Pricing · VAT included
Three plans. One monthly price, VAT included.
Every plan has the same encryption on your server, the same append-only storage in France and the same one-command restore. Plans differ in three things only: how many servers, how often they are backed up, and how far back you can go.
Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial. No card. Cancel anytime.

Your 14 days, stop by stop.
No card, no small print. Here is everything that happens between signing up and day 21.
Day 0
Sign up
Email and password, no card. The trial runs on the Essentiel plan, up to 5 GB and 1 server. Confirm your email, then create an API key in your dashboard.
Day 0
Install
Paste one command on your server. The agent shows what it will back up, runs the first backup and shows your recovery key once: put it in your password manager.
curl -fsSL https://neverwiped.com/install.sh | shDay 1
Test the way back
Restore into a spare folder, look inside, delete it. Now you know it works.
neverwiped restore latest --target /root/test-restoreDays 1–13
Backups run
On the Essentiel schedule: once a week, at a fixed time at night. Run one yourself whenever you like with
neverwiped backup now. If one fails or none runs for a while, you get an email.Before day 14
Choose a plan, or don’t
Pick a plan and add a card or a SEPA mandate in your dashboard: backups and history carry on, nothing to reinstall. Or do nothing: there is no card on file, so nothing is ever charged.
Day 14
The trial ends without a plan
New backups pause. Everything already saved stays readable and restore keeps working. We email you the date your trial backups will be deleted.
neverwiped restore latest --target /root/restoreDay 21
Trial backups deleted
7 days after the end of the trial, the trial backups are deleted from the storage, and we email you when it is done. Your account stays: choose a plan any time to start again.
05 · Stopping
What happens if you stop paying.
You cancel
- Cancel from your dashboard whenever you want. No commitment, no fee.
- Backups keep running until the end of the month you paid for. The month already started is not refunded, in part or in full, except under a consumer’s 14-day withdrawal right (see Refunds and cancellation).
- Then new backups stop, restore keeps working, and your backups are deleted 30 days later. We email you the date first.
A payment fails
- Day 0Email with a link to update your card or mandate. Backups continue.
- Day 3Reminder and a new payment attempt.
- Day 7Last reminder and last attempt.
- Day 10New backups are suspended. Restore still works.
- Day 31Notice: your backups will be deleted in 14 days.
- Day 45Backups deleted. Your account and invoices are kept.
A successful payment at any step stops the sequence and backups resume on their own.
06 · Questions
Price, trust, and the way out.
Why pay when I could script it myself?
You could. For €4.90 a month, or €3.30 per server with 3 servers on Pro, you skip the weekend of scripting and get encryption done right, append-only storage in France, consistent database dumps, an email when a backup fails or stops running, and a restore path that is documented and tested.
Is the price per server?
No, per plan. Essentiel covers up to 1 server, Pro covers up to 3 servers, Business covers up to 10 servers, and their storage is shared. You pay one monthly price, whatever the number of servers within the limit. With two servers or more, Pro is the plan to look at: an account holds one plan, and Essentiel covers one server.
What if I go over my storage?
We email you at 90 %. Once storage is full, new backups fail but every backup already kept stays intact and restorable. Exclude bulky files you don’t need, or move up a plan.
Can I change plans?
Yes, from the dashboard. Moving up takes effect at once, prorated. Moving down takes effect at the end of the period; we show you what changes before you confirm.
Why would I trust you with my data?
You don’t hand us your data, only locked blocks. Encryption happens on your server with restic, an open-source tool, and the key never leaves your machine. We could not read your backups even if we wanted to.
Where is my data?
Your backups (the content of your server) are encrypted on your server and stored in France; they don’t pass through our platform. Your account data (email, billing, backup dates, sizes and server names) lives on our platform, hosted in the EU; details in the privacy policy.
What if NeverWiped disappears?
No lock-in. Your backups are a standard restic repository and the key is yours. Any time you like, one command pulls a full copy into a folder you control, and open-source restic can read the repository on its own, with your recovery key, as long as the repository is reachable. A copy on your own disk doesn’t depend on us at all. Plainly: if our storage vanished overnight, restic could not reach it either; only the copies you pulled would be left. So schedule your own copy: a nightly neverwiped restore latest into a folder on another disk (shown below), or restic copy into a restic repository of your own, with your recovery key.
neverwiped restore latest --target /root/restore
echo '30 6 * * * root /usr/local/bin/neverwiped restore latest --target /mnt/other-disk/neverwiped-copy --yes' > /etc/cron.d/neverwiped-copy
restic snapshots
restic restore latest --target /root/restore
Do you offer a USD price or yearly billing?
No. Prices are in euros, per month, and that is all we sell today.
07 · VAT
About VAT.
- Prices include French VAT at 20 %: that is the final price for consumers billed at the French rate.
- Consumers elsewhere in the EU pay the VAT rate of their own country, as EU rules require; the price before VAT stays the same, so the total can differ slightly.
- EU businesses with a VAT number checked against VIES are invoiced without VAT (reverse charge).
- We can’t take customers outside the EU yet.
- Invoices are issued once the payment is collected, in your dashboard.
Essentiel: €4.90 incl. VAT = €4.08 before VAT. · Pro: €9.90 incl. VAT = €8.25 before VAT. · Business: €19.90 incl. VAT = €16.58 before VAT.
