Use Queues to decouple services, buffer workloads, handle background processing, and build event-driven architectures. Each message incurs operations for sending, processing, and acknowledging — billed as a combined operation count.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Cloudflare Queues cost?
Queues are free for ~300K operations/month. On Workers Paid ($5/mo), 1 million operations are included, with $0.40/million for overages. Each message typically generates ~3 operations (send, receive, acknowledge).
How are Queue operations counted?
Each message typically generates 3 operations: one to send, one when the consumer receives it, and one to acknowledge it. So 1 million messages ≈ 3 million operations.
What happens if a Queue message fails to process?
Queues automatically retry failed messages. If a consumer doesn't acknowledge a message within the visibility timeout, the message is re-delivered. After repeated failures, messages can be routed to a dead-letter queue for investigation.
