Pay for your VPS with crypto
Updated
You can pay for a Wolkra VPS with crypto by topping up your prepaid balance with USDT (TRC-20) or TRX on the TRON network. The credit then pays for KVM servers in Frankfurt, Germany, billed by the hour with unmetered traffic, from €3.49 per month.
Why pay for hosting with crypto
Card payments work for most people, and we accept them. Crypto is useful when cards are not:
- Your bank blocks foreign payments or adds high fees for them.
- You run a project in crypto already, so paying hosting from the same funds keeps accounting simple.
- You want a prepaid limit that no one can overdraw.
- You work across borders and stablecoins are easier than international transfers.
USDT on TRON is a common choice for this because transfers are quick and network fees are usually low compared with many other chains. TRX works as well if you hold it directly.
Supported coins and networks
| Asset | Network | Supported |
|---|---|---|
| USDT | TRON (TRC-20) | Yes |
| TRX | TRON | Yes |
| USDT on other networks | Ethereum, BNB Chain and others | No |
| Other coins | Any | No |
Always check the network before you send. A payment on the wrong network can't be credited to your account.
How a crypto top-up works
- Sign in to the console and open your balance.
- Choose Top up and select USDT (TRC-20) or TRX.
- Choose the amount in euros. The console locks the exchange rate for 60 minutes and shows the TRON address and the exact token amount to send. The amount has a few extra decimals so your payment can be matched to you.
- Send exactly that amount from your wallet or exchange within the 60 minutes. If an exchange deducts its withdrawal fee from the amount, add the fee so the exact amount arrives.
- Once the transfer is confirmed on the network, the credit appears in your balance. A payment that doesn't match is not credited automatically; contact support with the transaction hash.
From then on, the balance pays for servers and add-ons exactly as a card top-up would. More about every option on payment methods.
What your crypto buys
Your balance pays for the same platform every customer uses:
- KVM servers in Frankfurt, with Standard, CPU-optimised and Memory-optimised plans.
- Unmetered traffic with fair use, on ports up to 10 Gbit/s shared. See unmetered bandwidth VPS.
- Linux images including Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, CentOS Stream and Fedora, plus MikroTik CHR.
- One-click apps such as Docker, WordPress, n8n, Coolify, WireGuard and GitLab CE.
- Volumes, backups, snapshots, private networks, load balancers and floating IPs.

Prepaid and hourly: a good match for crypto
Because Wolkra is prepaid, crypto fits naturally. You send a top-up, and servers draw from it per started hour, never more than the monthly price in a month. There are no invoices to settle afterwards and no card to expire.
| Step | What happens |
|---|---|
| Top-up | USDT or TRX credited to your EUR balance |
| Usage | Each server charged per started hour, capped monthly |
| Low balance | Email warnings before anything stops |
| Zero balance | Grace period, then servers are stopped |
| Final notice | Servers are deleted only after it |
To keep things running, top up a little before your balance runs low. Since automatic top-ups only work by card, crypto customers should keep an eye on the low-balance emails. See billing and balance and hourly billing VPS.
Who uses crypto payments with us
- Developers outside the EU who want servers in Germany but can't easily pay by card.
- Web3 teams running nodes, indexers, bots or dashboards.
- Freelancers paid in stablecoins who prefer to pay suppliers the same way.
- Privacy-conscious users who would rather not share card details with another service.
Whatever the reason, the same Terms and Acceptable Use Policy apply. Abuse reports to [email protected] are handled with deadlines for every account.
A few practical tips
- Send from a wallet you control or from an exchange that supports TRON withdrawals, and double-check the address before you confirm.
- Keep a little TRX in your wallet if you send USDT, since TRON network fees are paid in TRX.
- Top up ahead of time, for example when the first low-balance email arrives, so servers never reach the grace period.
Where your server runs
All servers run in Frankfurt am Main, the centre of Europe, with low latency across Europe and data stored in Germany. See VPS Germany and the Frankfurt location for more.

Frequently asked questions
Which cryptocurrencies does Wolkra accept?
We accept USDT on the TRON network (TRC-20) and TRX. Other coins and networks are not supported, so don't send them.
How does a crypto top-up reach my account?
You start a top-up in the console, which locks the rate for 60 minutes and shows a TRON address and an exact token amount. Send exactly that amount; the credit is added once the transfer is confirmed on the network.
Can I mix crypto and card payments?
Yes. Both add to the same prepaid balance, so you can top up with USDT one month and by card the next.
Is the price different when I pay with crypto?
No. Plans are priced in EUR without VAT, and your balance is in EUR whichever way you top it up.
Do the usual rules still apply to crypto customers?
Yes. Our Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy apply to every account, and abuse reports are handled the same way regardless of payment method.
