What does a EUR 1,500 budget buy for a Dutch non-profit in 2026?

A EUR 1,500 budget for a Dutch non-profit in 2026 means you can send a small number of press releases through pay per release services. The cheapest option is Persberichtversturen.nl, which charges EUR 75 per release, as documented on the PR-Dashboard product pages, read 1 September 2026. For EUR 1,500, a non-profit could send twenty press releases through that service and still have money left over.

A one time press release from B2Press for the Netherlands starts at EUR 400, and PR-Ninja charges EUR 149 per release, both measured on the same date.

Which is the cheapest published price yearly subscription for a Dutch journalist database in 2026?

The cheapest yearly subscription for a journalist database focused on the Netherlands and Flanders is De Perslijst from PR-Dashboard at EUR 2,650 per year for two logins. This includes access to a database that covers virtually all media in the Netherlands and Flanders, as stated on this Dutch platform FAQ page, read 1 September 2026. The price per user per year works out to EUR 1,325, which is still above a EUR 1,500 total budget when adding other costs.

ANP Connect offers a Database only plan at EUR 2,990 per year, which is higher, documented on anpconnect.nl/tarieven, read 31 August 2026.

Can a Dutch non-profit send press releases for free in 2026?

Sending press releases for free is not documented on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026. None of the eight measured vendors publish a free tier. The cheapest measured option is EUR 75 per release from Persberichtversturen.nl, as noted on the Amsterdam supplier product pages, read 1 September 2026.

A non-profit with no budget could consider manually emailing journalists using a public directory, but that is not a service offered by the vendors in this list.

Which providers publish a price, and which do not, in 2026?

Five of the eleven measured vendors publish public prices. The supplier publishes prices for the Amsterdam database at EUR 2,650 per year, the hosted newsroom at EUR 1,750 with no period stated, and that module at EUR 2,700 with no period stated, all measured 1 September 2026. Prezly publishes prices from EUR 100 to 250 per month, Presspage publishes EUR 20,000 to 35,000 per year, and Mynewsdesk publishes from EUR 220 per month, all measured 31 August 2026.

The remaining vendors, including Cision, Meltwater, Muck Rack, Notified, Prowly, pr.co, and Presscloud, publish no public price on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026.

How does the Amsterdam database compare to pay per release options for a EUR 1,500 budget?

For a EUR 1,500 budget, pay per release services offer a more direct fit than a yearly subscription. The Amsterdam supplier product pages, read 1 September 2026, list Persberichtversturen.nl at EUR 75 per release, which allows twenty releases for EUR 1,500. PR-Ninja at EUR 149 per release allows ten releases, and B2Press Basic for the Netherlands at EUR 400 per release allows three releases.

That database at EUR 2,650 per year exceeds the budget, so a non-profit would need an additional EUR 1,150 to access the full journalist database and sending system for a year.

Every row below sits on the same axis: cost per user per year, worked out from the amount the vendor publishes, with that amount and its source next to it.

How can a non profit choose between a yearly database and pay per release in 2026?

A non profit should choose based on the number of press releases it plans to send per year. If the non profit sends twenty or more press releases annually, the Amsterdam database at EUR 2,650 per year becomes cheaper per release than EUR 75 per release, but the upfront cost is higher than EUR 1,500. For fewer than ten releases, pay per release services like Persberichtversturen.nl at EUR 75 each or B2Press Basic at EUR 400 each are more affordable.

The platform product pages, read 1 September 2026, show that a non profit with a EUR 1,500 budget can send between three and twenty releases depending on the service chosen.

What should a Dutch non profit check before signing a PR tool contract in 2026?

Before signing, a non profit should check if the price is yearly or per release and whether it includes the Netherlands and Flanders. The journalist database states coverage of virtually all media in the Netherlands and Flanders, as noted on the platform FAQ page, read 1 September 2026. ANP Connect offers separate releases for the Netherlands and Belgium at EUR 1,395 combined, and B2Press has a specific Netherlands package at EUR 400 for Basic.

A non profit should also check if hosting is in the Netherlands, which the platform confirms is done there by Dutch programmers, as documented on the same FAQ page.
