Hetzner announces another price increase, with cloud service prices rising nearly 40%

One of Europe’s largest data center operators and cloud service providers, Hetzner, announced that due to “significant increases in costs across multiple IT sectors,” the company will raise prices on all products and services starting April 1, 2026. This includes cloud services, dedicated servers, storage, and load balancers, with several products experiencing substantial price hikes. The price adjustments will affect new orders and existing subscriptions at the company’s data centers in Europe, the United States, and Singapore. Among all offerings, cloud service prices quoted in euros are notably affected, with prices in Germany and Finland increasing by 30% to 38% depending on configuration levels; in the U.S., the prices for CCX dedicated vCPU cloud servers generally rose by around 30%. This is Hetzner’s second price increase announced this month. Previously, on February 2, the company announced a one-time setup fee/infrastructure fee increase for dedicated servers, citing “unusually high hardware component procurement costs” as the main reason. At that time, Hetzner admitted that the price hike was insufficient to fully cover the actual increased costs and was evaluating whether to expand the scope of the price increases to more product lines and whether to implement price hikes for existing orders.
