Upgrading a VPS to a higher tier

7min

What is a VPS Upgrade?

A VPS Upgrade allows you to add additional resources to your VPS without the need of purchasing a fresh product.

  • add more RAM
  • add additional vCPU cores
  • increase the monthly traffic commitment
  • add more disk space

Adding RAM and vCPU cores require a cold-boot. Traffic becomes available immediately, no actions required. More info on Upgrades and Disks.

How much is an upgrade?

Example: You upgrade from a EUR 4.99 SMART plan to the EUR 7.49 plan Let's assume you want to upgrade after using the product for 1 week already. In this example, you only pay EUR 1.92 extra. We only charge you the difference for the time left in the month, and we count in the full EUR 4.99 you already paid. So, it's even cheaper than paying the full EUR 2.50 difference, and we definitely don't ask you to pay the full monthly price of the larger plan.
