Put Pause on Project without Incurring Charges

I have a Node.js project that won't be ready for 4-5 months. Instead of re-building the entire project and losing context, history, etc. Is there a way to cancel/pause the project without incurring new charges?

The only way to stop being billed $5/mo for Hobby is to downgrade/cancel the plan in your workspace billing settings. You'll have the option to choose the Free plan, where you'll have $1 per month given to you to host services on Railway.

If you don't want to downgrade your subscription plan, you can enable serverless for your nodejs service. This way your service sleeps and does not incur any charges while it's not in use.

Go to Service > Settings > Enable Serverless

Keep in mind that you still have to pay the $5/month for your subscription in this case.
