Buy the capacity. The servers are free.
A capacity pool is one block of vCPU, memory, storage and IPv4, paid for once a month. Inside it you build as many servers as the quota allows — and not one of them carries a price, a renewal or a bill.
One bill, however many machines
An ordinary VPS is priced per machine, so ten small servers cost ten times one. A pool inverts that: you pay for the total capacity, then carve it into whatever shape your build needs — ten small machines today, three larger ones tomorrow. Rebuilding costs nothing, because there is nothing to re-buy.
Size a pool- Every server inside the pool is free — no monthly price, no renewal date, never on an invoice
- Its own private network, so your machines reach each other without a public port
- A block of IPv4 addresses that is yours to move between your servers at any time
- Resize whenever you like — growing is charged pro rata, shrinking applies next month
- Guaranteed capacity: the quota is reserved for you, not shared out when it gets busy
- Full root access, KVM virtualisation and NVMe storage, exactly as on our VPS plans
How it works
Choose the total vCPU, memory, storage and addresses you want to hold. This is the only thing you pay for.
Deploy machines from the client area in any shape that fits the quota. Each one is free and appears on no bill.
Grow the pool when you need more headroom, shrink it when you don't. Servers can be rebuilt or replaced at no cost.

A private network of your own
Every pool gets its own private segment, and every server built inside it gets a second interface on that network. Your machines talk to each other over it — a database, a cache, a cluster's internal traffic — without any of it crossing a public interface or needing a port open to the world. Traffic between your own machines on that segment is unmetered and never leaves the cluster.
When a pool is the right shape
Kubernetes nodes, database replicas, CI runners — anything where the machine count changes and each one is small.
Staging that gets torn down nightly costs nothing extra, because rebuilding a server inside a pool is free.
When it is cheaper to run six small servers than one large one, a pool lets you choose the split without changing what you pay.
One line on the invoice that does not move as you add and remove machines through the month.
If you need one or two servers and expect to leave them running, a normal VPS plan is simpler and cheaper — see the VPS plans
Questions
Yes. A server built inside a pool has no monthly price, no renewal date and never appears on an invoice. The pool is the thing you pay for, and it is the only thing you pay for.
As many as the quota holds. Each server takes vCPU, memory, storage and one address from the pool; when the quota is full you either resize the pool or free capacity by removing a machine.
Growing is charged immediately, prorated for the days left in the month, at the unit rates the pool was originally sold at. Shrinking is not refunded — the lower price applies from your next renewal.
Yes, at any time and at no cost — the block came with the pool. You do have to configure a newly assigned address inside the machine yourself.
The pool is suspended as one unit and its servers are powered off, but nothing is deleted: your disks, addresses and private network are kept. Topping up your balance brings everything back, with each machine returned to the state it was in.
The servers inside are powered off and preserved rather than destroyed, the addresses go back and billing stops. There is no refund for the remainder of the month, so cancel at the end of a cycle if you can.
