Run Unlimited Radio Stations on an AzuraCast Dedicated Server.
A whole server with AzuraCast installed for you, and full root access. Create unlimited stations and users with their own permissions, and brand the panel with your logo, icons and domain. AzuraCast is open source, so there is no panel licence on your invoice.

What AzuraCast Is and Why It Deserves
a Server of Its Own.
AzuraCast is a free, open-source radio platform: media library, AutoDJ, live shows, listener reports and podcasts in one dashboard, on Icecast or SHOUTcast. Shared hosting gives you one station on a shared server. Your own server runs as many stations, users and listeners as the hardware carries, under your own brand.

Everything AzuraCast Gives Every Station.
A complete broadcasting platform on your own server: you control the stations, playlists and streams, and nobody else's traffic shares it.
- Multi Station Management
- Media Manager With Bulk Upload
- Song Requests
- Role Based User Accounts
- SHOUTcast and Icecast Support
- Remote Relays
AutoDJ and Playlist Scheduler
Upload your library and build playlists that run to a schedule: general rotation, programmes at fixed times, jingles and station identification at set intervals, and smooth crossfades between tracks. The station stays on air around the clock whether or not anyone is at the desk.
Live Broadcasting, Two Ways
Presenters can connect with the broadcast software they already use, because the stream is standard SHOUTcast or Icecast underneath. AzuraCast also includes a browser based studio, so a presenter can go live from a laptop with nothing installed. The automation steps aside when they connect and resumes when they finish.
Listener Statistics and Reporting
Live listener counts, historical trends, session lengths and which tracks held an audience or lost it. Useful for programming decisions and genuinely useful when you are talking to a potential sponsor.
Podcasts and Multiple Streams
Publish podcasts from the same platform that runs your live station, and give each station several streams at different bitrates and formats so listeners on slow connections still get something that plays.
Sized by Stations, Listeners and Library.
With no licence cost, you pay for hardware, bandwidth and any management you add. Tell us how many stations you run, your combined peak listeners and your library size, and we will suggest the smallest plan that fits.

Why Choose an AzuraCast Dedicated Server.
Four things change when the whole machine is yours and the panel carries no licence.
No Licence Cost, However Many Stations
Commercial panels are licensed by station capacity, so growing your network raises your bill before it raises your revenue. AzuraCast does not work that way. Adding a station costs only the bandwidth and storage it uses.
The Whole Machine Is Yours
No other customer competes for the processor, the memory or the network card. Peak evening hours behave the same as quiet afternoons, which a shared platform cannot promise.
Root Access and Full Control
Change the configuration, add mount points, adjust bitrates, install supporting software or run a station website alongside the streams. Adding management does not lock you out.
Nothing Locks You In
The software is open source and your media is yours. The whole installation can move to another server or another provider whenever you choose.
Support and
Management Options.
AzuraCast is installed free, and Free Basic Managed Support covers quick tasks. To have our engineers run the server, add 24x7 server management for $35 a month or proactive 24x7 management for $65 a month when you order. You keep root access either way.

