You do not need a VPS to put a website online. For a blog, a shop, a portfolio or a small business site, shared hosting with a control panel is cheaper and far less work. This guide covers web hosting with Monero: shared and WordPress hosting plans you can pay for in XMR, taken from Monerica's Shared & Cloud Hosting subcategory, with what each provider asks for at sign-up and how the payment works.
Quick Answer
- Email-only sign-up, crypto only: Mynymbox, shared hosting from 3.50 EUR a month with DirectAdmin.
- Lowest listed price: Servers Guru, web hosting from 2.99 EUR a month.
- Privacy-focused jurisdictions: FlokiNET in Iceland, Romania, Finland and the Netherlands.
- Conventional cPanel hosting in North America: HosterBox (Canada) and Rad Web Hosting (USA).
Shared Hosting, WordPress Hosting or VPS?
- Shared hosting: your site lives on a server with many others. The host runs the web server, PHP, databases and email. You manage files and settings in cPanel, DirectAdmin or Plesk. It is the cheapest option and enough for most small sites.
- WordPress hosting: shared hosting tuned for WordPress, usually with a one-click installer, staging and update tools. On most hosts in this guide, WordPress installs in a few clicks on any shared plan.
- VPS: a virtual server with root access. You install and secure everything yourself. Choose it when you need custom software, not just a website. See how to pay for a VPS with Monero.
Why Pay for Web Hosting With Monero
- Your site is not tied to a card. A hosting account normally stores a name, an address and a payment method. Paying in XMR removes the payment trail from that record.
- Writers and publishers: people who run a personal blog, a community site or a newsletter under a pen name often do not want their home address in a billing database.
- No surprise renewals: crypto invoices are paid by hand, so a forgotten project does not keep charging you.
- It fits a Monero business: if your shop takes XMR, paying your hosting bill in XMR closes the loop. See accepting Monero with WordPress and WooCommerce.

Privacy-Focused Web Hosts
Mynymbox
Mynymbox sells shared hosting, VPS and domain registration with one requirement at sign-up: a working email address, which can be an alias. Shared hosting is 3.50 EUR a month in the Amsterdam region and includes DirectAdmin, a web app installer, unlimited domains and email accounts, and free Let's Encrypt certificates. Payment is crypto only. Bitcoin, Lightning, Monero, Litecoin, Zcash and Cashu are taken directly through a self-hosted gateway, and the site states that it does not accept cards, PayPal or wire transfers. The client area can be used over Tor or a VPN, and onion and I2P versions of the site are listed. Mynymbox can also register your domain with itself as the registrant of record, which keeps your details out of WHOIS.
Servers Guru
Servers Guru lists web hosting from 2.99 EUR a month, with a discount for a yearly order, one-click installs for WordPress and other apps, free SSL and DDoS protection. The site says only an email address is needed and no personal information. It accepts Monero, Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, USDT and others, as well as cards and PayPal. Monerica used Servers Guru hosting in its WordPress and WooCommerce walkthrough, so you can see the setup from start to finish there.
FlokiNET
FlokiNET is a privacy-focused host with active locations in Romania, Finland, the Netherlands and Iceland. Shared hosting starts at 3.50 EUR a month with unlimited domains and email accounts, and the site references cPanel with its WordPress toolkit. According to the site, any valid email address is enough to be a customer and services are prepaid. Monero is named among the payment options together with Bitcoin, Litecoin, bank transfer and even cash by post. FlokiNET publishes a clear acceptable-use policy that excludes spam, malware, phishing and illegal content.
AnonyMD
AnonyMD is a small shared host with all servers in Moldova. The Starter plan is 3 EUR a month for 3 GB of storage, one domain and one email account. The Professional plan is 6 EUR a month for 5 GB, five domains and ten email accounts. Ordering works differently from most hosts: the two standard plans can be ordered through XMRbazaar with automatic confirmation, or you can contact the provider by email or XMPP, with a stated response time of 12 to 48 hours. There is no account to register. The site states a no-refund policy, so start with one month.
