## AlphaVPS, C6G (Cheap VPS ladder)

- needs card yes, phone no, ID no, institution no | verified 2026-11-02T02:17:41.061Z (live) | stale on 2026-12-03
- url https://alphavps.com/cheap-vps
- price parsed USD 5.59/mo
- disagrees on verdict: `compute/alphavps` says paid-only, `compute/alphavps-c6g` says qualifies
- disagrees on identity_kind: `compute/alphavps-c2g` says email, `compute/alphavps-c6g` says card
- disagrees on verdict: `compute/alphavps-c2g` says paid-only, `compute/alphavps-c6g` says qualifies
- free tier: no free tier; the ladder starts at EUR 2.54 a month on annual billing for the 2 GB C2G rung | unit: none | metered on: none | read on: 2026-10-24 | source: [1]
- per-object cap: not applicable
- retention: the disk persists while the plan is paid; a 14-day money-back guarantee applies
- egress: 6 TB a month on a port listed as 'up to 10 GBit'; the page sells transfer as flat rather than metered | metered: no | free allowance: 6 TB | source: [1]
- identity: card | detail: card, PayPal or crypto at checkout: 'Cards, PayPal and crypto.' on https://alphavps.com/cheap-vps, and the page advertises 'NO ID HOOPS'. Hold amount: not published on https://alphavps.com/cheap-vps, on the order form, on https://alphavps.com/clients/cart.php?a=checkout&e=false or in the terms, which put a manual order check where a card check would sit: 'All orders placed with AlphaVPS are subject to manual verification' and 'All anonymous orders would be rejected.' Charged or verified: the plan itself is charged in full and no separate verification amount is published. Prepaid and virtual cards: not published.
- interface: ssh
- limits:
  - volume-quota (binding): 6 TB a month of transfer [1]
- binding note: 6 TB is the only published ceiling and it stops hard rather than billing overage.
- interface detail: root SSH in about 60 seconds, plus a client area for reinstall and resize
- tooling: any SSH client; WHMCS client area; no API documented on the page read
- composes with: a multi-service box: the 6 GiB and 3 vCPU run a database, a queue worker and a small web app on one invoice
- reliability: no reliability event observed; the vendor advertises a 99.9% uptime SLA and a 14-day money-back guarantee
- notes: CONFIRMED, unchanged. EUR 50.90 a year / 12 = EUR 4.24 a month = USD 4.75 at the ECB rate. The renewal claim holds and is stated three ways on one page: the promo banner, the invoice block and FAQ 04. Worst case exposure is 1.0x because the discount is stated as locked at renewal: there is no month 13 where the price moves. This remains the only row in the band whose sub-USD-5 monthly is a recurring rate rather than a first-term promo. Shape is 3 vCPU / 6 GiB / 55 GB / 6 TB: less RAM than the 8 GiB rows, more CPU than most of them.
- evidence note: shape, monthly price, annual price, term, transfer and port quoted from the vendor's own pricing table and JSON-LD read; the renewal sentence is quoted from three separate places on the same page.
- extras:
  - shape.vcpu: 3
  - shape.ram_gib: 6
  - shape.disk_gib: 55
  - billing_model: annual prepay or monthly
  - term: 12 months (or monthly at EUR 4.99)
  - m10h_usd: 4.75
  - m24h_usd: 4.75
  - price_arithmetic: EUR 50.90 a year / 12 = EUR 4.2417 a month; x 1.1193 (ECB reference, 2026-10-23) = USD 4.747, rounded USD 4.75. Monthly billing is EUR 4.99 = USD 5.59, over the line. It is a VPS, so the monthly bill is the bill and there is no 730-hour multiplication.
  - out_of_pocket_usd: 56.97
  - renewal_usd: 4.75
  - renewal_note: published three times on the page: 'LOCKED AT RENEWAL, FOREVER', 'The price on the order form is the price on every invoice - renewal included.', and FAQ 04 'the annual -15% stays locked for the life of the service'.

