Run your own VPN on your own VPS

A commercial VPN asks you to trust a company you cannot audit. Your own WireGuard endpoint on a €1.90 server asks you to trust yourself, and gives you an exit IP nobody else shares — which is precisely why it stops getting blocked.

Why people move here

VPS for a personal VPN

01

The Nano plan is genuinely enough

WireGuard is a kernel module, not a service. One vCPU and 2 GB of memory saturate a gigabit port with headroom to spare — the bottleneck will be your home connection, not the server.

02

A residential-grade exit IP nobody shares

Streaming services and banks block VPN providers by blocklisting their address ranges. A dedicated IPv4 in a hosting prefix behaves quite differently from a known VPN pool, because thousands of people are not behind it.

03

Up in under a minute

The wg-easy image ships with a web console and a QR code per peer. Deploy, open the panel, scan with your phone, done. OpenVPN and IKEv2 images are there if you need protocol compatibility instead.

04

Pick the country you actually want to appear in

Forty-two sites across thirty-one countries, all at the same price, and you can rebuild into a different one whenever you like. Latency to your own exit is the number that matters — the locations table lists it for every site.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

01Can I run a VPN, a Tor relay or a proxy?
Yes to all three, and thousands of customers do. Tor exit nodes are permitted in Amsterdam, Reykjavík, Chișinău and Bucharest, and we ask you to run the standard reduced exit policy and set an abuse contact. Exits are not permitted in the remaining regions, because their upstreams do not tolerate them and we would rather tell you that than have your server disappear.
02Which region should I pick?
The one closest to your users, not to you. Every location costs the same, so there is no reason to compromise. The locations page lists median round trip from residential probes in each metro, and there is a live latency test on every site page. If you are unsure, Frankfurt and Amsterdam reach the most people in the fewest milliseconds.
03How many IP addresses do I get?
One dedicated IPv4 and a routed /64 of IPv6 with every plan. Up to eight extra IPv4 addresses can be added at €1.20 each per month, assigned from the region's own prefix so geolocation stays consistent. A routed /48 of IPv6 is €2 a month if you are running your own network behind us.
04No KYC — so anything goes?
No. No identity checks means we do not care who you are; it does not mean we do not care what leaves our network. Phishing, spam, malware distribution, botnet command-and-control, credential stuffing, outbound attacks and material involving minors get the instance terminated immediately, without refund and without appeal. The acceptable use policy is two pages, written in plain language, and we apply all of it.
