Copy your desired voucher code from our list. For product-specific vouchers (RS, VPS, Webhosting), open an empty shopping cart at netcup.com/en/checkout/cart, paste the code into the 'Redeem voucher' box at the bottom, and click Redeem. For the €5 new customer voucher, add a product to your cart first before pasting the code.
Yes. All product-specific vouchers (RS G12.5 free months, VPS G12.5 free months, and Webhosting 30% lifetime discount) work for both new and existing customers. Only the €5.00 general cart voucher (36nc...) is limited to new customers' first orders.
Yes. Every voucher code is completely free to use and verified automatically against Netcup's system. The exact UTC timestamp of the latest API sync is displayed in the top status bar.
Under German tax law (§ 3a Abs. 2 UStG), customers residing outside the European Union (such as the US, UK, China, Switzerland, or Canada) are exempt from the 19% German VAT. Select your actual country during registration (without using a VPN) and your account will be billed at 0% VAT automatically.
Yes. The 30% discount code for Webhosting 2000, 4000, and 8000 is a permanent lifetime recurring discount that remains active for as long as you keep the plan, including the 3 to 12 inclusive .de domains.
Root Servers (RS G12.5) run on AMD EPYC 9645 96-Core Processor hardware (2296.548 MHz / 2.30 GHz) with DDR5 ECC RAM and NVMe storage (187.3k 4k IOPS / 4.34 GB/s 1m in YABS). VPS G12.5 plans run on AMD EPYC-Rome Processor hardware (2.00 GHz) at a lower price point.
Netcup routes an entire /64 IPv6 subnet to your KVM interface via link-local gateway fe80::1. In /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml, assign your SCP prefix (e.g. 2a0a:4cc0:xxxx:xxxx::1/64) to your primary interface and add a default route to ::/0 via fe80::1. See our Copy-Paste DevOps Blueprints section above for the complete Netplan file.
Yes. Inside the Netcup Server Control Panel (SCP), you can mount official Debian, Ubuntu, NixOS, FreeBSD, Proxmox VE, or Windows Server ISOs (or upload your own ISO) and install via the browser KVM console. Note that in YABS, VM-x/AMD-V is disabled on standard KVM guests, making LXC containers and Docker the preferred virtualization layer.
Netcup's price-optimized vServer Lite lineup starts with VPS pico G11.5s (1 vCore x86, 1 GB RAM, 30 GB SSD) at €1.85/mo (incl. 0% VAT, 12m contract), VPS nano G11.5s at €3.10/mo, and VPS Lite 1 G12.5s at €4.92/mo. ARM64 cloud servers start with VPS 500 ARM G12.5 (2 vCore ARM64, 4 GB RAM, 64 GB NVMe) at €6.94/mo (incl. 0% VAT, 12m). Webhosting starts with Webhosting 1000 (50 GB SSD, 1 .de domain, SSH & SSL) at €2.26/mo (incl. 0% VAT).
Yes, all G12.5 Root Servers and VPS plans include unmetered traffic (Flatrate) with €0 overage charges. In YABS iperf3 tests, Vienna AS47147 reaches 2.73 Gbits/sec to Amsterdam (100G) and 2.68 Gbits/sec to London (10G). Only if an instance exceeds 2 TB – 3 TB of continuous transfer within a rolling 24-hour window will the port temporarily soft-throttle to 200–300 Mbps.
In 2026 independent benchmarks, Netcup RS 1000 G12.5 (€18.26/mo net, or €15.22/mo effective with a 2 Months Free voucher) delivers 4 dedicated AMD EPYC 9645 cores (Geekbench 6: 2290 Single / 7559 Multi), 8 GB DDR5 ECC RAM, 187.3k 4k NVMe IOPS, free primary IPv4 + /64 IPv6, and a 2.5 Gbps unmetered flatrate—outperforming Hetzner CCX13 (2 vCPUs, 20 TB traffic cap, paid IPv4) on multi-core compute and included bandwidth.
Always place your first order using a product voucher in the shopping cart (never register an empty account). Disable all VPNs/proxies so your IP country matches your billing address country and phone code, include a specific house/building number in the street field without special symbols (# or /), and if requested by support, provide a photo ID or utility bill for instant manual approval.
Netcup contracts must be cancelled at least 31 days before the end of the current contract period (Kündigungsfrist) to prevent automatic renewal. Log into the Customer Control Panel (CCP at customercontrolpanel.de), open 'Products', select your server, and click 'Cancel contract'—you can schedule cancellation for the end of your term immediately after ordering.
