Your usage data shows that the egress spike is coming from your Redis service in the "vigilant-spirit" project, which has consumed ~1,132 GB of network egress ($56.61) this billing cycle. Your other services have minimal egress by comparison. If your app is connecting to Redis over the public network, switching to private networking would eliminate egress charges for internal service-to-service traffic. You can also set a hard usage limit at railway.com/workspace/usage to cap future spend.

We've applied a $30 goodwill credit toward this cycle's egress overage. Going forward, point the app at the private network Redis variables (the .railway.internal hostname) to remove egress on internal traffic, and set a hard usage limit on the Workspace Usage page to cap future spend.
