Firebase Authentication
free to fifty thousand users, on two price lists at once
the cheapest route to fifty thousand consumer users, wearing two price lists whose enterprise half we could not read.
firebase's pricing page lists fifty thousand monthly active users free on both the spark and blaze plans, and does so for both 'authentication' and 'authentication with identity platform' — so this category's anchor lands at $0. for a consumer product that is the cheapest credible option on this page alongside logto.
the complication is that the same underlying service is sold twice. legacy firebase auth and google cloud identity platform are the same thing billed through different consoles, with different rate cards above the free tier, and firebase now shows both as separate lines on one page. working out which one you are on, and what you will pay above fifty thousand users, requires reading google cloud's pricing rather than firebase's.
the description above is ours, condensed from the ranking. pricing moves — check it on the vendor's own page before you rely on it.

we researched this category against vendors' own pricing pages and licence files. that is where this line comes from — not from the vendor, and not from anything they paid for.
