cPanel Price Increase Effective 1 January 2026

Cork, 14.11.2025 – As part of its regular licensing review, WebPros has announced a new increase to the cPanel price, effective 1 January 2026. This update follows a now familiar pattern: in the final quarter of the year, revised cPanel pricing is communicated for the upcoming period, giving hosting providers a limited window to assess the impact on their services and pricing models.

Because cPanel remains one of the most widely adopted control panels in the hosting industry, any change to the cPanel price has a direct and measurable effect on operating costs. Under the current account-based licensing model, providers pay more as the number of active cPanel accounts grows. From 1 January 2026, this will translate into higher monthly licensing expenses, particularly for shared, reseller and managed hosting environments with a larger number of accounts.

For end customers, this means that certain adjustments to hosting prices during 2026 are increasingly likely. While many providers, including ourselves, will strive to absorb part of the increase in the cPanel price to protect existing clients, long-term sustainability requires that at least a portion of the higher licensing cost is reflected in hosting plans. This is especially relevant for packages that include multiple domains or accounts as standard.

At the same time, it is important to underline that cPanel continues to evolve in a positive direction. With each new release, the platform delivers enhanced security, improved performance and an ever more intuitive user experience. Stronger authentication, regular security patches, streamlined backup integrations and tighter compatibility with popular platforms such as WordPress all contribute to a more robust and reliable environment. In this context, the rising cPanel price is also linked to ongoing investment in product development, hardening and usability.

As a hosting provider, our priority is to maintain a transparent and predictable pricing structure. Over the coming weeks we will:

• review the new licensing conditions effective from 1 January 2026,
• optimise our internal use of cPanel accounts where possible, and
• adjust hosting packages only where it is strictly necessary to preserve service quality and security.

Any confirmed changes to our hosting price list resulting from the updated cPanel price will be communicated to customers clearly and well in advance. Our goal is to ensure that you can plan your budgets and digital projects with confidence, without unexpected surprises.

If you have any questions about how the 2026 cPanel price adjustment might affect your current hosting package, our support team is available to provide individual guidance, cost projections and potential optimisation options.

Thank you for your continued support.
