FAQ
Where do servers run?+
Hetzner Cloud in Nuremberg, Falkenstein, Helsinki, Ashburn, Hillsboro and Singapore. Standard DDoS protection is included at the network edge.
Why identity verification?+
Every account completes Stripe Identity (photo ID + selfie) before provisioning. We never store ID images — only the provider status and reference.
Can I resize later?+
Yes. Vertical resize via the portal or API. Disk upgrades are one-way; plan changes may require a brief power cycle.
Is there an API?+
Yes. Create personal API tokens in the portal to automate create, rebuild, firewall, snapshots and metrics.
What is the SLA?+
99.9% monthly network and power availability for Active servers. Credits apply per our SLA page. Scheduled maintenance is excluded.
Deploy in under a minute.
Verify identity once. Then every server is API-automatable.
