Rewrites themselves don’t have separate pricing - they’re included as part of Vercel’s standard features. However, there are a few things that could affect your costs:
What’s free:
- The rewrite configuration itself
- Processing the rewrite rules
What might have costs:
- Bandwidth usage - If your rewrites are proxying a lot of traffic to your external server, you’ll consume bandwidth from your plan’s allowance
- Function invocations - If you’re using Edge Functions or Serverless Functions alongside rewrites, those count toward your function execution limits
For a simple rewrite like yours (/:path → https://my-server.co/dashboard/:path), you’re mainly using bandwidth. On the Hobby plan, you get 100GB of bandwidth per month included.
You can monitor your usage in the Vercel Dashboard under the Usage tab to see how much bandwidth your rewrites are consuming.
