Google Cloud lists 5 configurations from $50; Hetzner lists 2 configurations from $50. Both figures are listed prices from the Buy Cloud Mart catalogue.
How these two compare
Google Cloud and Hetzner sit in different places in the Buy Cloud Mart catalogue, and the practical difference shows up in how many ways you can buy each one. The Google Cloud listing carries 5 configurations, priced $50 to $350, while Hetzner carries 2 configurations, priced $50 to $90. Google Cloud is the option with billing-state options alongside a large credit tier; Hetzner is the option with accounts sized by how many servers they carry.
Both lines start at the same listed figure, $50, so entry price is not the deciding factor here. What separates them is the shape of the range above that entry point and the kind of configuration each one actually offers.
Data residency is the clearest split in this pairing. Hetzner is listed here with a European footprint, while Google Cloud is listed as global. If a project has a stated requirement to keep workloads inside Europe, that constraint usually settles the choice before pricing enters the discussion.

Who may prefer Google Cloud
Google Cloud is worth reviewing first if the configuration you need is actually on its list. Its catalogue entries are Payment Required Random, $300 + $10 Prepaid, Pay As You Go $10 Payment Required, Pay As You Go 20 CAD Payment Required and others, so if one of those names matches the shape of your project, the decision is straightforward. Teams that want room to move up a ladder of sizes tend to start here.
Who may prefer Hetzner
Hetzner is the better first look if your requirement leans the other way. It lists Hetzner 5 Server Account, Hetzner 10 Server Account. Each option names exactly what it contains, which suits buyers who already know what they need and want to order without weighing tiers against each other.
Before you order either one
Whichever side you choose, the same checks apply. Confirm the configuration and any credit balance on the product page before ordering, and after handover change the root email where possible, enable multi-factor authentication, create a separate administrative user and review the billing settings. Credit terms are set by the cloud platform, not by Buy Cloud Mart, so verify any balance inside the provider’s own billing console once the account is yours.
