01
Purpose
The directory helps newcomers and hobbyists compare submitted facts about lower-cost services that support BGP sessions. Visitors should verify current availability, terms, and technical details directly with each provider.
02
Eligibility
A submitted listing should meet all of these baseline requirements:
- Offer a service that supports customer BGP sessions.
- Advertise a lowest eligible plan of $15 USD or less, or a comparable amount.
- Keep any required setup fee below $50 USD.
- Provide a public website and enough information to identify the operator.
Inclusion records eligibility and submitted information only. Maintainers do not independently rank every provider or promise that a listing remains current.
03
Record format
Listings can include the following submitted fields:
- Provider name and ASN
- Service locations
- Available products
- Route delivery
- IRR, RPKI, and LOA controls
- BGP fees and USD starting price
- Provider billing currency
- Operational notes and provider link
Prices are shown in USD for comparison. Non-USD listings use the European Central Bank reference rates published on 4 September 2026. The currency flag and code show what the provider actually bills, so the final charge can vary with exchange rates.
04
Submissions and corrections
To request a listing or correct an existing record, open an issue on GitHub with public supporting details. Changes are reviewed against this policy and the data format used by the directory.
This project does not initiate communication through provider support tickets or live chat. Anyone claiming to be a bgp.cheap auditor is fraudulent.
