hosting - i am having trouble finding a way to host my rails app

Back in December i started writing my very first Rails app. It's a non profit app for managing sports clubs. Now, after two months of struggle, version 0.5 is ready for deployment, there is still a lot of room for improvements and enhancements, but it has reached a level where input from peer review and user testing is required. I am very impressed as to how far i have come in such short time. (I'm a seasoned developer, but i am new to everything in the rails universe). To facilitate the review and test i wanted to "publish" it, only to discover that this is not very easy. I have been unable to find any hosting for my app that is not very costly (compared to PHP or, to an extent, .NET). I Fund one provider, but after finally getting in touch with them they told me that they could do it "in theory", but their ruby version was probably "way too old". I'm located in Denmark, so hosting in the US is not an option (the app will have member info and i have been led to believe that hosting personal info outside the scope of European GDPR is illegal. This might and might not be true, but i won't go there). PHP hosting in Denmark (shared) costs around 4 euros a month, but the only thing i have been able to find for Rails is VPS at around 27 euros a month. I need some suggestions around ways to host my app without paying a fortune.

p.s. I have found several questions like this, but all of them are very old (5+ years).

Depending on your app, it might be free. Might not be. I've used it to host my hobby-projects.

Another option is to get a generic linux machine and install ruby and everything else you need yourself.
