Are all plans available in Germany?

Yes. All 21 plans across all 5 ranges — Classic, SSD, NVMe, Cloud and VDS — are orderable with Germany selected at checkout.

Does a server in Germany cost the same as one anywhere else?

No. Germany carries a location fee of $4.95 a month on top of the plan price, so the cheapest server here works out at $9.90 a month rather than the $4.95 entry price. Datacenter costs differ by country and choosing "Any Location" at checkout, where we pick the datacenter, carries no location fee at all.

Can I send email from a VPS in Germany?

Yes. Outbound Port 25 is open by default on every plan, in every country, with custom rDNS/PTR records available. There is no approval step and no support ticket required to unblock it.

Can I test the network before I buy?

Yes. A test IP for this location is available on request through a support ticket. Test IPs are not published on the site, so open a ticket naming the country you want to test.

Which city in Germany is the server in?

The Germany location is in Frankfurt.

Can I run Windows Server in Germany?

Yes, on any plan with 2 GB of memory or more. Plans below 2 GB are Linux only. This is the same everywhere and is not a per-country restriction.

Do you provide IPv6 in Germany?

Yes. IPv6 is available in Germany and in every other country we sell in. Every plan already includes a dedicated IPv4 address, and you can add up to 16 IPv6 addresses at $1.00 each per month, selected at checkout or added later from the client area. Extra IPv4 addresses are also available, up to 3 per server at $6.50 each per month.

Which other location is closest to Germany?

Brussels, Belgium, about 320 km away in a straight line. That is a guide to geography rather than a latency promise, since the route packets take is longer than the direct distance. A test IP for either location is available on request through a support ticket.

Why choose Germany

A server here keeps the data inside the European Union, which is the usual reason to choose a specific EU country rather than the cheapest European option.

What this page does not tell you about Germany

Two things a location page usually asserts and this one will not, because we do not hold the data to back them. Everything above is measured or contractual; everything here is openly missing.

Latency figures Round-trip time depends on your own network far more than on ours, and a number measured from one place would be wrong for almost everyone reading it. A test IP for this location is available on request through a support ticket — measure it from where your users actually are. Measure it yourself
The datacenter operator, tier rating and peering We do not publish the facility name, a tier certification or an IX membership list for this location, because we are not in a position to stand behind those claims for every country. What is committed is the plan specification as sold — see the SLA page for exactly what that covers and what it does not. Not published

The closest locations to Frankfurt

Measured between the cities themselves, nearest first — not grouped by region, because a region is a poor guide to what is actually near. Useful if you later want a second server for redundancy, or one closer to a different part of your audience. The same 21 plans are available in each.

Brussels, Belgium Europe · closest of the 55 other locations about 320 km
Amsterdam, Netherlands Europe about 360 km
Prague, Czechia Europe about 410 km
Geneva, Switzerland Europe about 470 km
Paris, France Europe about 480 km

Distances are straight-line, city centre to city centre, rounded to the nearest 10 km. They are a guide to geography, not a latency promise: the route your packets take is longer than the crow flies and depends on your own network as much as ours. A test IP for any of these locations is available on request — open a ticket and measure it from where your users are.
