GPUBank vs Nebius
Nebius is an Amsterdam-based AI cloud listed on Nasdaq that rents NVIDIA H100, H200, B200 and B300 by the GPU-hour, with GB200 and GB300 NVL72 on request. Its H100 SXM costs $3.85 per GPU-hour until 30 September 2026 and $4.50 from 1 October; GPUBank charges $1.85. Nebius has more regions, managed Kubernetes and Slurm, and a long list of certifications; GPUBank costs less on every GPU both of us rent and takes crypto.

The verdict
Newer GPUs, clusters and certifications at Nebius. Half the H100 price and crypto top-ups at GPUBank.
Nebius suits teams that need B300 or NVL72 capacity, InfiniBand clusters with managed Kubernetes or Slurm, and SOC 2 Type II or ISO 27001 paperwork. For the five GPUs both of us rent, GPUBank costs 36 to 65 % less per GPU-hour, and the gap grows on 1 October 2026 when Nebius raises its H100, H200, B200 and B300 prices. Both bill by the second, charge only for disks when an instance is stopped and include egress and public IPs. Nebius takes cards and, for companies, bank transfers; GPUBank takes crypto and needs no card.

Moving from Nebius takes an afternoon.
Nebius does not charge VM egress, so copying data off a VM costs nothing on its side. Standard Object Storage egress is billed at $0.015 per GiB.
- 1Launch the same GPU on GPUBank with a persistent disk in the region you need.
- 2Copy data from Nebius disks or shared filesystems with rsync, or from Object Storage with rclone.
- 3Run the same Docker image or pick the matching template, then delete Nebius VMs and disks.

A few things you might be wondering.
Yes. Nebius lists the H100 SXM at $3.85 per GPU-hour until 30 September 2026 and $4.50 from 1 October 2026. GPUBank charges $1.85 per GPU-hour, with vCPU, RAM, NVMe, IPv4 and traffic included.
Yes. From 1 October 2026 the H100 goes from $3.85 to $4.50, the H200 from $4.50 to $5.40, the B200 from $7.15 to $8.50 and the B300 from $7.85 to $9.50 per GPU-hour. The RTX PRO 6000 stays at $1.80.
Nebius does not mention crypto. It takes cards through Stripe and bank transfers for companies, and charges $25 when a card is added. GPUBank is paid from a USD balance topped up in Bitcoin, USDT, Ethereum and more than a dozen other coins, from $25.
Nebius. It builds clusters of 8-GPU VMs on InfiniBand at 400 Gbps per GPU, 800 Gbps on B300, with free managed Kubernetes and Slurm. GPUBank rents up to 8 GPUs per instance and does not sell clusters or managed Kubernetes.
Nebius has public regions in Finland, France, Spain and the UK, but each GPU is limited to a few of them and the H100 is offered only in Finland. GPUBank has two European regions, Paris and Frankfurt, plus Ashburn and Singapore, with one price per model.
Without. Every price on this page excludes VAT and sales tax, for Nebius and for GPUBank, so the two columns compare like for like. Tax is added at checkout according to where the buyer is based.
