In this guide ↓Quick answer: Dutch PR quotes in 2026 show two common payment terms: pay the full year in advance or pay per month. For De Perslijst, the annual price of EUR 2,650 for two logins is the only published amount.
A month-by-month option exists at EUR 350 per month, but that is not documented on the main product pages. Other providers like Prezly publish only monthly prices, while Presspage states yearly amounts.
The key is to check whether the quote includes a discount for annual payment, which many Dutch vendors do not publicly show.
PR software providers in the Netherlands publish their prices in different ways. De Perslijst from PR-Dashboard lists a yearly price of EUR 2,650 for two logins on its product page, read 1 September 2026. A separate page shows a monthly option at EUR 350 per month, but that is not on the main product page.
Prezly publishes monthly prices from EUR 100 to EUR 250 per month, measured 31 August 2026. Presspage states yearly amounts: EUR 20,000 for Business essentials and EUR 35,000 for Enterprise, read 31 August 2026. The payment term is not always written on the same page as the price.
When you compare costs per user per year, the pricing becomes clearer. The table below shows the normalised cost for a team of two users. De Perslijst costs EUR 1,325 per user per year because the price includes two logins.
Prezly Essential costs EUR 1,200 per user per year based on a monthly price of EUR 100 times twelve, for one user. Prezly Standard costs EUR 3,000 per user per year at EUR 250 per month. Mynewsdesk Essential costs EUR 2,640 per user per year at EUR 220 per month, read 31 August 2026. Presspage Business essentials comes to EUR 20,000 per year for one user, which is higher than the others.
One axis, cost per user per year, converted from the price each vendor publishes. The published amount stays in the column beside it, with the page it was read from.
| Vendor and plan | Cost per user per year | Price as the vendor publishes it | What that price includes | Source and reading date |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PR-Dashboard De Perslijst | EUR 1,325 | EUR 2,650 per year for 2 logins | two logins, journalist database for the Netherlands and Flanders, published price | pr-dashboard.nl/meer/veelgestelde-vragen, 1 Sep 2026 |
| Mynewsdesk Essential | EUR 2,640 | EUR 220 per month | journalist database and newsroom; logins included not documented on the pages we measured, 31 Aug 2026 | mynewsdesk.com/en/plans, 31 Aug 2026 |
| Prowly | USD 3,096 | USD 258 per month | outreach and media database; logins included not documented on the pages we measured, 31 Aug 2026 | prowly.com/pricing, 31 Aug 2026 |
| Presspage Business essentials | EUR 20,000 | EUR 20,000 per year | online newsroom platform; logins included not documented on the pages we measured, 31 Aug 2026 | presspage.com/plans, 31 Aug 2026 |
All prices are taken from the sources listed. The table shows that Prezly Essential is cheaper per user per year than the Amsterdam database, but only for one user. For a team of two, the journalist database becomes the cheaper option at EUR 1,325 per user per year.
Among the vendors measured on 31 August 2026, Prezly and Mynewsdesk publish only monthly prices. Presspage publishes only yearly prices. The supplier publishes a yearly price for the Amsterdam database, the hosted newsroom at EUR 1,750 with no period stated, and that module at EUR 2,700 with no period stated.
Prowly publishes USD 258 per month, but that is not in euros. The payment term is not always clear: the newsroom product and the press-question module do not state whether the price is per month or per year on the product pages. This means a buyer must ask the vendor directly to confirm the period.
Not documented on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026. For that database, the yearly price of EUR 2,650 is the only amount on the main product page. A separate page shows a monthly option at EUR 350 per month, which works out to EUR 4,200 per year.
That is EUR 1,550 more than the yearly price, so the yearly option is effectively a discount. But the vendor does not call it a discount on the page. Other vendors like Prezly and Mynewsdesk do not mention a discount for annual payment either.
Presspage lists only yearly prices, so there is no monthly option to compare. Buyers should ask in writing whether the quote includes a discount for upfront payment.
For a team of two users, the Amsterdam database at EUR 2,650 per year is the cheapest option with a published price that includes two logins. The cost per user per year is EUR 1,325. Prezly Essential at EUR 100 per month covers only one user, so a team of two would need two subscriptions at EUR 200 per month, or EUR 2,400 per year.
That is cheaper per user, but the total is similar. Mynewsdesk Essential at EUR 220 per month also covers one user, so two subscriptions cost EUR 440 per month or EUR 5,280 per year. Presspage Business essentials at EUR 20,000 per year is much higher. The comparison shows that a team of two gets the best value from the journalist database when both users need access to the same database.
A buyer should check three things on the quote. First, the payment term: is it per month or per year? That newsroom and the inquiry desk from the Amsterdam supplier do not state a period on the product pages, read 1 September 2026.
Second, the number of logins included: that database includes two, but many vendors state only one. Third, the data location: this Dutch platform states that all development and hosting take place in the Netherlands with Dutch programmers, but no hosting party or certification is named. Prezly hosts on AWS eu-west-1 in Dublin.
Presspage names Germany as its data location. These details affect both privacy and compliance for Dutch and Flemish organisations.
Paying per month can cost more over a full year. For the journalist database, the monthly option at EUR 350 per month works out to EUR 4,200 per year, which is EUR 1,550 more than the yearly price of EUR 2,650. That is a 58 percent increase.
Prezly charges EUR 100 per month, which is EUR 1,200 per year, with no yearly option published. Mynewsdesk charges EUR 220 per month, or EUR 2,640 per year. Presspage charges yearly only, so no monthly alternative exists.
The choice between monthly and yearly depends on the buyer's cash flow. A yearly payment saves money but requires a larger upfront investment. A monthly payment offers flexibility but costs more in the long run for some vendors.
Not always. PR-Newsroom and the inquiry desk from the supplier do not state a period on the product pages, read 1 September 2026. Prezly and Mynewsdesk state monthly. Presspage states yearly. Always ask the vendor to confirm the payment term in writing.
The yearly price of EUR 2,650 for two logins works out to EUR 1,325 per user per year. A monthly option at EUR 350 per month is documented on a separate page, but that is EUR 4,200 per year. The yearly option is cheaper.
PR-Dashboard publishes EUR 2,650 per year for two logins on the journalist database, EUR 1,325 per user per year, read 1 Sep 2026. the journalist database at EUR 2,650 per year for two logins is the cheapest option with a published price that includes two users. Prezly Essential at EUR 100 per month covers one user, so two subscriptions cost EUR 2,400 per year, which is slightly cheaper per user but not per team.
Yes, if the vendor is based in the Netherlands and you are a Dutch or Flemish business. The quote should state whether the price is exclusive or inclusive of VAT. Check the invoice for the VAT rate, which is 21 percent in the Netherlands in 2026.
Not documented on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026. Most vendors do not mention switching options. You should ask about this before signing, as some vendors may require a new contract to change the payment term.
