VPS providers
Four providers, twelve plans, every price read from a page we archived on the date shown.
Prices are not directly comparable across providers. One quotes excluding VAT and excluding an IPv4 address, one quotes in dollars, one quotes a promotional rate that rises on renewal, and one quotes including German VAT. Each provider page says which applies, and the calculators ask you for the full amount you would actually pay.
- DigitalOcean: US provider with a published price list in dollars and a fixed monthly cap per plan.
- Hetzner Cloud: German provider with the lowest published European cloud prices in our set.
- Hostinger VPS: Promotional pricing on long prepaid terms, with a higher renewal price.
- netcup: German provider quoting euro prices including VAT, with generous NVMe storage.
Compare plans against your stack
| provider | plans we track | currency | price basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| DigitalOcean | 3 | USD | Prices are in USD and exclude local tax. Convert with your own rate before comparing with a machine you buy in euros. |
| Hetzner Cloud | 3 | EUR | Our archived document is the June 2026 price adjustment, which lists prices but not plan specifications, so vCPU, memory and disk stay unknown here until we archive a specification page. |
| Hostinger VPS | 3 | USD | The advertised monthly figure requires a multi-year prepayment. For a three-year comparison use the renewal price, which we record as a separate fact. |
| netcup | 3 | EUR | Prices are quoted including 19 percent German VAT, so they are not directly comparable with prices quoted excluding VAT. |
