What is the Hetzner partner program?
Hetzner runs a referral program that grants account credit when a referred customer signs up and spends.
Its aggressive price-performance makes it popular among cost-conscious developers in Europe and beyond.
How the program works
You share a referral link or code; when the new customer meets spend criteria, both parties receive account credit.
Requirements to join
An active Hetzner account; referred users must be genuinely new customers.
How partners win with Hetzner
Communities and heavy users effectively offset their own bills through accumulated referral credit.
What to watch out for
Rewards are account credit, not cash payouts, which limits appeal for professional affiliates.
