Hetzner pricing and plans

German cloud with big traffic allowances, dearer since June 2026

Hetzner made its name as the price floor for European cloud servers, with included traffic far larger than the US budget clouds. Two things have changed that: prices rose on 15 June 2026, by 25% to 204% depending on the server type, and Hetzner’s cheapest shared-vCPU lines (CX, and the Arm-based CAX) are sold out, which leaves the dearer CPX line as what you can buy today. Prices exclude VAT, the region map is Europe-heavy, and a public IPv4 address is billed separately. The printed price vs the price you pay, at every provider we track.

Plans and derived unit cost

The final two columns are computed from the monthly price, which is how you spot the tier where a provider stops being good value.

These are the providers' own list prices, shown in US dollars and last updated 23 Oct 2026. Where a provider bills a public IPv4 address on top, it is added to the monthly price, the ranking and every cost per vCPU or per GB, and the row shows the parts: the server, any disk priced apart, and the IPv4 charge. Each row says when we read its price, and whether it excludes VAT or needs a term. Check the provider's page before you buy.

The 15 June 2026 price rise

Hetzner raised its cloud prices for new orders and cloud server rescales from 8 AM CEST on 15 June 2026. Servers ordered before then keep the old price, though Hetzner says some changes to a server with legacy pricing can move it to current pricing. Across every type and location the increase ran from 25% to 204%. Monthly prices excluding VAT and the IPv4 address, as Hetzner published them.

Where Hetzner wins

  • Very large included traffic allowance
  • Hourly billing, capped at the monthly price
  • An official API, command-line tool and Terraform provider

Where it does not

  • Europe-weighted region map; thin coverage outside the EU and two US sites
  • Prices rose by 25% to 204% on 15 June 2026, and the cheapest lines (CX, CAX) are sold out
  • IPv4 addresses carry a separate monthly charge
  • New-account identity verification can delay first provisioning

Who should pick this

Workloads with European users that move a lot of traffic each month.

Support: Ticket support; no phone support on cloud plans.

How current is this pricing?
We read prices every day; the latest reading was on 23 Oct 2026. Every price carries the date it was read from Hetzner's own pricing page or price API, and a price our daily reader cannot read again for seven days is hidden rather than shown stale.
