| Free tier | No free tier on this plan. Mikrus 1.0 is PLN 35 a year gross, printed '35 zł / rok (brutto)'. The vendor also runs a separate free product, FROG, at 256 MB and 3 GB, which requires a one-off deposit of at least PLN 5 as identity verification and is restricted to users in Poland. unit none; metered on none |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Per-object cap | not applicable |
| Retention | annual prepay; the terms allow withdrawal within 14 days if the delivered server does not match the advertised resources. The separate free FROG service deletes servers nobody has logged into for 3 months. (14 days) |
| Egress | no byte allowance published on the plan card; the vendor's IPv6 article states 'Nie limitujemy, ile portów zużyjesz na adresacji prywatnej oraz ile wykorzystasz na adresacji IPv6' (we do not limit how much you use on private addressing or on IPv6 addressing) free_allowance: not published |
| Identity | card the order form requires a real first name, last name and email address: the terms state 'Podczas składania zamówienia niezbędne jest podanie prawdziwego imienia, nazwiska oraz adresu e-mail'. Payment is by Polish bank transfer through the TPAY processor (Krajowy Integrator Płatności S.A.), which passes the buyer's address data back to the vendor, so a bank account is the instrument rather than a card. VAT invoices are issued on request to a company or a private individual. No national ID number is requested. |
| Limits |
|
| Binding | per-ip-shaping three forwarded ports, only two of which are freely usable, is a smaller inbound budget than any other in-stock row, and the two free ports carry both protocols so one of them goes to WireGuard. |
| Interface | ssh LXC container with full root, in Finland, managed entirely over SSH; a panel at ssp.mikr.us handles restart, reinstall and password changes |
| Tooling | any SSH client; the vendor's panel; free subdomains and automatic HTTPS for web services |
| Composes with | a 384 MB container at USD 0.7429 a month whose three forwarded ports include two that carry both TCP and UDP, in a Polish-language product built around IPv6-mostly addressing |
| Reliability | the vendor states its servers run in 'głównie IPv6' (mostly IPv6) mode rather than IPv6-only, and publishes an article explaining the trade-off; no uptime figure or SLA published |
| Notes | The only row that is genuinely built around IPv6 by design rather than as a way to avoid buying IPv4: the vendor publishes an article explaining that its servers run in 'głównie IPv6' mode, not IPv6-only, and that it deliberately keeps IPv4 scarce so it does not have to buy addresses at about USD 57 each. That is a first-party account of the economics, in Polish, and it is the kind of thing an English search does not surface. The port story is better than the headline suggests and worse than the best rows here: three ports to start, of which two are freely usable, and both of those carry TCP and UDP - the vendor names OpenVPN and WireGuard explicitly - with five more TCP ports free from the panel for a ceiling of seven. At PLN 35 a year gross, which is USD 8.915 a year or USD 0.7429 a month at 3.9261 PLN per USD read today, 384 MB and 5 GB NVMe in Finland is good value. Two things hold it to a caveat. The identity story is a bank transfer through a Polish payment processor that passes the buyer's address back to the vendor, and the terms require a real first name and surname, so this is not an email-only signup; a foreign buyer without a Polish bank account has no published route. And no traffic allowance is published anywhere, which is a documented absence rather than a limit and cannot be used in arithmetic. The VAT ID PL6821639338 is printed in the site metadata and the vendor states it issues VAT invoices, which is more entity disclosure than most rows, though the trading company name behind the VAT number was not read. The separate free FROG product is Poland-only and requires a PLN 5 identity deposit, so it is not available for a user. What is not established: the payment step, since the cart was not exercised, and whether a non-Polish bank transfer is accepted. |
| Evidence rung | documented price, shape, location, the VAT invoice option and the order-field requirement are quoted from the vendor's own order page and terms read today; the port scheme, the dual TCP/UDP capability and the IPv6-mostly design are quoted from the vendor's own wiki article read today; the VAT ID is quoted from the vendor's own site metadata. The cart was not exercised, so the payment step is documented from the terms rather than observed. |

Mikrus FROG Egress and tunnels
caveatemailno cardRper-ip-shaping
| Free tier | FROG - free, one-time activation fee: 256 MB RAM, 3 GB disk, Finland, 0 PLN per year. [translated] unit unlimited; metered on unstated |
