Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our VPS hosting services.

What is VPS Hosting?

Virtual Private Server hosting, or VPS for short, enables you to enjoy all the benefits of a dedicated server while reducing your monthly overheads. With a Virtual Private Server, you share the expense of acquiring the server hardware, software, and monthly running costs to eliminate the difficulty and cost of maintaining them.

What uptime can I expect with your VPS hosting?

We offer a 99.9% uptime guarantee for all VPS services. This ensures your website or application remains accessible, supported by redundant infrastructure and reliable network connections.

Can I upgrade my plan in the future?

Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade your VPS plan at any time. While storage upgrades are permanent, CPU and RAM adjustments are flexible to meet your growing needs.

Are there any discounts or promotions available?

Yes! We offer annual billing discounts and run occasional promotions. Follow our social channels for the latest deals on VPS hosting and related services.

Is my VPS hosted on Enterprise Hardware?

Our servers use the best enterprise-grade hardware with the latest top tier storage NVMe. This ensures fast performance and reliability in premium data centres with redundant systems.

How can you guarantee performance for my server?

We take great care to not oversubscribe our servers and claim we have great performance compared to other hosts, and indeed we do. We have always aimed at providing some - if not the highest performance VPS in South Africa for the cost.

Do you support SMTP on the VPS?

For your convenience we do allow SMTP Port25 on all VPS. Please ensure that you comply with our AUP in terms of bulk email.

Can I use your VPS if I'm not familiar with Linux?

Our Linux VPS is best suited for users with at least basic Linux server management experience. If you're new to Linux, we recommend our cPanel hosting plans for a user-friendly experience.

Can I configure reverse DNS (rDNS) for my VPS?

Yes, you can set reverse DNS (rDNS) records through our control panel. Proper rDNS setup improves email deliverability and helps with server reputation and identification.

What security features are included with your VPS?

Security is essential for any server. We provide an integrated firewall, SSH key support, and recommend OS-level security practices to protect your VPS from unauthorised access.

What help can I expect with unmanaged VPS hosting?

Our VPS plans are unmanaged, giving you full control and root access. We provide infrastructure support but recommend technical knowledge or a sysadmin for VPS OS support.

What payment methods do you support?

We support PayPal, Visa, Mastercard, Snapscan, EFT, Apple Pay, and Samsung Pay. Whether you're local or international, we offer flexible and secure payment options.

Which Linux distributions are supported on your VPS?

We support popular Linux distributions including Ubuntu, CentOS, Debian, and AlmaLinux. If you need a custom OS, contact us and we'll assist where possible.

Where are your VPS servers and data centres located?

Your VPS and backups are hosted in secure South African data centres. This ensures low latency, data sovereignty compliance, and improved performance for local users.

What software can I run on my VPS server?

You can install almost any Linux-compatible app on your VPS, from web servers to development tools or containers such as LXC or Docker. You're free to run software that suits your specific hosting needs.

Do you offer backups with your VPS hosting?

Each VPS includes a free weekly backup slot. You can add more during checkout. We do recommend keeping your own offsite backups for extra data protection and to adhere to best practice.

Do you offer additional IPv4 addresses?

We currently provide one dedicated IPv4 address per VPS. If you require additional IPs or subnets, Please open a ticket with us.

Do you offer cPanel or WHM licenses for VPS users?

Yes, you can add cPanel/WHM during checkout. It's a powerful control panel that simplifies website and email hosting with an intuitive interface and robust features.