  - session_cap.restart_required: no
  - session_cap.note: none; it is a VPS
  - renewal_evidence: alphavps.com/cheap-vps banner, invoice block and FAQ 04
  - vat: the page states 'PRICES EXCL. VAT' with a VAT / REST OF WORLD selector, so the EUR 50.90 is before VAT and a non-EU buyer pays it
  - checkout.order_url: https://alphavps.com/clients/cart.php?a=add&pid=509&billingcycle=annually
  - checkout.order_url_verified: the add-to-cart URL redirects to https://alphavps.com/clients/store/cheap-cloud-vps; the configure step is https://alphavps.com/clients/cart.php?a=confproduct&i=0 and the checkout is https://alphavps.com/clients/cart.php?a=checkout&e=false
  - checkout.in_stock: yes, in Sofia and Los Angeles; four of the six locations are sold out
  - checkout.stock_evidence: the Location selector on the order form lists 'Sofia, Bulgaria' with a latency figure and no stock flag, 'Los Angeles, US' likewise, and marks London, Nuremberg, Dallas, New York and Seattle 'Out of stock'
  - checkout.payment_methods: Credit Cards (Stripe); PayPal; Bank wire; Crypto via CoinGate (BTC); Alipay; PayPal (Legacy)
  - checkout.debit: accepted per the vendor's own FAQ ('Credit and debit cards, PayPal, and major cryptocurrencies'); the checkout's own list says only 'Credit Cards (Stripe)', so the debit claim rests on the FAQ, not on the form
  - checkout.hold: not published: no hold, deposit or minimum top-up is stated on https://alphavps.com/cheap-vps, on the order form or on the checkout, and the terms place a manual order verification in place of a card…
  - checkout.checkout_asks: First Name, Last Name, Email Address, Phone Number; then Billing Address: Company (optional), Street Address, Street Address 2 (optional), City, Postcode, Country, VAT Number (optional); then a password. No ID document field, no company requirement
  - checkout.first_payment_eur: 50.9
  - checkout.first_payment_note: the order summary reads 'Setup Fees: €0.00EUR' and 'Total Due Today €50.90EUR'
  - checkout.vat: prices are ex-VAT and the cart's own tax estimator adds it by country: with Country=United States the summary shows 'Subtotal €50.90EUR' and 'Total Due Today €50.90EUR' with no tax line; with Country=Germany the same cart shows 'VAT @ 19.00% €9.67EUR' and 'Total Due Today €60.57EUR'. A non-EU buyer pays the ex-VAT figure
  - checkout.renewal_at_checkout: the checkout form carries no renewal sentence; the plan page's banner, invoice block and FAQ 04 carry it (see renewal_note)
  - checkout.non_eu_buyable: yes on the evidence: the checkout takes any of the ~200 countries in its Country selector, asks for no ID and no local address, and the vendor's page advertises 'NO TICKETS · NO ID HOOPS · NO "PENDING REVIEW"'
  - checkout.currency: billed in EUR; the site header carries a EUR / BGN / USD selector, so a USD invoice is offered, but the USD figure was not read, so the conversion in price_arithmetic stands on the ECB rate rather than on a USD invoice
  - signup_url: https://alphavps.com/clients/cart.php?a=add&pid=509
  - cart_url: https://alphavps.com/clients/cart.php?a=add&pid=509
  - worst_case_exposure_x: 1.0
  - worst_case_note: renewal / promo = 4.75 / 4.75 = 1.0x. There is no step-up to be exposed to, which is why this row is the band's reference point.
  - payment_methods: cards, PayPal and crypto, quoted from FAQ 05: 'Cards, PayPal and crypto.'; no card hold, deposit or minimum top-up is published on the plan page, the order form or the checkout
  - stock: in stock; the cart URL renders the rung with an Add to Cart control. Read at https://alphavps.com/clients/cart.php?a=add&pid=509

