In short: five of the seven hosts below state outright that they do not check identity, and a sixth, VMHeaven, asks for a name and a postal address but no document. Aeza is the exception: its terms reserve the right to ask for documents. The real differences are elsewhere: who takes Monero, where the servers stand, what happens to a copyright complaint, and whether you can get money back.
How we compared
For each host we read the pages a buyer would read before paying: the price list, the terms or acceptable-use policy, the payment page and the refund policy, plus the provider’s own llms.txt where it has one. We only used what the provider says about itself. Review sites, forum threads and our own impressions are not in this table. Where a page was silent, the cell says so instead of guessing.
- KYC is the provider’s own wording about identity checks, not a judgement of how private it is.
- Cheapest VPS is the lowest plan on the page we cite, in the currency it is shown in. Plans differ in memory and storage, so compare the specs, not only the price.
- Copyright is how the provider says it handles a copyright or DMCA complaint. No host on this list allows malware, phishing, spam or CSAM.

The hosts, one by one
VMHeaven
Our sign-up asks for an e-mail address, a name, a password and a postal address for the invoice. We never ask for an ID document, and nothing you enter is verified. We take Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, Litecoin, Monero and more through Cryptomus, plus card and PayPal, at the same price. Our VPS start at €4.99 a month in Amsterdam, on Standard KVM (Intel) and Hi-CPU KVM (AMD EPYC 7443), both sold out in Frankfurt at the moment. DMCA Ignored KVM, from €5.99, and Pentesting KVM, from €6.99, can be ordered in both cities, from €8.99 each in Frankfurt. US DMCA notices are ignored on the DMCA line only, and scanning is allowed on the Pentesting line. Windows Server 2022 or 2019 runs on every plan, on an evaluation licence or your own key. Refunds are account credit, never cash. We have no US location.
PrivateAlps
Per its terms, PrivateAlps does not ask for identity documents and runs no KYC programme. Its FAQ lists Monero among more than 50 coins on its own gateway, and its llms.txt adds cards and bank transfer and names Switzerland and Frankfurt as its locations. Its Linux VPS starts at €12.90 a month for 2 vCPU and 1 GB on KVM, DMCA-ignored, with full-disk encryption available. Its Kali Linux and Parrot Security VPS, pre-configured pentest workstations for authorised testing, start at €14 a month. Payments are final by default, with credit or, in limited cases, a refund if a service fails on its side. Tor exit relays are allowed. More in VMHeaven vs PrivateAlps.
AlexHost
Per its llms.txt, AlexHost requires “no passport or ID” and no KYC. It takes Monero through the xMoney gateway, with cards, PayPal and Google Pay, per its payment methods article. Its VPS page starts at €6 a month for 1 vCore and 1.5 GB, and it sells VPS in eight European countries and Las Vegas from its own data centre in Moldova. Its acceptable usage policy forbids port scanning and Tor exit relays, and gives a full refund within 30 days on a first order, with exceptions. More in VMHeaven vs AlexHost.
Aeza
Aeza is here because people compare it with the others, not because it promises no KYC. Clause 3.5 of its Public Offer lets it ask for documents confirming your details, and clause 10.5 forbids mining, validation, staking, wallets and “any other cryptocurrency activity” on its servers. Its knowledge base recommends USDT, TRON, TON and Litecoin for top-ups, and we found no mention of Monero. Its virtual servers page lists 11 locations, AMD Ryzen 9 9950X CPUs, and plans from €5.93 a month or €0.04 an hour. Per its abuse policy, copyright material is removed on a proper notice under Hong Kong law. The terms return unused balance if you leave early. More in VMHeaven vs Aeza.
UltaHost
Per its anonymous VPS page, UltaHost asks only for an e-mail address, with no ID and no card, and sells VPS from $5.52 a month on a 24-month term ($9.19 list) for 1 core and 1 GB. Monero is among the coins on its payment page. It sells a DMCA-ignored VPS without saying which data centres those plans run in (its anonymous VPS FAQ gives the Netherlands or Switzerland as examples), and its data centre page covers Europe, the Americas and Asia. Its refund policy gives 30 days on a first monthly VPS, but not on longer terms or on anything paid in crypto; its plan cards advertise a 30-day money-back without those limits, so ask before you count on it. More in VMHeaven vs UltaHost.
