TransIP review
A capable shared host for small sites that need developer access and daily backups.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
TransIP provides shared web hosting for small to medium-sized websites, content-management systems and online shops. The web-based service combines storage, email mailboxes, databases, SSL certificates, backups and unlimited data transfer. Customers can choose plans for one, three or five websites, with one-click WordPress installation, unlimited domain aliases, SFTP access, secure SSH access and Git integration with AutoGit. Its infrastructure and customer data are located in the Netherlands.
Pricing is structured around website count and resource allocation. The 1 Website plan costs €9.99 per month and includes 20 GB of storage, five email mailboxes of 2 GB each, one database, 14 days of backups and a free SSL certificate. The 3 Websites plan costs €15.99 per month, increasing capacity to 100 GB, three websites, 10 email mailboxes of 2 GB each, 100 databases and 30 days of backups. At €29.99 per month, the 5 Websites plan includes 250 GB, five websites, 25 email mailboxes of 2 GB each, unlimited databases and 30 days of backups. Prices exclude VAT.
The main distinction is its fit for site owners and developers who want shared hosting with direct server access. SSH, SFTP, Git and AutoGit support make it more suitable for development workflows than a hosting package focused only on visual site management. WordPress is the named integration, while the broader feature set covers core hosting needs rather than a wide ecosystem of connected services. TransIP is a strong choice for small sites, CMS projects and online shops that need Git or SSH access, daily backups and room for several websites. It is less suitable for teams seeking broad native integrations or hosting needs beyond the five-website plan structure.
