Hetzner moves its pricing clock forward, effective 15 June 2026 at 8 AM CEST. New orders and instance rescales will pay the updated rates, while orders placed before the cut‑off but delivered later keep old prices. The change touches every server tier, from Falkenstein to Helsinki, and alters monthly and setup fees across locations.

On dedicated hardware, the table lists € and $ rates for each model: AX42, AX102, EX63, EX131, SX65, SX135, SX295, and GEX series. Limited‑tier options—marked limited offerings—appear only when low‑cost hardware arrives, sometimes weeks later. These tiers keep full support but slash costs, making them attractive for budget‑conscious projects.

Cloud pricing shifts mirror the dedicated changes, with Europe and US regions receiving new hourly and monthly rates. Hetzner also promotes its server auction, where older models trade at Dutch‑style auction prices, offering further discounts. Customers must review the updated price sheet to adjust budgets and migration plans before the June 15 deadline.

The price sheet also lists limited‑tier options that appear only after low‑cost hardware is available, sometimes weeks later. These limited tiers maintain full support, making them suitable for projects that need cost savings without sacrificing service level. Clients should download the full document and plan migrations accordingly to avoid paying higher rates after the cut‑off.
