VPS hosting
VPS hosting that just works
A virtual private server gives you your own slice of a physical server: dedicated vCores, RAM and storage, your own IP addresses and full root access. You can install anything you want, run it 24/7 and never share a control panel with anyone.
TidalVPS servers run on KVM virtualization in enterprise data centers in Virginia and Oregon. Every plan includes unmetered traffic, IPv4 and IPv6, and always-on DDoS protection, with no setup fees and no long-term contracts.
Real resources
KVM virtualization means your vCores and RAM are yours, not oversold containers.
Unmetered traffic
No monthly bandwidth caps or surprise overage bills. Ports from 500 Mbps to 3 Gbps.
DDoS protection
Attacks are detected and filtered automatically, and we email you when one starts and ends.
Full root access
Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, Fedora or Docker-ready images, reinstallable anytime.

Frequently asked questions
What is a VPS?
A virtual private server is a virtual machine with its own dedicated CPU, memory, storage and IP address, running on a powerful physical server. It behaves like your own dedicated server at a fraction of the price.
How fast is setup?
Most servers are online within minutes of payment. First orders from new accounts may be verified manually, which can take up to 24 hours, but it is usually much faster.
Is there a contract?
No. Pay monthly, quarterly (5% off) or annually (10% off), and cancel anytime from your dashboard.
Do you offer Windows?
We currently offer Linux distributions only: Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux and Fedora.
