Points to note about rates for runners
The number of jobs you can run concurrently across all repositories in your user or organization account depends on your {% data variables.product.github %} plan. For more information, see AUTOTITLE for {% data variables.product.github %}-hosted runners and AUTOTITLE for self-hosted runner usage limits.
{% data reusables.actions.larger-runner-permissions %}
{% data reusables.actions.about-larger-runners-billing %}
For {% data variables.actions.hosted_runner %}s, there is no additional cost for configurations that assign public static IP addresses to a {% data variables.actions.hosted_runner %}. For more information on {% data variables.actions.hosted_runner %}s, see AUTOTITLE.
Included minutes cannot be used for {% data variables.actions.hosted_runner %}s.
The {% data variables.actions.hosted_runner %}s are not free for public repositories.
Custom images can only be used with larger runners and are billed at the same per-minute rates as those runners.
