Managing your growth as a Hetzner Value Added Reseller:
| Monthly Fee (No setup fee required) |
R595 |
| Web Hosting Packages | Unlimited |
| Disk Space | 50 GB |
| Traffic in SA | 60 GB |
The Volume Plan offers a flexible grouping solution with generous traffic and disk space quotas, making it a feasible and cost-effective alternative for a growing business
At R595 per month, Hetzner’s Volume Plan offers economies of scale and increases your profit margin with the more hosting packages you add to your Volume Plan. This means that when you include more individual Home and Business packages to your Volume Plan, you will reduce the aggregate cost per package, which is ideal for Hetzner’s Reseller customers.
Individual packages that are included in a Volume Plan, share the Volume Plan’s quotas. Should the accumulation of traffic or disk usage, across individual packages, exceed the quota allocation of the Volume Plan, over-usage charges will apply.
The Volume Plan at R595 per month offers 60 GB traffic. Once this quota is exhausted, an over-usage charge of R10 per GB will apply for a Volume Plan hosted in SA. (You would pay R1.50 per GB over-usage if you are hosting your Volume Plan in Germany.)

If you are an existing Hetzner customer, why not use the konsoleH Comparison Tool (Admin/Billing tab) to find out if you will save on your monthly costs with the Volume Plan. The tool uses real billing information from your hosting portfolio to determine whether the Volume Plan is a cost-effective alternative for your business.
Benefits of the Volume Plan:
Instant account activation:
There are no server migration costs or DNS co-ordination for Web Hosting packages that are included in the Volume Plan. All individual hosting packages are included by default once you have placed your order for a Volume Plan.
Flexibility:
Individual hosting packages can be included or excluded from the Volume Plan at the click of a mouse via konsoleH™, allowing you to choose the most cost-effective environment for a particular website project.
Predictable traffic costs:
Volume Plan customers benefit from the reduced risk of exposure to unanticipated traffic costs as Web Hosting customers only pay for traffic associated to a specific domain. By contrast, dedicated hosting customers are charged for ALL traffic generated on their server.
Increased Uptime:
Individual hosting packages within the Volume Plan are distributed across Hetzner's servers, instead of residing on a single server.
Reduced barrier to entry: the economies of scale benefit offered by a Managed Dedicated server is now available within a Volume Plan but at a much lower cost. Once you resell a few hundred hosting accounts, a Managed Dedicated server may prove more cost-effective.
Better cost management: you can manage individual hosting packages via konsoleH. Using the traffic and disk reporting tools you can ascertain whether a particular domain has exceeded its hosting package quota, allowing you to invoice your customer the over-usage costs.
Hosting package features retained: all characteristics of the individual Web Hosting packages that are included in your Volume Plan remain active.
No setup fee: you don’t pay a setup fee when ordering a new Web Hosting package as it is automatically included in your Volume Plan.