- 24x7 Management, $35/mo
- Proactive 24x7, $65/mo

& Support
Built for Professional Broadcasting.
AzuraCast dedicated servers suit a diverse range of audio streaming networks.
Station Networks Cutting Licence Costs
Several stations where per panel licensing has become a real monthly line. One machine, one bill, no licence, and adding the next station costs almost nothing.
Community and Nonprofit Stations
Budget is the binding constraint and every bit of budget not spent on licensing goes into the station instead. Role based accounts also suit a rota of volunteer presenters.
Stations Publishing Podcasts
Live output and podcast publishing handled by one platform rather than paying separately for each, with recordings of live shows available afterwards.
Broadcasters Who Outgrew a Small Server
You already run AzuraCast, it works, and the machine underneath has run out of memory, storage or bandwidth. This is the same platform on hardware that keeps up.
The Hardware Under Your Stations.
Ports from 500 Mbps to 1 Gbps with unmetered traffic, and SSD or NVMe storage on most plans.
Bare Metal Hardware
The CPU, memory and network port serve only your stations.
High Capacity Uplink
Unmetered traffic on 500 Mbps or 1 Gbps ports. Each listener uses your stream bitrate, so the port sets the listener ceiling.
Media Storage
From 2 x 256 GB SSD to 2 x 2 TB, for music libraries, recordings and podcasts.
DDoS Protection
DDoS protection on selected servers, mainly in the UK and Europe. Ask us to confirm for your plan.
Root Access
Full root and SSH access lets you configure containers, add custom tools, or inspect server settings.
99.9% Uptime SLA
Our service level agreement commits to 99.9 percent uptime each month, with credits if we miss it.
Engineers When You Need Them.
Quick tasks are covered by Free Basic Managed Support. For bigger jobs, book our engineers from $8 per 15 minutes or $28 per hour, choose a fixed-price AzuraCast job such as a station migration ($170), or add 24x7 management when you order.
Get in TouchFour Steps to Going Live.
We set up the hardware and install AzuraCast for you. Here is what happens after you order.
Tell Us Your Numbers
Stations, combined peak concurrent listeners, bitrates and library size. That is what sizes the machine.
We Build It
We install the operating system and AzuraCast before delivery, within 2 to 46 business hours.
Migrate or Start Fresh
Start fresh, or have our engineers move an existing AzuraCast station for a fixed $170 ($500 for large libraries).
Broadcast
Your stations go live. Add 24x7 management if you want us to look after the server from then on.
Add Stations
as You Grow.
Adding a station costs nothing in licensing, so growth is limited only by bandwidth and storage. When the machine is full, we plan a move to a larger server. Because AzuraCast is open source and the media is yours, you can also move it anywhere else.
Remote Relays
AzuraCast can feed remote relays, so other servers can carry part of your listener traffic.
Start With One Station, Grow Without Moving.
Four steps in one company, all in one account: when your station outgrows its plan, we move it up for you.
Shared radio hosting
One station with AutoDJ on Centova Cast, SonicPanel or AzuraCast. The lowest cost way to go on air.
Radio reseller hosting
Sell stations to your own clients from a Centova Cast or SonicPanel reseller panel, under your brand.
AzuraCast VPS
Your own server with AzuraCast installed: as many stations as the server can carry, with full root access.
Radio dedicated server
A whole machine for Centova Cast, SonicPanel, AzuraCast or SHOUTcast, for large audiences and many stations.
What Every Station Asks First.
The questions broadcasters ask most, answered plainly before you pick a plan.
How much bandwidth do I need?
Bitrate times listeners. 100 listeners at 128 kbps need 12.8 Mbps, and each listener uses about 57.6 MB an hour. At 128 kbps, 1 GB of AutoDJ space holds about 260 four-minute songs.
Does my stream need HTTPS?
Yes, if your website uses HTTPS. Browsers block a plain http stream on a secure page, so the player stays silent. Our radio panels serve streams over HTTPS.
How do I go live?
Connect free tools such as BUTT or Mixxx with the details in your panel. AutoDJ steps aside while you are live and takes over again when you leave.
Do I need a music licence?
Hosting gives you the server; music licences are the broadcaster's responsibility, for example PPL and PRS in the UK, SoundExchange in the US, or PPL India and IPRS in India. This is general information, not legal advice.
Is the panel kept up to date?
Yes. Our panels run their latest releases: every server is checked for updates daily and audited monthly, and Icecast and the other streaming parts update with the panel.
Can you move my station from another panel?
Yes, as paid Hire an Expert work, for example from Centova Cast to AzuraCast with your music, playlists and settings. It is not part of free managed support, so ask us for a quote first.
Run stations for clients under your own brand.
On your own server you decide the brand, the stations and the prices. Ucartz stays invisible.
No Ucartz branding
Our name appears nowhere your customers can see: not in the panel, the player or the stream.
Unlimited stations and users
Create as many stations and users as you need, each user with only the permissions you give them.
Your logo, icons and domain
Brand the panel and public pages with your own logo, icons and colours, on your own hostname.
Resell it freely
Sell the stations under your own name and bill clients your way. AzuraCast has no reseller panel, so you add each station yourself.
Every Ucartz service is 100% white label. Hosting, radio and video streaming run on white-label hostnames, and anything you buy from us, Hire an Expert work included, can be resold or outsourced under your own name.
