## NoctHost

- `compute/nocthost-gpu` | paid-only | evidence documented | binding write-gated | category GPU cloud
- needs card no, phone no, ID no, institution no | verified 2026-11-03T07:36:22.304Z (live) | stale on 2026-12-04
- url https://nocthost.com/gpu-vps
- free tier: no free tier is published; GPU VPS by the hour from a prepaid balance: fractional A16 from USD 0.085 an hour for 2 GB of VRAM, A16 16 GB USD 0.658, RTX 4000 Ada 20 GB USD 0.726, A40 48 GB USD 2.40. None of H100, A100, L40S, RTX 4090 or L4 is listed. | unit: none | metered on: wall-clock | read on: 2026-11-03 | source: [1] | note: cards are allocated on Vultr and other providers behind the one NoctHost account
- per-object cap: not applicable | source: [1] | note: sizes run from 2 GB to 192 GB of VRAM
- retention: a GPU server is deleted, not archived, if the balance reaches zero | source: [1] | note: regular servers are snapshotted first; a GPU machine is not
- egress: traffic beyond the included amount is billed at USD 0.01 per GB from the balance | metered: yes | free allowance: an included amount that depends on the size | source: [2]
- identity: email | detail: The FAQ answers 'An email address is all you need to register.' with no documents, selfies or phone numbers; a crypto top-up needs nothing else. Cards are also accepted by a payment partner that asks for billing details.
- interface: rest, ssh
- limits:
  - write-gated (binding): a server is deployed from a prepaid balance; top-ups are final, with USDT from USD 5, other coins from USD 20 and cards from USD 20 [3]
- limits note: Deployment is gated on a prepaid, non-refundable balance.
- binding note: the same as limits note
- interface detail: taken from the API page, which says the platform is an email address and a REST API away, and the GPU page, which gives root over SSH; not probed
- tooling: REST API with register, balance, deploy, poll and destroy steps; root over SSH with a dedicated IPv4; the NVIDIA driver preinstalled
- composes with: Crypto or card top-up with an email-only account, deployed hourly across 33 cities through one API; the GPU cards are hourly-billed sizes of A16, A40 and RTX 4000 Ada.
- reliability: A GPU server is deleted when the balance reaches zero and its disk is not kept; a low-balance warning is sent by email beforehand.
- notes: Found via computeprices.com (provider slug nocthost). An existing record, compute/tothost, is a different vendor. The cheapest fractional A16 slice is below the aggregator's USD 0.658 row.
