Most VPS servers are deployed automatically within 5-15 minutes after payment confirmation. You'll receive an email with your server details including IP address, login credentials, and getting started guide.

For custom configurations or enterprise plans, setup may take up to 24 hours.

Q What is the difference between VPS and shared hosting?

A VPS (Virtual Private Server) provides dedicated resources isolated from other users, giving you:

  • Guaranteed CPU, RAM, and storage allocations
  • Full root access and complete control
  • Better performance and reliability
  • Enhanced security through isolation
  • Ability to install custom software

Shared hosting means multiple users share the same server resources, which can lead to performance issues and limited customization options.

You can also upload custom ISO images for other operating systems.

Q Can I upgrade my VPS plan later?

  • Instant CPU and RAM upgrades
  • Storage expansion without data loss
  • Bandwidth increases

Downgrades are also available but may require a support ticket.

Q Do you provide backups?

Yes, we offer multiple backup options:

We strongly recommend maintaining your own off-site backups as an additional safety measure.

Please note that this guarantee applies to hosting services only. Domain registrations and setup fees are non-refundable.

Q When will I be billed?

Billing cycles are based on your chosen plan:

  • Monthly: Billed on the same date each month
  • Annually: Billed once per year (save up to 20%)

You'll receive an invoice email 7 days before your renewal date. Auto-renewal can be disabled in your account settings.

Q Can I cancel my service anytime?

Yes, you can cancel your service at any time through your account dashboard. There are no cancellation fees or long-term contracts. Your service will remain active until the end of your current billing period.

Please make sure to backup your data before cancellation, as servers are deleted after the service ends.

Q How do I access my VPS?
