Access your
Select "Manage" from Your Active Products/Services.
Choose "Upgrade/Downgrade" on the right-hand side and select your desired package.
Keep in mind that VPS upgrades must be done per package and cannot be done for individual components like RAM, storage, or CPU. The cost of your upgrade is based on a credit for the unused portion of your current plan and billing for the new plan for the same period. If you choose a longer billing period, you will receive a discount. If you have any outstanding invoices, they need to be paid first. There are no additional fees for upgrades.
If you have a Budget VPS plan and want to upgrade, the usual steps above won’t work. You’ll need to open a support ticket because Budget VPS plans have different disk sizes. If you want to move from a Budget VPS to a Premium DDR4 or DDR5 VPS plan, check that the new Premium VPS offers more storage than your current Budget VPS. If it doesn't have more storage, we can't upgrade it for you automatic and you'd have to buy the new VPS and move your files over yourself.
Once you submit your payment, there is no need to take any further action. Your data will not be lost and you will not need to create a backup. Visit your VPS dashboard (link below) and manage your VPS. Look for a message that says "Pending Changes" as below. Your VPS will need a simple restart to apply the upgrades.
Be advised that if you do not see the message above your upgrade will require to be manually handled. We complete upgrades as quickly as possible, often within just a few hours. If we are unable to upgrade your VPS, you will be notified and refunded.
Unfortunately, we cannot easily downgrade your VPS servers due to Windows' inability to shrink disk sizes correctly. As a result, downgrades are only possible if your current VPS plan has the same disk size as the plan you wish to downgrade to.
If you'd like to proceed with a downgrade, you'll need to purchase the new desired VPS plan, transfer your files to the new VPS, and then submit a cancellation request for your current VPS.
