| Free tier | An 'Always Free' Starter plan at '$0.00 Always Free' with '1 vCPU Core (ARM64)', '2 GB DDR4 ECC RAM', '500 MB NVMe SSD', '10 GB Bandwidth', 'Linux OS Only' and 'SSH Root Access', sold as permanent: 'Yes! The Starter tier (1 vCPU ARM64, 2GB RAM, 500MB NVMe) is genuinely no-cost with no expiry and no credit card ever required.' The plan is still offered today - the order page lists 'Free Linux VPS Starter' with no out-of-stock marker - but four independent accounts, one of them hands-on, report the server never arriving. unit none; metered on none; the plan is a machine, not a metered allowance; the binding constraint is that it is not delivered |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Per-object cap | not applicable |
| Retention | The vendor states no expiry, but adds a login condition on another page: 'Your free Linux VPS will remain active as long as you use it regularly. We require at least one login every 30 days to keep free servers active.' Nothing was observed, because nothing was provisioned. (30 days) |
| Egress | '10 GB Bandwidth' on the Starter plan; what happens above it is not published free_allowance: 10 GB |
| Identity | institution No card - 'No credit card required' - but the registration form at client.vpswala.org/register.php requires 'First Name *', 'Last Name *', 'Email Address', 'Street Address *', 'City *', 'State/Region *', 'Postcode *', a country and a password, with company name and phone present. A verification gate of '.edu or .ac email, a linked GitHub profile, or a company email' is advertised on the Hindi page. A GitHub profile is producible by for a user, so the gate is passable; the obstacle is that passing it did not produce a machine for the reporters. Nothing was signed up for. |
| Limits |
the binding is delivery: the plan is cardless and open, and no server is issued to anyone who has written about it |
| Binding | write-gated the plan is not refused at the price or the identity step, it is refused after them: the order and the support ticket both sit at 'pending', which is the same failure mode the corpus already records for GratisVPS |
| Interface | ssh, rest the plan card promises 'SSH Root Access' and a client panel at client.vpswala.org; no login was attempted and no credentials were requested |
| Tooling | any SSH client, if a server is ever issued; nothing was reachable |
| Composes with | would be a WireGuard or health-monitor node at 500 MB of disk and 10 GB of transfer, if the plan provisioned |
| Reliability | no server was ever observed to exist. A hands-on account reports the order and the ticket both 'pending' after almost three weeks; a forum account reports an instance that cannot be logged into; two Trustpilot reviewers in 2026 report no VPS and a redirect to a Kamatera affiliate link; and the LowEndTalk list of data-harvesting free-VPS providers names vpswala.org. |
| Notes | STILL TRUE, AND WORSE 2026-10-24. That is the wrong axis: identity is passable (a GitHub profile satisfies it, and the form asks for no card). The failure is delivery, so the verdict is dead. Nothing has changed for the better. The plan is still advertised at '$0.00 Always Free' and the order page still lists 'Free Linux VPS Starter' with no out-of-stock marker, so it is not withdrawn - it is simply never fulfilled. The reports now run from 2023 to 2026 and include a 2026 reviewer describing a redirect to a Kamatera affiliate link rather than a server. A vendor that contradicts itself about the gate is not a source for whether the gate was passed. It stays out of the shortlist. What would reopen it: a single corroborated account of a Starter server that answers SSH. Nothing was signed up for. |
| Evidence rung | reported the plan terms are documented from the vendor's own pages; the verdict rests on independent third-party reports of non-delivery, which is the weakest rung among the fields the verdict depends on |
