Prices are estimates only and are not intended as actual price quotes. Actual pricing may vary depending on the type of agreement entered with Microsoft, date of purchase, and the currency exchange rate. Prices are calculated based on US dollars and converted using London closing spot rates that are captured in the two business days prior to the last business day of the previous month end. If the two business days prior to the end of the month autumn on a bank holiday in major markets, the rate setting day is generally the day immediately preceding the two business days. This rate applies to all transactions during the forthcoming month. Sign in to the Azure pricing calculator to see pricing based on your current programme/offer with Microsoft.

Microsoft Genomics service billing is based on the number of gigabases processed per workflow. The first 10 gigabases are billed at a minimum rate of $-. This is the genome rate. All additional gigabases are billed at the incremental gigabase rate of $- gigabase.
A gigabase is 1 billion (1,000,000,000) bases. Gigabases are computed by counting all the bases in the submitted files, then rounding up or down to the nearest whole gigabase.

| Genomes | 1 genome | Processing up to first 10 gigabases | $- |
| Incremental bases | 1 gigabase | Processing of bases beyond first 10 gigabases | $-/gigabase |

Frequently asked questions
-
If you cancel your workflow before the workflow enters the "in progress" state, you won't be charged. If the workflow enters the "in progress" state and is then cancelled, you will be charged for the quantity of genomes.
-
If the workflow starts and fails due to any error, there won't be any charges. There also won't be any charges if the workflow fails due to expired shared access signature tokens for writing the output file.
