Hosting
What is the difference between shared hosting and VPS?
With shared hosting you share a server with other websites, which is cost-effective but offers limited resources. A VPS (Virtual Private Server) gives you guaranteed resources and more control, as if you had your own server. A VPS is ideal for growing websites that need more performance.
How much bandwidth do I need?
The bandwidth (data traffic) you need depends on the number of visitors and the content of your website. As a rule of thumb:
Small website: 1-5 GB per month (up to 1,000 visitors)
Medium website: 5-20 GB per month (1,000-10,000 visitors)
Large website: 20+ GB per month (10,000+ visitors)
The plan comparison shows how much data traffic each plan includes. If your website outgrows it, you can easily switch to a larger plan.
Can I easily migrate my website to Venimo?
Yes! We offer free website migration for all new customers. Our technical team makes sure your website is moved without downtime. We migrate your files, databases and email accounts and make sure everything works before we change the DNS.
Do you make automatic backups?
Yes, we make automatic daily backups of all websites. These backups are kept for 30 days and you can easily restore them via your control panel. For extra certainty, we recommend also making your own backups of important changes.
Domains
How long does it take before my domain is active?
Most domains (.nl, .com, .org) are active within a few minutes to an hour. DNS propagation can take up to 24-48 hours before your domain is reachable worldwide. You can usually visit your website within an hour of registration.
Can I transfer my domain to Venimo?
Yes, you can easily transfer your domain to Venimo. The process differs per domain type:
.nl domains: free transfer via SIDN, usually within 1 day
International domains: transfer with an EPP/auth code, 5-7 days
Email and DNS: keep working during the transfer
We are happy to help with the transfer and make sure everything goes smoothly.
What happens if I forget to renew my domain?
We send a renewal invoice 14 days before the end of the period and a reminder 3 days before. If auto-renewal is on and the invoice is paid, your domain simply continues.
If a domain does expire, it can often still be restored for some time, depending on the extension; sometimes at extra cost. After that the domain may become available for registration by others. If in doubt, contact support right away.
Do I get free email addresses with my domain?
Every hosting plan includes email addresses on your own domain (e.g. info@yourdomain.com). The plan comparison shows how many email accounts each plan includes.
You can use your email via webmail, Outlook, Apple Mail and other email programs, with spam filtering and virus scanning.

Billing
Which payment methods do you accept?
You pay securely via Stripe. On the payment page you choose how to pay, for example with iDEAL | Wero, credit card or Bancontact. The available methods are shown on that page.
We never see or store your bank or card details. A payment is processed immediately.
Can I pay monthly or only yearly?
You choose monthly or yearly billing per plan. With yearly billing you pay less per month; each plan shows the difference.

How can I cancel my subscription?
You can easily cancel by turning off auto-renewal for the service in your customer panel, or by emailing support@venimo.nl. There is no notice period - your service stays active until the end of your paid period. We only ask why you are leaving so we can improve our service.
