Loopia: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Loopia is a Swedish provider of domain names and web hosting. Its range covers hosting packages, VPS and reseller options, WordPress and WooCommerce, website builders, email on a custom domain and Microsoft 365. It is aimed at individuals, small businesses and resellers. The services are delivered as hosted services, including SSL, backups, a web application firewall and DDoS protection.

Loopia AB is based in Västerås, Sweden, and has been part of team.blue since 2024, a European digital group with Belgian roots. The parent company is therefore also in the EU. According to Loopia, web hosting, WordPress and WooCommerce, email and databases are stored in its own data centre in Västerås, Sweden. Some services run in partner data centres within the EU: Windows hosting and MS SQL databases in the Czech Republic, VPS in Slovakia and Loopia SEO in Germany. Loopia also operates DNS anycast nodes in several places around the world. The service is not open source and cannot be self-hosted. For a European organisation, this means hosting under Swedish and EU law, with no US parent company.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Loopia

Loopia is headquartered in SE and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data. The ultimate owner is based in BE, also within Europe.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so Loopia scores best on data residency.

Loopia is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs Loopia together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
