A Njalla VPS alternative with more server per euro
Njalla is a respected privacy brand, but its VPS range is small and Sweden-only, with an entry plan published at €15 a month for 1 core, 1.5 GB of RAM and 15 GB of disk. Echelon VPS offers the same no-KYC, crypto-only approach with far more hardware per euro — Micro gives 2 vCPU, 4 GB DDR5 ECC and 50 GB NVMe for €3.10 a month on a 12-month term — in 42 cities across 31 countries. Both accept Monero; Echelon also takes USDT and USDC.

Where Echelon is the better fit
- You need more than one small box. Seven plans up to 16 vCPU / 128 GB / 1.6 TB NVMe.
- You need a location other than Sweden. 42 cities: Reykjavík, Zurich, Chișinău, Bucharest, Dubai, Hong Kong, Tokyo, São Paulo, Sydney and more.
- You pay in stablecoins. USDT on TRON or Ethereum and USDC are accepted.
- You want Windows. Windows Server with licence included.
- You run Tor. Relays everywhere; exit nodes in Amsterdam, Reykjavík, Chișinău and Bucharest.
Where Njalla still makes sense
If you want domain privacy registration and a small VPS from the same brand, or you specifically want Swedish hosting with PayPal as an option, Njalla covers that. For raw server value and location choice, Echelon goes further.

Before you buy
What will I really pay? The term price, once: e.g. Base €66 for 12 months (€5.50/month) or €41.40 for 6 months. Windows Server adds its licence as a separate line (€11/month on Base). No processing fee — only your wallet's network fee.
What if it isn't right? Full refund within 72 hours of your first payment.
What is not allowed? Anything our acceptable-use policy forbids; Tor exits only in Amsterdam, Reykjavík, Chișinău and Bucharest.
