| Free tier | No free tier and no trial stated in prose. The plans page carries a checkout option id 'Ultimate-VPN-12Mo-FreeTrial-50GB', which suggests a 50 GB trial exists on the 12-month Ultimate plan, but no sentence on the page describes it. unit none; metered on none |
|---|---|
| Price | EUR 5.83 (Fast, 12-month term, 50 Mbit) |
| Limits |
Annual prices from the plan table: Fast EUR 69.95 (EUR 5.83/mo), Lightning EUR 89.95 (EUR 7.50/mo), Ultimate + VPN EUR 108.78 (EUR 9.07/mo). Monthly prices seen in the same page markup are EUR 7.95, 9.95 and 12.95; the table shows the 12-month term by default. |
| Binding | none Ultimate + VPN is unlimited speed and unlimited volume with 60 connections; no fair-use number is published, so nothing in the vocabulary binds at 1 TiB/month. |
| Identity | card Email plus a paid plan. No card-free path is described; the only trial signal is a checkout option id with no prose. |
| Egress | Unlimited downloads on every plan; speed is capped by tier rather than by volume free allowance: unlimited |
| Per-object cap | no per-object cap is published |
| Retention | 6,000 Days article retention, in the plan table (6000 days) |
| Interface | nntp NNTP over TLS on port 563; no HTTP or object API exists for the download path, so a user drives it through SABnzbd, NZBGet or nzbdav |
| Composes with | A low-speed primary for a client whose line is under 50 Mbit on the Fast tier; it stacks with an Abavia block for completion and duplicates the Omicron spool if paired with Newshosting. |
| Reliability | Base IP BV infrastructure (AS34305), the Dutch arm of the Omicron group. A cached virtual version of the Eweka spool rather than a fourth independent archive. |
| Evidence note | documented Plan prices, speeds, connections and retention come from the vendor's own plan table markup read. The trial is left unclaimed because no prose supports it. |
