How it works

From order to a Linux server you control.

  1. 1

    Choose a plan

    Order the KVM VPS package that fits your project and pay at checkout.

  2. 2

    Automatic deployment

    Our control panel creates the VPS in about a minute once the order is approved. Your login details arrive by email.

  3. 3

    Pick your distribution

    Keep the installed system or reinstall with another distribution from the Virtualizor panel in your client area.

  4. 4

    Build, or ask us

    Work as root over SSH, or open a Technical Support ticket and our engineers set up a LAMP or LEMP stack for you, free.

What the free LAMP or LEMP setup covers

A standard web stack on the distribution you choose. Anything beyond it is optional and billed only for the time used.

Included free

  • LAMP (Apache, MariaDB, PHP) or LEMP (Nginx, MariaDB, PHP)
  • Your first site folder, with HTTPS on your domain
  • Distribution updates applied before handover
  • Advice on which of our Linux distributions suits your project

Custom work, billed by time

From $8 per 15 minutes or $28 per hour, only for the time used. No contract.

  • Server hardening, firewalls and SSH key-only access
  • Installing and configuring other software
  • Moving from another server or hosting provider
  • Monitoring, backups and ongoing Linux server management

Your Linux server, managed from the client area

Every plan is a KVM virtual machine with its own kernel, so you can run the software you need: web servers, databases, Docker, VPNs or your own services. You connect over SSH as root.

The Virtualizor panel in your client area looks after the machine itself: start, stop and reboot it, open the VNC console if SSH is unreachable, and reinstall the operating system in a few minutes.

Choose the distribution in the OS installer, for example Ubuntu, Debian or Rocky Linux, and change it later if a project needs something else. Reinstalling erases the disk, so back up first.

Frequently asked questions

Which Linux distributions can I use?

Choose from the distributions in the Virtualizor OS installer, for example Ubuntu, Debian and Rocky Linux, and reinstall with a different one whenever you like. Reinstalling erases the disk.

Can I reinstall the operating system myself?

Yes. In the client area, open your VPS and use OS Re-Install in the Virtualizor panel; it takes a few minutes. Our guide shows each step.

What if I lock myself out of SSH?

Open the VNC console from the Virtualizor panel in your client area and log in directly, even when the network or firewall is misconfigured. See how to use the VNC console.

Is this different from your VPS hosting page?

It is the same KVM VPS range as our VPS hosting page. This page adds the free LAMP or LEMP stack setup for Linux users.

Is the LAMP or LEMP setup really free?

Yes. Once your VPS is active, open a Technical Support ticket from the client area and our engineers do a basic LAMP or LEMP setup with standard settings at no extra cost. Custom work, such as server hardening or installing other software, is billed from $8 per 15 minutes or $28 per hour.

How fast is the VPS ready?

Deployment is automated: our control panel creates the VPS in about a minute once the order is approved, and some new orders are checked by our team first. The login details arrive by email and the VPS appears in your client area.

Where are the servers?

These KVM VPS plans run in our USA data centre. Each VPS has one IPv4 address and unmetered bandwidth.

Is there a money-back guarantee?

Yes. A VPS is covered by our 30-day money-back guarantee on your first purchase of that service at Ucartz. The full conditions are in section 8 of our Terms and Conditions.

Do I get root access?

Yes. You get full root access over SSH, plus the Virtualizor panel in your client area for reboots, the VNC console and OS reinstalls.

Is support included with a self-managed Linux VPS?

Yes. Free Basic Managed Support is included with every Linux VPS: complimentary, best-effort help with quick tasks of about 5 minutes, such as access and console checks, OS reinstalls, DNS pointing and first-level troubleshooting.

What if I need help beyond basic support?

Hire an engineer on demand, from $8 per 15 minutes or $28 per hour, or choose a monthly plan. There is no contract, so you can switch the extra support off whenever you like.

Can you install n8n, Docker or an AI model on my Linux VPS?

Yes. We install and configure n8n, Docker, Portainer, private LLMs such as Ollama, and most open-source software, then hand the setup over to you.
