General Compute plans run Intel Xeon Skylake-SP or better. vCPU resources are allocated with conservative oversubscription so bursty workloads stay responsive; we do not sell denser than our production capacity planning allows. Need a tailored build? Ask for a custom quote.
How billing works
Credit first, then metered by the hour.
If you have not bought from a credit-based host before, it is worth thirty seconds. It is the reason you can stop paying for a server the hour you stop using it.
1. Add credit
Pay by card and the amount lands on your account as credit. A plan you order afterwards is paid from that credit whenever it covers the price, or you can pay for the plan outright in one step.
2. Deploy
Pick a plan and an image and the server is built for you. Full root access, a browser console when you need it, and start, stop and rebuild from the client area.
3. Draw down
Each running hour is metered against your credit at the rate for the plan and term you chose. Yearly buys a year at the yearly rate. Delete the server and the metering stops.
Included on every plan
No unbundling.
The offer plans use the same platform as everything else we sell. Transfer is 2 TB included per account, plus each server's plan transfer allowance per UTC calendar month, prorated by time provisioned. The 2.5 Gbps port is the same as the public catalog.
Always-on L3/L4 DDoS mitigation
Filtering is on by default at no extra cost. Nothing to enable, no scrubbing surcharge.
Enterprise NVMe SSD
Enterprise drives on Skylake-SP or better hosts. Conservative vCPU oversubscription.
Root and console
Full root on KVM, plus a browser VNC console for when SSH is the thing that broke.
Dedicated IPv4 included
One dedicated IPv4 address per server. Extra IPv4 addresses are available as an add-on, billed by the hour while reserved.
Backups
Buy backup storage from Backups and ISOs for snapshots and backups. Still copy anything you cannot replace off the box.
Check before you buy
Run a ping, traceroute or MTR from our network with the looking glass, and see current platform state on the status page.
Questions
The things worth asking.
Will this price go up on me later?
No. This offer is its own set of plans, and a server keeps the price of the plan it was bought on. When we change or end the offer, we do it by publishing new plans, not by editing the ones people are already running.
What happens when my yearly credit runs out?
If you have a card saved, we top the balance up automatically. If you do not, we email you as the balance gets low so you can add credit before anything stops. Nothing is deleted without warning.
Is the monthly option a contract?
No. Monthly is our hourly billing at the offer rate, so you pay for the hours the server actually runs rather than committing to a term. Stop or delete it whenever you like and the metering stops with it, and unused credit stays on your account. The monthly figure on the card is a 730 hour month, so a 31 day month bills a few hours more.
Can I order more than one?
Yes. Deploy as many of the offer plans as your credit covers.
What can I run on it?
It is a KVM VPS with full root, so anything legal that fits in the plan. No cryptomining, no attack traffic, and no spam. If you are unsure whether a workload fits, ask us before you order rather than after.
How do I reach support?
Tickets from the client area, and we answer them ourselves. There is a contact form if you want to ask something before you have an account.
