London
Outside the European Union, with its own data-protection law. The smallest of our six markets: few no-ID crypto hosts sell a comparable plan there.

London, Amsterdam or Frankfurt: what actually changes?
Three things move with the city: who sits near the server, which country hosts the building, and where the IP address is registered. Plans, prices and traffic allowances stay put. Your VPS runs in a data centre in the city you pick, on IP addresses registered in that country (US, GB, NL or DE in the registry whois).
Netherlands · NL
Amsterdam
Inside the EU. The most crowded market of all six cities, and where the reference plans for our two largest sizes, Giga and Tera, are sold.
Germany · DE
Frankfurt
Inside the EU, close by distance to German, Austrian, Swiss and central European users. One big provider's "Frankfurt" VPS sits about 60 km from the city.
What did a comparable VPS cost in London, Amsterdam and Frankfurt?
On 3 November 2026, Amsterdam had the lowest first price of the three cities at four sizes out of five, and from 4 vCPU / 8 GB up it asked about half, then about a third, of what Frankfurt and London asked. The exception was 1 vCPU / 3 GB / 40 GB, where Hosteons in Frankfurt came in under both other cities. London was the dearest at every size but 2 vCPU / 5 GB / 80 GB, where Frankfurt matched its price on the same Bit.Hosting plan. Each cell gives the least expensive plan that met the survey rules in that city, its host, and the median of all the hosts selling that size there.

| 1 vCPU / 1 GB / 20 GB | $5.61 (Evolution Host) · median $6.89 | $4.99 (HostSailor) · median $8.25 | $5.04 (Senko Digital) · median $12.09 |

Does hosting inside the EU make a project GDPR-compliant?
Not by itself: the General Data Protection Regulation follows the organisation and the people whose data it handles, not the rack. Under Article 3(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, a business established in the Union is covered wherever it processes data. Under Article 3(2), a business outside the Union is covered too when it processes data of people "who are in the Union" while offering them goods or services, or monitoring their behaviour there.
A server in Frankfurt therefore neither brings a project under the regulation nor satisfies it. Each country adds its own act on top: the Netherlands its implementation act (UAVG), Germany the BDSG, and the United Kingdom, which is outside the EU, the UK GDPR with the Data Protection Act 2018. The Amsterdam, Frankfurt and London pages quote the scope article of each. All of this summarises texts read on 3 November 2026 and is not legal advice.
Where do Hetzner, OVHcloud and the big US clouds stand in these cities?
Hetzner, the name most people expect here, has no data centre in any of the three cities. Its German sites are Nuremberg and Falkenstein, plus Helsinki in Finland. OVHcloud sells in all three, but its "Frankfurt" catalogue entry is a data centre in Limburg an der Lahn, about 60 km away, and its Amsterdam offer is a Local Zone with two plans. Three of the five take no crypto at all; Vultr and DigitalOcean take some, under the conditions in the last column.
| Provider | Smallest plan with 1 GB or more | London | Amsterdam | Frankfurt | Crypto |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vultr | 1 vCPU / 1 GB / 25 GB SSD, 1.02 TB | $5.00 | $5.00 | $5.00 | Through BitPay, with a card or PayPal to register |
| DigitalOcean | 1 vCPU / 1 GB / 25 GB SSD, 1.07 TB | $6.00 | $6.00 | $6.00 | Stablecoins, "currently limited" |
| Akamai (Linode) | 1 vCPU / 1 GB / 25 GB, 1 TB | $5.00 | $5.00 | $5.00 | No |
| OVHcloud | 2 vCPU / 4 GB / 40 GB, unmetered at 500 Mbps | $5.23 | $6.16 (Local Zone) | $5.04 (sited in Limburg an der Lahn) | No |
| Hetzner Cloud | 1 vCPU / 1 GB / 20 GB NVMe, 20 TB | Not sold | Not sold | Not sold (Nuremberg: $7.28) | No |
Prices checked on
Prices before VAT. OVHcloud London is £3.90 and Frankfurt €4.49 a month without commitment; Hetzner's Nuremberg plan is €6.49 with its IPv4 address.
What does "no KYC" leave on record?
Less than a card would, but not nothing. No KYC: signing up and paying take no identity document, no selfie, no card and no phone number. You sign in with an account number alone; adding an email is up to you. No KYC is not invisibility: every payment sits on a public blockchain, our billing links your account number to your orders and IP addresses, and your traffic crosses the data-centre network.
You pay in BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC, from a $25 top-up. Plenty of hosts in this survey also say "no KYC" and still keep the right to ask for a document after a refund request, a chargeback or an abuse report; which hosts ask for ID anyway, and when lists them.
Europe VPS: short answers
Is a London VPS inside the EU?
No. The United Kingdom is outside the European Union and has its own data-protection law, the UK GDPR read with the Data Protection Act 2018. Amsterdam and Frankfurt are the two EU cities on offer.
Can I pay in euros or pounds?
No. Prices are set in US dollars and paid in crypto only: BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC.
Can I pay with Monero?
Not today: VPS With Crypto takes BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC. Monero was listed by 28 of the 61 hosts read for the survey on 3 November 2026, so the option exists elsewhere if you need it now.
Which city suits users spread across Europe?
By distance, Frankfurt and Amsterdam sit nearer the middle of the continent than London, which lies at its western edge. If most of your users are in the UK or Ireland, London is the closer pick. We publish no timing figures, so test from where your users are.
Can I move a VPS from Amsterdam to Frankfurt later?
A VPS stays in the city it was built in. Order one in the new city, copy your data across, then send the delete request for the old one. Reboot, reinstall and delete are requests you send from the dashboard, carried out by a person. A reinstall erases the disk.