HostCay
HostCay offers cPanel shared hosting on LiteSpeed and CloudLinux, with hardware in Frankfurt, Amsterdam and Vilnius. The site says its hosting works without requiring personal information and that services are activated on payment. It names Monero as a payment method for domain registration, and its Monerica listing notes Monero and Bitcoin acceptance. The site also makes clear that it does not offer bulletproof hosting and prohibits malicious activity.
Conventional Hosts That Take Monero
HosterBox
HosterBox is a Canadian web host with shared, WordPress, e-commerce and reseller plans, all with cPanel access and a 30-day money-back guarantee. It has a dedicated Monero hosting page that explains how the payment works: you choose Monero at checkout, an invoice is generated, and the payment is handled by BitPay or CoinPayments. In November 2026 that page also advertised a promo code for Monero orders.
Rad Web Hosting
Rad Web Hosting is based in Dallas, Texas. cPanel hosting starts at $9.99 a month on LiteSpeed servers with free SSL, a site builder, staging and free site migration, and WordPress hosting is sold as a separate product. The site lists more than 15 cryptocurrencies, with Monero named next to Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin, and advertises a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Noiz
Noiz is a South African host with servers at a facility in Gauteng. Shared plans start at R85 a month for one website and 20 GB of storage, use Plesk, and include one-click installers, free Let's Encrypt certificates and weekly backups. Higher plans add WP Toolkit for WordPress staging and updates. The site's FAQ lists Monero as an accepted payment method alongside card, instant EFT and bank transfer. It is a good fit if your visitors are in southern Africa.
These three are ordinary hosting companies that happen to take XMR. Expect a normal order form. Paying in Monero keeps your card out of it, but it does not make the account anonymous.
What to Check Before You Buy
- Monero at checkout: confirm XMR is selectable before you register a domain or migrate a site.
- What the order form asks for: some hosts need only an email, others ask for a full billing address.
- Control panel: cPanel, DirectAdmin and Plesk all work. Pick the one you know.
- Email: check whether mailboxes are included and whether outgoing mail is limited.
- Backups: ask how often they run and whether restores are free. Keep your own copy anyway.
- Location: host near your readers, and consider which country's law applies to the server.
- Acceptable-use policy: every host here publishes one. Read it before you pay.
- Refunds: crypto refunds are often given as credit, and some hosts give none.
How to Buy Web Hosting With Monero: Step by Step
- Pick a host from the Shared & Cloud Hosting page on Monerica and read its listing and reviews.
- Sort out the domain. Register it with the host or separately. See how to buy a domain with Monero.
- Create the account with an email address you control. An alias keeps your main inbox private.
- Choose Monero at checkout and copy the address and exact amount.
- Pay from your own wallet and wait for the confirmations the host requires.
- Install your site. Use the one-click installer for WordPress, turn on the free SSL certificate, and set a strong admin password.
- Note the renewal date. You will need to pay the next invoice by hand.
FAQ
Can I pay for WordPress hosting with Monero?
Yes. Every host in this guide supports WordPress on its shared plans, usually through a one-click installer, and each one is listed on Monerica as accepting Monero.
Is my website anonymous if I pay with Monero?
Not by payment alone. Your domain's WHOIS record, the email you registered with, the IP address you log in from and the content of the site can all identify you. Monero removes one link, the payment. Our guide to living more privately online covers the rest.
Is it legal to buy hosting without ID?
Yes in most countries. Hosting is not a regulated financial service, and many hosts have never asked for ID. You are still responsible for what you publish.
Shared hosting or a VPS for a small shop?
Shared hosting is enough for a small WooCommerce shop. Move to a VPS when you need custom software such as a self-hosted payment server. See the BTCPay Server setup guide for that route.
What about offshore hosting?
Several hosts above are also listed under Offshore & Privacy Hosting on Monerica. Our no-KYC VPS and offshore hosting guide explains what that label means in practice.
