signed up to hear from you at a specific address, and moving them to a new system means asking them to opt in again, which not all of them will. Custom domains ease the transition — if status.yourcompany.com already points at Statuspage, repointing it is a DNS change your customers never see.
