We place a high value on a balanced price-performance ratio. To ensure all customers benefit from fair pricing, we use the fair-use principle for traffic billing. This means there is no exact limit, but excessive use is restricted.
Why Is There a Limit?
If a customer with an inexpensive 4 Euro vServer uses 5TB within 20 days, it results in costs for us that far exceed the monthly server fee paid. Most customers use less than 1TB per month. Therefore, we don’t set a specific traffic limit in advance. However, if all customers used such large amounts of data, we would have to raise prices for everyone.
10 TB Included
From now on, some of our servers include 10 TB of traffic per month! This means you can utilize your full potential without worrying about extra costs. If you need more, we offer simple options to add extra traffic.
Burst Speed and Throttling
Depending on the server you have, we offer burst speed that can be used up to a limit of 10 TB per month with full bandwidth. After that, the bandwidth is reduced to 50 Mbps. In extreme cases, we reserve the right to throttle the speed to 25 Mbps.
Adding More Traffic
If you need more traffic at full speed, you can add extra traffic anytime. You can buy up to 10TB for 9.50 Euro per TB. From 10TB onwards, each additional TB costs 8.50 Euro. Please note that unused extra traffic will expire.
Allowed and Not Allowed Traffic
Not Allowed Traffic
- VPN traffic outside your own household
- Traffic from Tor nodes
- Torrenting of copyrighted material
- Proxy traffic like SOCKS-Proxy outside your household
- IPTV
- 24/7 live streams to platforms like Twitch or YouTube
These types of traffic cause constant or unfair traffic peaks and are therefore not allowed.
Allowed Traffic (within Fair Use)
- High-traffic websites
- Legally permissible download sites
- Nextcloud or similar file transfers without public access
- Game server content
- Private VPN traffic for your own PC
- Your own services for traffic optimization (like Reverse Proxy, Content Delivery)
Prices and Quotas
If you need extra traffic quota, you must book it in advance. Unused traffic will expire at the end of the billing period. Here are the prices:
- Up to 10TB: 9.50 Euro per TB
- From 10TB onwards: 8.50 Euro per TB
So if you want to book 2TB of extra traffic, it costs a one-time fee of 19.00 Euro. The extra traffic is billed monthly, and the billing date is always the same as the order date of the associated service.
