A newsroom feed for the ANP and other Dutch wire services in 2026: what a distribution service reads

Bottom line: For distributing a press release to the ANP and other Dutch wire services in 2026, a newsroom feed is often a separate service. The ANP Connect platform itself charges per release, from EUR 499 for regional media to EUR 1,395 for a combined Netherlands and Belgium send.
PR-Dashboard's hosted newsroom, priced at EUR 1,750 (no period stated on the source page, read 1 September 2026), houses your releases and archive but does not describe a wire service send on the pages we measured, 31 Aug 2026. Most Dutch newsrooms combine a subscription for the online archive with a separate per-release fee for wire distribution.

What does a newsroom feed for the ANP cost in 2026?
ANP Connect, the wire service's own distribution platform, publishes clear per-release prices. Sending a press release to trade and regional media costs EUR 499 per release, while sending it to national media via the ANP network costs EUR 795 per release. For a combined send to the Netherlands and Belgium, the price is EUR 1,395 per release, measured on the ANP Connect tariff page, read 31 August 2026.
These prices do not include an online newsroom or archive. PR-Dashboard's PR-Newsroom, a separate product, starts at EUR 1,750 (no period stated, read 1 September 2026) and provides a press archive on your own domain, but it does not describe a wire send on the pages we measured, 31 Aug 2026. The two services are complementary: one for the archive, one for the distribution.
Which newsroom software includes a Dutch wire service feed?
No newsroom platform on the market automatically includes a feed to the ANP or another Dutch wire service as part of its subscription. PR-Newsroom from this Dutch platform, Presspage, Prezly, Mynewsdesk, and Prowly all house press releases on the customer's own domain. None of them publish a price that includes a wire service send.
ANP Connect itself offers a separate product called Connect Complete for EUR 4,990 per year, which includes a database and distribution tools but not a branded newsroom on your own domain. For a newsroom that also sends to the wire, you need two subscriptions: one for the online archive and one for the distribution.
How much does a newsroom cost per year compared to a wire send?
The hosted newsroom from the supplier costs EUR 1,750, with no period stated on the product page, read 1 September 2026. Presspage publishes its Business essentials plan at EUR 20,000 per year and its Enterprise plan at EUR 35,000 per year, read 31 August 2026. Prezly publishes its Essential plan at EUR 100 per month, which is EUR 1,200 per year for one user, and its Standard plan at EUR 250 per month, or EUR 3,000 per year, read 31 August 2026.
Mynewsdesk publishes its Essential plan at EUR 220 per month, or EUR 2,640 per year, read 31 August 2026. A single ANP Connect wire send to national media costs EUR 795 per release. If you send ten releases a year, the wire distribution alone costs EUR 7,950, which is more than a newsroom subscription plus a few sends.
The cost axis is different: a newsroom is an annual subscription, while a wire send is a per-release fee.
Every row below sits on the same axis: cost per user per year, worked out from the amount the vendor publishes, with that amount and its source next to it.
