VPS Hosting in Nigeria

Pick Linux for web servers, containers, databases, and anything built on open-source tooling — images are free and you get full root with SSH. Pick Windows for .NET applications, RDP desktops, SQL Server, and trading platforms — every Windows plan includes a licensed, activated Windows Server.

Yes. Windows plans include a fully licensed, activated Windows Server 2022 Standard, provided under a Services Provider License Agreement. There's nothing to bring or key in — the price you see is the full price.

Yes. Linux plans give you full root access with SSH key authentication; Windows plans give you full administrator rights over RDP. It's your server to configure however you like.

They're the same platform. VPS plans are ready-sized bundles at a fixed monthly price; the Cloud Server page lets you build a custom machine priced per vCPU, GB, and SSD. Pick whichever entry point suits you.

Yes. Resize to a larger plan as your workload grows, with minimal downtime — and you can move up the range from the smallest plan to 32 vCPUs and 64 GB of RAM without migrating providers.

Under 60 seconds for both operating systems. Linux servers run any cloud-init user data you provide; Windows servers come activated and ready for RDP.

In ng-1a, our Lagos region. The instance and its storage are created there and stay there unless you move them yourself.

Linux plans run from NGN 21,950 a month (1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, 40 GB SSD) through NGN 42,400, NGN 83,300, NGN 165,100 and NGN 328,700 to NGN 655,900 for 32 vCPU and 64 GB. Windows plans run from NGN 31,950 to NGN 735,900 with the Windows Server 2022 Standard licence included. Prices exclude VAT, and annual billing is ten months for twelve.

NGN. Prices can be viewed in USD, KES, TZS or NGN, but as a Nigerian customer you are quoted, invoiced and settled in Naira, against a Nigerian price list rather than a converted dollar figure.

By bank transfer or card, in Naira. Transfer is the route most Nigerian businesses use for anything sizeable; a card suits a single instance or a monthly renewal.

No. The charge is a Naira charge that settles in Nigeria, whether you pay by card or by transfer, so it sits outside the international cap your bank applies to a Naira card. A dollar subscription to a host abroad sits inside it, every month it renews.

Most Nigerian banks did, between 2022 and 2023, and most reopened during 2025 with caps that vary by bank and are reviewed regularly. It changes the shape of the decision rather than the price: an overseas host has to be paid out of that allowance, or out of a domiciliary account somebody keeps funded in Naira. A Lineserve invoice is settled in Naira on domestic rails, like any other Nigerian supplier.

No. Displayed prices exclude VAT. Nigerian VAT on cloud and hosting services is 7.5%, administered by the Nigeria Revenue Service, and it is calculated and shown separately at checkout.

Send [email protected] your TIN, your registered name as the Revenue Service holds it, your billing address and any purchase-order reference before you order, and the account is set up from the first billing run. A Nigerian buyer claiming input VAT wants both parties' identifiers, an invoice number and date, the service described, and the Naira amount with VAT on its own line.

Both, at the same click. Linux gives you root and SSH from first boot on current Ubuntu, Debian, Rocky, AlmaLinux, CentOS Stream and Fedora images, cloud-init ready, and the images cost nothing. Windows gives you full administrator rights over RDP on a licensed, activated Windows Server 2022 Standard, sized for SQL Server and .NET. Both provision in under 60 seconds.

NVMe storage, a 1 Gbps port with unlimited local traffic, one dedicated public IPv4 and a free /64 IPv6, always-on DDoS mitigation, on-demand snapshots and scheduled backups, private networking between your instances, a browser console, and a full API and CLI. There are no feature tiers — you choose the operating system and the size, and nothing else is gated.

Yes. vCPU, RAM and storage each resize independently up to 32 vCPU and 64 GB of RAM, with minimal downtime and no change of provider. Size for the traffic you have and grow the same machine into the traffic you get.

Faster than the same site in Europe, for the reason that decides most of it: the request has a Nigerian origin and a Nigerian destination, with no ocean in between. All three networks are inside Nigeria and so is ng-1a.

A satellite link carries its own floor before any terrestrial hop, so a Lagos origin improves the ground portion of that path and leaves the space portion alone. It is still an improvement over a European origin, and it is an honest one rather than a transformation.

If your users are in Nigeria and your server is in Lagos, their traffic did not need the cable. That is what the March 2024 outage demonstrated for applications hosted in Europe: thirteen countries disrupted, and Nigerian services unreachable for their own users. Hosting in-country keeps the subsea path out of the critical route for domestic traffic.

Yes. Data in ng-1a is held in Lagos and is not moved out of the country without your instruction, which gives you data residency for Nigeria's Data Protection Act.

For the data that stays in Nigeria, section 41 of the NDPA does not come into play — it governs transfers out of the country. Your own obligations as a controller, including registration where it applies, are unchanged.

Hosting in ng-1a puts the data in Nigeria, which is the part infrastructure supplies. Whether your architecture as a whole satisfies circular PSS/DIR/PUB/CIR/001/004 before 1 January 2027 is your own assessment, made with your advisers and your regulator.

Yes, on the same account and API — ke-1a in Nairobi and tz-1a in Dar es Salaam. Treat personal data carefully when you do: a copy outside Nigeria is a transfer under section 41. Backups of non-personal data, machine images and static assets raise no such question.

It runs fine on an activated Windows Server 2022 with full RDP rights. Be clear about what you are buying, though: retail broker matching engines sit in London and New York, so a Lagos instance is not an execution-venue play. What it gives a Nigerian trader is a machine that keeps running when the flat has no power and no internet, and a Naira bill instead of a monthly foreign subscription.

[email protected], or the ticket system once you have an account. Nigeria is on West Africa Time, UTC+1, with no daylight saving, so a change window agreed in WAT means the same thing all year.
