Ubuntu VPS Hosting in Kenya, Tanzania and Nigeria

Yes. All Linux images, Ubuntu included, are free on every plan — the plan price is the full price of the server.

Yes. Every Ubuntu VPS gives you complete root access and SSH key authentication from the moment it boots. It's your server to configure however you like.

Yes. Provide cloud-init user data at deploy and your server bootstraps itself on first boot — packages installed, users created, keys in place before you ever log in.

Yes. Run Ubuntu's standard do-release-upgrade in place, or deploy a fresh 24.04 server and migrate. Either way, snapshot first so you can roll back in a click.

Yes. Resize to a larger plan as your workload grows, with minimal downtime. Compute and storage scale together across the tiers.

Every plan supports on-demand snapshots and scheduled automated backups. Snapshot storage is billed per GB beyond your included allowance.

The one your users are in — Kenyan traffic in ke-1a, Tanzanian in tz-1a, Nigerian in ng-1a. Per-unit prices are identical in all three, so nothing about the decision is commercial. If you serve two of the three, run two instances; there is no useful midpoint between the cities.

Yes. Package pulls leave the region over the same internet as everyone else's, and they are a build-time cost measured in minutes per month rather than something a user waits on. If your pipeline bakes images, that cost lands on your builders and never on the server at all.

24.04 LTS, unless a dependency pins you to 22.04. It carries security updates to 2029, which is longer than most teams keep an instance, and it means the machine you deploy into Lagos this quarter does not need re-platforming while the market you deployed it for is still growing.

Yes, on one console, one API and one invoice. Where personal data is copied between regions, treat it as a cross-border transfer under the origin country's law — Tanzania in particular requires a permit from its Commission before personal data leaves — and settle that before you schedule the replication.

Yes, and you usually should if part of your audience is elsewhere. The cache serves what has already been computed; the Ubuntu box computes the rest. Moving the origin into the country is the part no cache configuration does for you.

In US dollars by card or bank transfer, from a dollar price list rather than a conversion applied at checkout. If the cost belongs to a local subsidiary instead, switch to that market and it settles in KES, TZS or NGN. Prices exclude VAT, which is calculated and shown separately where it applies.

Yes. The instance, its volume and everything on it are created in that region's city and are not moved out of the country without your instruction — data residency for Kenya's Data Protection Act, Tanzania's Personal Data Protection Act or Nigeria's Data Protection Act, depending on where you deployed.

Your data stays in the region you deploy to. Across our data centres in Nairobi (Kenya), Dar es Salaam (Tanzania), and Lagos (Nigeria) it never has to leave the continent — deploy in the country closest to your users and your data is held there.

In whichever of our three regions you choose — Nairobi (ke-1a), Dar es Salaam (tz-1a), or Lagos (ng-1a). Your content is stored and served from that in-country facility.

Pay in USD by card or bank transfer — or switch to our Kenya, Tanzania, Nigeria or Uganda market to pay locally in KES, TZS, NGN or UGX with methods like M-Pesa and MTN Mobile Money.

You can view and pay in USD, or switch to a local market to pay in KES (Kenya), TZS (Tanzania), or NGN (Nigeria). You're settled in the currency you choose at checkout.
