There is no additional charge for AWS Elastic Beanstalk. You pay for AWS resources (e.g. EC2 instances or S3 buckets) you create to store and run your application. You only pay for what you use, as you use it; there are no minimum fees and no upfront commitments.

Is Elastic Beanstalk worth?

Elastic Beanstalk is a bad choice if you need worker processes. The whole point of a worker process is to perform a task in the background without slowing down your main web app. But Elastic Beanstalk doesn’t support this option in a scalable way.

Is Elastic Beanstalk on free tier?

There’s no charge for using Elastic Beanstalk as such, but you pay for the AWS resources that store and run your code. The Free Usage Tier, which is available for 12 months, may be enough to run many applications that don’t get heavy traffic.
