The company holds ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification and is NIS-2 registered.

The business model is a subscription-recurring direct-to-consumer model across all product lines, with monthly or annual billing (annual offering better rates) and standard 23% Polish VAT applied. Pricing is highly competitive at the entry level (.pl domains from 0 PLN/year promotional, .eu from 10 PLN/year, .com from 40 PLN/year; CloudHosting basic plan promotional at 0 PLN) and scales up through resource tiers (up to 32 vCPU, 64 GB RAM, 10 TB storage). Revenue streams include domain renewals, hosting subscriptions, business email, VPS, SSL, SaaS, monitoring, Whois Privacy, and an affiliate referral program offering up to 50% commission to partners.
