Start free — no card required
Create an account with no credit card, look around, and claim any free-credit offer in your dashboard. Servers you keep are billed monthly from $6.49 — all-in, no surprises.
Let's be straight with you: Nxeon doesn't hand out a permanently-free server, and neither does anyone reputable — someone always pays for the NVMe, the IP, the bandwidth, and the power. What we do offer is a genuinely free start: you can sign up with no credit card, explore the full dashboard, and see exactly what deploying a server looks like before you spend anything.
When we're running promotions, free-credit and free-VPS offers show up right in your dashboard. If one's live, you claim it there and it covers your first server for the promo period. Because there's no card on file, nothing bills silently the moment a trial ends — you decide when (and whether) to start paying.
After any free credit is used, servers you choose to keep are billed monthly, all-in, from $6.49/mo for the Nano. That price already includes a dedicated IPv4, DDoS protection, and daily backups — so when you do pay, you're getting a complete server, not a stripped trial box.
What 'free' really means here
No credit card to sign up
Create your account and explore the whole dashboard without entering payment details. Nothing can bill you by surprise, because there's no card on file.
Free-credit promos in-dashboard
When offers are running, free-credit and free-VPS promos appear in your dashboard. If one's live, claim it there — it covers a server for the promo period.
See everything before you pay
Walk through the deploy wizard, browse one-click images, and check out the plans and features before committing a cent.
Honest paid pricing
Servers you keep bill monthly from $6.49, all-in. No metered egress, no per-feature add-ons — the plan price is the whole price.
A complete server, not a trial stub
Even the entry plan includes a dedicated IPv4, DDoS protection, a managed firewall, daily backups, and full root. Free-to-start doesn't mean feature-starved.
Cancel or resize any time
Keep a server only as long as you want it, and use one-click resize to scale spend to what you actually use.

Keep it or walk away
Decide if it's worth keeping. Paid servers bill monthly from $6.49; if it's not for you, there's no card on file and nothing to cancel a charge on.
Pick your size
The $6.49 Nano is the natural next step after any free credit — a complete server for a small site, bot, or dev box. Size up to Starter or Standard when you need more, and resize any time without a rebuild.

Questions, answered
Is there a truly free, permanent VPS?+
No — and we won't pretend otherwise. Nobody can give away a real server forever. What's free is getting started: no credit card to sign up, full access to the dashboard, and any free-credit promo we're running that you can claim in-app. Servers you keep are billed monthly from $6.49.
How do I get free credit or a free trial?+
Sign up (no card needed) and check your dashboard. When promotions are active, free-credit and free-VPS offers appear there for you to claim. Availability changes over time, so the dashboard is always the source of truth.
Will I be charged automatically after a trial?+
No. There's no credit card required to sign up, so nothing bills silently when free credit runs out. Your server simply pauses or you're prompted to add payment — you stay in control of when paid billing starts.
What does it cost once the free part ends?+
Servers you keep are billed monthly, all-in, from $6.49/mo for the Nano. That includes a dedicated IPv4, DDoS protection, a managed firewall, and daily backups — no surprise egress or add-on charges.
What can I do during the free start?+
Everything except run a paid server for free: explore the dashboard, walk the deploy wizard, browse one-click images and plans, and — if a promo is live — deploy a real server on free credit with full root access.
Deploy your first server in under a minute
Creating an account is free and takes no card details. You pay when you deploy — choose a billing term and pay from your wallet or by card at checkout.
