Hetzner Cloud price (October 2026) and how to cancel
In the US/EU (as of 2026-10-18), Hetzner Cloud pricing / price-adjustment Docs list small shared instances from about $6.49/mo (EU CX23, excl. VAT/IPv4) to about $20.49/mo (US CPX11 after the June 2026 adjustment) - Confirm console. Stop billing by deleting servers/volumes, then close the account in Cloud Console → Security.
Powered-off servers can still bill. Uninstalling the CLI does not cancel.
Account owner required. Snapshot/export before delete. Prices exclude VAT; IPv4 may be extra.
