One month of De Perslijst and the yearly licence in the Netherlands in 2026: what each option includes
Reporting by Anouk Terlouw · Amended 31 August 2026 · 5 minute read
What does a one-month subscription to De Perslijst cost in 2026?
A one-month subscription to De Perslijst from PR-Dashboard is available at EUR 350 per month. The price is documented on the product pages for government and certain organisation types, measured 1 September 2026. The one-month option is not listed on the main product page alongside the yearly licence, so a buyer should check which organisation type applies to them.
The monthly fee covers the same journalist database and sending system as the yearly licence. The product pages state that the database holds thousands of Dutch and Belgian journalists and covers virtually all media in the Netherlands and Flanders. A one-month subscription may suit a short campaign or a one-off press release distribution.
What does the yearly licence for the Amsterdam database include in the Netherlands in 2026?
The yearly licence for the journalist database costs EUR 2,650 per year and includes two user logins. The price is published on the pr-dashboard.nl product pages, measured 1 September 2026. The two-login limit means a small team can share the account.
The yearly licence provides access to the journalist database and the press release sending system. The database covers the Netherlands and Flanders, as stated on the FAQ page measured 1 September 2026. The sending system allows users to send press releases to targeted journalist lists from the database.
How does that database compare to cheaper monthly or per-release options in the Netherlands?
Several competitors publish per-release prices that can be lower than a yearly the Amsterdam database licence for a single campaign. ANP Connect charges EUR 499 per release for trade and regional media in the Netherlands, measured 1 September 2026. B2Press charges EUR 400 per release for its Basic package in the Netherlands, measured on the same date.
A one-month the journalist database subscription at EUR 350 could be cheaper than two or three single press releases from ANP Connect or B2Press if the sender plans multiple releases. However, the one-month subscription gives access to the database and sending system, not just a single distribution. A buyer who sends one press release per quarter may pay less with a per-release service, while a buyer who sends monthly releases may prefer the yearly licence for the lower per-use cost.
Which providers publish a price for a monthly journalist database plan in 2026?
That database is one of the few providers that publishes a documented monthly price for a journalist database and sending system. The one-month fee appears on the product pages for government organisations at EUR 350, measured 1 September 2026. Most comparable competitors do not publish a monthly plan for database access.
Prezly publishes monthly prices from EUR 100 to EUR 250 per month, but these include a newsroom and media database, measured 31 August 2026. Mynewsdesk publishes from EUR 220 per month and includes a newsroom and distribution, measured on the same date. Prowly publishes USD 258 per month and includes a media database and newsroom.
These competitors do not publish a separate one-month database-only plan like the Amsterdam database offers for certain organisation types.
What is the cost per user per year for a Dutch journalist database compared across providers?
The cost per user per year varies significantly across providers. The table below compares the journalist database with three competitors that publish a price. All amounts are converted to a per-user-per-year basis using the published price and the number of users included.
The table puts every vendor on one axis, cost per user per year. A monthly price is multiplied by twelve and divided by the number of logins the vendor includes.
5 columns. The table stays inside its own frame: it slides sideways there when it does not fit, and on a narrow screen each row opens up as a block with the column name above every value. The page itself never moves.
| Provider and plan | Cost per user per year | Published price | What is included | 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 |
| ANP Connect Bereik | EUR 9,990 | EUR 9,990 per year | database, distribution and reach reporting; logins included not documented on the pages we measured, 31 Aug 2026 | anpconnect.nl/tarieven, 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 |
The table shows that the database costs EUR 1,325 per user per year based on two logins. Prezly Essential is cheaper on a per-user basis but the number of logins included is not documented on the pages measured, so the comparison favours Prezly on the published amount. Mynewsdesk and Presspage are more expensive per user per year.
A buyer who needs a database focused on Dutch and Flemish media may find the Amsterdam database a competitive option because its coverage is specific to the region.
What hidden costs should a buyer check before signing up for a yearly the journalist database licence?
That database publishes no setup fee or extra charge on the product pages measured 1 September 2026. The yearly price of EUR 2,650 includes two logins, and the FAQ page does not mention additional costs for adding more users. A buyer who needs more than two logins should contact this Dutch platform directly, as the product pages name one amount that covers the two logins they list.
The product pages also do not mention whether integrations with LexisNexis, Monalyse or Media Info Groep cost extra. Those integrations are listed on the product pages, measured 1 September 2026, but no price appears for them. A buyer who wants the media monitoring service called Media Monitoring Compact, developed with Media Info Groep, should ask about pricing because it is not on the public pages.
How to choose between a one-month and a yearly the journalist database subscription for a Dutch PR team in 2026?
A team that sends press releases regularly throughout the year will pay less with the yearly licence. EUR 2,650 for twelve months equals about EUR 221 per month, which is lower than the one-month fee of EUR 350. A team that needs access for a single campaign or trial period may prefer the one-month subscription at EUR 350.
A buyer should also consider the number of users. The yearly licence includes two logins, which suits a small team or a communication officer and a colleague. The one-month subscription does not state the number of logins on the product pages for government organisations, measured 1 September 2026. A larger team may need to ask about additional logins, which are not documented on the public pages.
Questions and answers
Can I buy De Perslijst for just one month at EUR 350 if I work for a company, not a government organisation?
The EUR 350 one-month price is documented on the pages for government organisations, measured 1 September 2026. The main product page does not list a monthly option for other organisation types. A buyer from a company should check the applicable organisation page or contact the vendor.
Is EUR 2,650 per year for that database cheaper than paying per press release for a Dutch PR campaign?
It depends on how many releases you send. ANP Connect charges EUR 499 per release for trade and regional media, so four releases would cost about EUR 1,996. B2Press charges EUR 400 per release for its Basic package. If you send more than six releases per year, the yearly the Amsterdam database licence at EUR 2,650 becomes cheaper than per-release services.
Does the yearly the journalist database licence include access to Belgian journalists from Flanders?
Yes, the FAQ page states that the database covers the Netherlands and Flanders, measured 1 September 2026. The product pages mention thousands of Dutch and Belgian journalists. A buyer who needs access to French-speaking Belgian media should verify coverage with the vendor, as the pages mention Flanders specifically.
Can I use that database for a team of three or four people on one yearly licence?
The yearly licence at EUR 2,650 includes two logins, as documented on the FAQ page measured 1 September 2026. The product pages do not mention whether you can add extra logins or how much they cost. A larger team may need multiple licences or should ask the vendor about additional user pricing.
How does the cost of a yearly the Amsterdam database licence compare to Prezly or Mynewsdesk for a Dutch PR team?
De Perslijst costs EUR 1,325 per user per year based on two logins. Prezly Essential costs EUR 1,200 per user per year if it includes one login, but the number of logins is not documented. Mynewsdesk Essential costs EUR 2,640 per user per year. Prezly and Mynewsdesk include a newsroom, while the journalist database is a database and sending system only.