Bithost
Bithost is a reseller. Per its anonymous VPS page, you sign up with an e-mail address, pay in crypto with no KYC and no card, and it deploys the server on DigitalOcean, Vultr or Linode under its own account, from $0.015 an hour. Its Monero page takes XMR. Its llms.txt adds a $20 minimum top-up, more than 30 locations and Windows on Vultr with the licence included. Per its terms, you must also follow the terms of those three providers, copyright-infringing content is forbidden, and payments are final, with a refund as account credit only where Bithost thinks one is justified. If you want a big cloud’s regions without a card or an account there, this is the model built for it.
FlokiNET
Per its privacy page, FlokiNET requires no ID verification and has no KYC policy. Its payment methods page lists Bitcoin, Litecoin, Zcash, Dash, Monero, Ether, USDT and other coins at no fee, plus PayPal, cards through Stripe, Wise, Paysafecard and cash by post, some of them with fees. Its VPS page starts at €7.99 a month for 1 core and 1 GB on KVM in Romania, with Iceland, the Netherlands and Finland as the other locations. The same page says it does not offer Windows VPS at the moment, and that if you switch to another service after testing, the refund is paid as credit. Per its abuse page, copyright complaints are handled under the law of the country the server is in, need proper documentation, and are not acted on against whistleblower sites.
What “no KYC” does and does not mean
No KYC means the host does not check who you are. It does not make you invisible. Your server has a public IP address and sits under the law of the country it stands in. The payment leaves a trail of its own unless you pay in a way that does not, and every host above acts on malware, phishing and spam. Our guides on what anonymous VPS hosting can and cannot do and on paying for a VPS with crypto anonymously cover the steps that are yours to take, whichever host you pick.
Which one fits
- Lowest monthly price with Monero: VMHeaven, from €4.99 with 4 GB, billed monthly.
- Swiss jurisdiction, or a Tor exit relay: PrivateAlps.
- Iceland, or a whistleblower project: FlokiNET.
- Many locations, the US included: UltaHost or Aeza, after reading the KYC and refund rows. Bithost if you want the big clouds’ regions.
- Money back: AlexHost within 30 days, UltaHost on a monthly plan paid by card or PayPal, or Aeza, which returns unused balance.
- US DMCA notices: PrivateAlps across its VPS range, VMHeaven on DMCA Ignored KVM, UltaHost on its DMCA-ignored VPS (ask where it runs).
- Windows at the entry price: VMHeaven, with Windows RDP on every plan.
- Authorised security testing: VMHeaven’s Pentesting KVM from €6.99, whose policy names zmap and masscan sweeps as allowed, or PrivateAlps’ Kali and Parrot workstations from €14. AlexHost and UltaHost forbid port scans in their terms (AlexHost except on servers you administer); Aeza forbids unauthorised vulnerability scanning.
Whichever you choose, start with one month and the smallest plan. The terms you can live with matter more than any row in this table. If paying in crypto is new to you, our crypto VPS page walks through the checkout.
Frequently asked
Which VPS providers do not require KYC?
Of the hosts checked on 5 Oct 2026, PrivateAlps, AlexHost, UltaHost, Bithost and FlokiNET each state on their own pages that they require no ID or KYC. VMHeaven asks for no ID document either, only a name and a postal address for the invoice. Aeza's terms reserve the right to ask for documents.
Which no-KYC VPS hosts accept Monero?
As of 5 Oct 2026: VMHeaven, PrivateAlps, AlexHost, Bithost and FlokiNET name Monero on their own pages, and UltaHost shows it among its payment logos. Aeza does not name it.
Does no KYC mean anonymous?
No. It means the host does not check who you are. The server still has a public IP, sits under the law of its country, and every host compared here acts on malware, phishing and spam.
Which no-KYC VPS host offers refunds?
As of 5 Oct 2026, AlexHost gives 30 days on a first order, UltaHost's refund policy 30 days on a monthly VPS not paid in crypto (its plan cards advertise 30 days without those limits), and Aeza returns unused balance.