|---|---|
| Price | USD 0 |
| Per-object cap | not applicable |
| Retention | not applicable |
| Egress | The vendor plan table does not state a traffic figure for FROG; a Chinese-language listing says unlimited traffic.; ingress: udp free_allowance: none published |
| Identity | email Account registration on a Polish shop; the free plan carries a one-time activation fee. |
| Limits | |
| Binding | per-ip-shaping The vendor publishes no byte cap, so no volume quota exists to fail. What does fail is the shared 1 Gbps link and, per a third-party listing, a block on traffic to Asia, which for an Asian audience makes the box useless before any quota is reached. The Asia block is the real binder; the shaper is the vocabulary kind that carries it. |
| Interface | ssh Root SSH; the vendor sells annual plans and one free plan. |
| Tooling | ssh, wg-quick |
| Composes with | A European WG endpoint with no byte cap, if the Asia block does not matter for a user's users. |
| Reliability | A third-party listing says traffic from Asia is blocked and only Alpine is supported. |
| Notes | Interesting because it is the only free NAT box in the sweep with an unlimited-traffic claim and a European address. Two caveats from the listing: a small activation fee, and traffic to Asia blocked, which would make it useless as an ingress point for Asian visitors. |
| Evidence rung | reported The free plan and its specs are on the vendor page today; unlimited traffic and the Asia block are from a Chinese-language listing. Opening frog.mikr.us would settle both. |

Mikrus FROG Compute
fails: identitynational-idno cardRwrite-gated
| Free tier | A free LXC container: 256 MB RAM, 3 GB disk, Alpine Linux, managed at ssp.mikr.us. The vendor's own page states the service is for users in Poland. The live origin returned a Polish-only block page on the day read, so the specification is taken from the search index's cached copy of the vendor's own page, not from a live read. unit MB; metered on wall-clock; the shape is reported, not documented: the live page was refused. See evidence for the exact 403 body |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Per-object cap | not applicable: the unit is a container, not an object |
| Retention | Reported from the cached copy: 'Serwery, na które nikt nie logował się przez 3 miesiące, są usuwane.' (servers nobody has logged into for 3 months are deleted). (90 days) |
| Egress | not stated on the cached page and not readable live free_allowance: unstated |
| Identity | national-id Two gates. First, the offer is limited to Poland: the live origin served a block page reading 'The FROG service is intended for Polish users only. Even if you use a VPN, if we detect that you are not Polish, you will lose your account.' Second, the cached vendor page states a one-off payment of at least PLN 5 is required as identity verification. No card is stored, but the payment is a bank transfer and the account is conditional on being in Poland. |
| Limits |
The server is deleted after three months without a login, and the service states it is intended for users in Poland, so the free unit survives only with a recurring manual login. |
| Binding | write-gated the free server is not free of payment: a one-off minimum PLN 5 transfer is the identity gate, and on top of it the service refuses non-Polish users outright |
| Interface | unknown inferred from the tooling the provider documents; not probed |
| Tooling | not stated |
| Composes with | PLN 35 (about EUR 8) a year for 384 MB and 5 GB on the paid ladder makes this the cheapest documented European VPS floor the free FROG tier is the same operator's loss leader into it. |
| Reliability | no reliability event observed; the origin refused every read from outside Poland with HTTP 403 on 2026-10-24, which is the geo gate working as documented |
| Notes | Not in dossier/compute before this record. Recorded as fails-identity rather than skipped because the vendor publishes a working free LXC offer that reads as available on every list that aggregates it, and the block is invisible to those lists. The 403 body is the finding: this is a case where an aggregator's snippet shows a live offer and the origin refuses the client. What could not be established: the traffic allowance, the exact IPv6/IPv4 arrangement, and whether the PLN 5 is refunded. What would settle them: a read from a Polish address. |
| Evidence rung | reported the shape, the retention clock and the PLN 5 gate come from the search index's cached copy of the vendor's own page; the live origin served only a Polish-only block page, so none of it was read first-hand. The geo restriction itself is documented, from the live 403 body |
