Neon

About the program

Neon is serverless Postgres. Fully managed, autoscaling PostgreSQL with database branching, point-in-time restore, and a generous free tier. Scale to zero when idle, scale up instantly on traffic — no server management required. The partner program is restricted to accepted open source projects via GitHub Sponsors — it is not a general affiliate program. Earn $20 for every referred user who spends $20 or more, with no earnings cap. Payouts are made monthly via GitHub Sponsors. General developers or content creators without an accepted open source project are not eligible.

Good fit when

• Serverless and edge apps that need a Postgres database that scales to zero
• Development workflows that want database branches per Git branch
• Teams migrating from managed Postgres (RDS, Cloud SQL) to reduce idle costs
• Next.js and Vercel apps that need a fast, co-located Postgres database
