How to pay for a VPS with Monero (XMR)

Configure the server, set a password, send one XMR transfer at the live rate, wait one confirmation, get SSH.

Steps

Open deploy. Choose a VPS plan (Starter at $8.50/mo is enough for a light site or a pruned node), a term, Iceland/Netherlands/Romania/Switzerland, and an OS. Enter email. Create a password (or sign in). On the payment page pick XMR. Copy the amount and address. Send from a wallet you control (Feather, official GUI, Cake). Use a fee that confirms in the next block if you are in a hurry. When we see the confirmation, the orchestrator images the VM. SSH lands in the email.

Dedicated servers too

The same Monero invoice path pays Dedicated through Dual. Provision is 2-4 hours after the invoice clears, not 60 seconds. IPMI is VPN-gated. Paying a dedicated server with XMR does not add KYC later.

Common mistakes

Wrong amount, wrong network (there is no XMR-on-ERC-20), and paying a previous invoice address. Always use the address on the current invoice screen. Do not send a token on Ethereum or BSC labelled 'Monero'. Integrated addresses only, as printed.

Exchanges

If your exchange supports XMR withdrawal, it works. The exchange may have KYC; we do not. Withdraw to a wallet you control first if you do not want the exchange to see our deposit address. That extra hop is your choice, not a requirement of checkout.