- needs card yes, phone no, ID no, institution no | verified 2026-10-21 (inherited) | stale on 2026-11-05
- url https://alphavps.com/storage-vps
- price $3.74/TB/mo (€3.33). At 5 TB: not a ladder rung — cheapest 5 TB shape is 4 TB + 2 TB = €20.00/mo = €3.33/TB = $3.74/TB. At 20 TB: exceeds the 16 TB per-VPS ceiling, so cheapest shape is 16 TB (€53.33) + 4 TB (€13.33) on a second VPS = €66.66/mo = €3.33/TB = $3.74/TB. Price is flat from 1 TB to 16… | parsed USD 3.73/TB-mo
- free tier: 256 GB / 512 GB / 1 TB / 2 TB / 3 TB / 4 TB / 8 TB / 16 TB. 16 TB is the ceiling on a single VPS; the ladder is flat-priced, so €/TB does not improve above 1 TB. | unit: TB | metered on: unstated | read on: 2026-10-21 | source: [1]
- per-object cap: not stated | source: [1] | note: not stated
- retention: not stated | source: [1] | note: not stated
- egress: Metered, not free. Plan transfer allowances: 1 TB plan = 3 TB/mo, 2 TB plan = 6 TB, 4 TB = 10 TB, 8 TB = 20 TB, 16 TB = 40 TB, all on ports 'up to 10 Gbit'. Overage is charged, not throttled: the provider, §Traffic Usage, read 'All account plans come with a predetermined monthly amount of traffic allowance. We charge 3.0EUR additional per TB over the allowance, unless otherwise agreed upon.' (https://alphavps.com/terms). The backup-storage landing page separately advertises 'No egress fees, no vendor lock-in' and 'EGRESS €0 - FLAT' — that is marketing copy contradicted and the provider are the binding document. Treat egress as €3/TB metered. | metered: no | free allowance: 3 TB per month | price per TB: €3/TB | source: [2]
- identity: card | detail: card
- interface: s3, rest, webdav, sftp, rsync, nfs, rclone
- limits note: per-object-cap: none (block device). RAID-60 with NVMe read cache. 14-day money-back on FIRST order only, excludes promos, crypto, and orders from China.
- interface detail: sftp, rsync, nfs, rest (self-hosted: MinIO/SeaweedFS/Nextcloud on the VPS, or WebDAV)
- tooling: rclone over SFTP/WebDAV, BorgBackup, Restic, rsync. No native S3 — you host your own gateway.
- composes with: Best of the VPS class for the archive half: root KVM, so AList/OpenList or MinIO can be installed and fronted by Cloudflare for cache-covered egress. Not usable as a raw S3 origin without running MinIO.
- reliability: Bulgarian operator (DA International Group Ltd.), own AS203380 since 2013, 99.9% uptime SLA in the published SLA. Long-running positive sentiment on LowEndTalk; one 2022 thread documents a bad provisioning experience but not data loss.
- notes: the same as the free tier
- extras:
  - price_verbatim: $3.74/TB/mo (€3.33). At 5 TB: not a ladder rung — cheapest 5 TB shape is 4 TB + 2 TB = €20.00/mo = €3.33/TB = $3.74/TB. At 20 TB: exceeds the 16 TB per-VPS ceiling, so cheapest shape is 16 TB (€53.33) + 4 TB (€13.33) on a second VPS = €66.66/mo = €3.33/TB = $3.74/TB.

- free tier: No free tier. The entry plan C2G is EUR 2.54 a month on annual billing, EUR 30.50 a year, and the vendor states it is 'flat at renewal'. | unit: none | metered on: none | read on: 2026-10-24 | source: [1]

- interface: ssh
- limits:
  - volume-quota (binding): 3 TB a month of transfer on C2G [1]
- binding note: 3 TB a month is the published ceiling, but 2 GiB of RAM and a 30 GB disk are what a daily driver meets first.
- interface detail: root SSH; the plan ships 1 IPv4 plus a /64 IPv6
- tooling: any SSH client; a documented CLI in the page's own illustration, which is marketing copy and not a verified interface
- composes with: the only machine whose vendor markets a WireGuard endpoint as a supported use, which removes the 'is a VPN allowed' question from the decision
- reliability: Vendor states it owns the fleet rather than reselling.
- notes: Converted at 1 USD = EUR 0.89342 (frankfurter.app, rates dated 2026-10-23): EUR 30.50 = USD 34.14 a year = USD 2.84 a month. The vendor's own storage tier starts at EUR 1.67 a month and would still be over the line.
