Everything You Need to Know About FlyWP’s Flexible Pricing & Customizable Managed Hosting

1. Announcement Overview

FlyWP billing model is designed to make pricing simpler, more transparent, and easier to scale.

Instead of traditional tiered plans, FlyWP billing will move to a server-based pricing model, where customers pay only for the number of servers they manage.

This billing update affects different groups of FlyWP users in different ways.

New FlyWP Users

All accounts created after April 1, 2026 will use server-based pricing model.

Existing Subscription Customers

Current plan users can continue using their existing plan until their current subscription cycle.
After that, users will be migrated to the new server-based pricing model.

FlyWP Managed Server Users

Managed server customers will not require a FlyWP platform subscription anymore.

Lifetime Deal Customers

Lifetime deals remain unaffected by this change.

Effective Date: 01 April 2026

Summary of the Update

Plan-based pricing will be removed.
Billing will be calculated based on the number of servers managed in FlyWP.
All features will become available to all users, excluding addons.
Pricing will scale automatically as infrastructure grows.

This change is designed to reduce complexity, remove feature restrictions, and align pricing with real infrastructure usage.

2. Why We’re Making This Change

Over time, FlyWP has evolved to support a wide range of users, from solo developers to agencies managing dozens of servers. Our previous pricing structure introduced limitations that didn’t always reflect how users actually scale their infrastructure.

The new billing model addresses these challenges by focusing on simplicity, fairness, and scalability.

Simplifying FlyWP Pricing

The previous plan-based system required users to choose between predefined tiers. While this worked initially, it created unnecessary complexity when users needed to scale.

The new model removes this friction by making pricing directly proportional to the number of servers managed.

Removing Feature Restrictions

Previously, certain features were tied to higher-tier plans. With the new model:

All features are available to all users
No feature-based restrictions
No need to upgrade plans to unlock features

Aligning Cost With Infrastructure Usage

FlyWP usage typically grows with infrastructure. Agencies and developers add servers as they scale client projects.

The new pricing ensures that cost grows naturally alongside infrastructure, rather than requiring plan upgrades.

Supporting Agencies and Growing Teams

Agencies often manage multiple servers across different projects. The new billing system introduces progressive pricing, which automatically lowers per-server cost as the number of servers increases.

Improving Long-Term Pricing Transparency

With server-based billing:

Pricing is predictable
Scaling is automatic
Users only pay for what they actually use

This creates a clear, transparent pricing structure for long-term growth.

3. What’s Changing

3.1 Moving Away From Plan-Based Pricing

FlyWP will no longer offer the traditional subscription tiers:

Hobby Plan
Growth Plan
Business Plan

Instead, billing will be calculated based on the number of servers managed through FlyWP.

This removes the need for plan upgrades and makes pricing more flexible for users managing multiple environments.

3.2 New Per-Server Pricing

The new billing structure uses progressive pricing.

Servers Managed	Price Per Server
1–3 Servers	$5 / server
4–9 Servers	$4 / server
10+ Servers	$3 / server

Key Benefits

Progressive Pricing

As the number of servers increases, the cost per server decreases automatically.

Automatic Cost Reduction

Users managing larger infrastructures will benefit from lower per-server pricing without needing to upgrade or switch plans.

No Tier Upgrades

There are no pricing tiers. The system automatically calculates billing based on the total number of active servers.

3.3 No Subscription on Managed Servers

For FlyWP Managed Servers, there will be no FlyWP subscription fee.

You will be able to provision and manage servers directly through FlyWP with greater flexibility. Choose your preferred cloud provider (DO, Vultr, Akamai), configure your stack, and maintain full control while FlyWP handles the heavy lifting.

Previously, you needed to pay separately for FlyWP and your cloud provider. Now, everything is simplified into one payment through FlyWP. There’s no need to pay for the FlyWP control panel separately; you’ll get the server and the FlyWP panel together in a single payment.

Everything is managed in one place, giving you a simpler and more streamlined WordPress hosting experience at an affordable price.

This means:

No additional FlyWP platform subscription
Billing is tied directly to the server infrastructure
Simple, transparent pricing for managed environments

4. What’s NOT Changing

While the billing model is evolving, the core FlyWP platform experience remains the same.

The following features and capabilities will continue exactly as before:

Unlimited WordPress sites per server
The same server management workflow
The existing performance stack
Security and deployment tools
Automation and developer utilities

FlyWP will continue to include the same powerful performance stack, including:

Nginx
LiteSpeed
Redis
Optimized WordPress configuration

Your workflows, deployments, and existing environments will remain unaffected.

5. No More Feature Lock

One of the biggest improvements in the new billing model is the removal of feature-based restrictions.

All FlyWP features will now be available to every user, regardless of the number of servers they manage.

What This Means

No premium feature tiers
No restricted tools
No forced plan upgrades to unlock functionality

Included Features

Every FlyWP user will have access to the full platform, including:

Git deployment
Redis caching
SSH access
WordPress Multisite support
Backup management
Magic login
Bulk WordPress updates
Instant demo sites

This ensures equal access to the full FlyWP experience for developers, agencies, and teams of any size.

6. How Billing Will Work

6.1 Server-Based Billing

Billing will now be calculated based on active servers managed in FlyWP.

Each active server contributes to the total monthly billing amount according to the pricing table.

No plan upgrades or manual changes are required.

6.2 Automatic Scaling

The billing system automatically adjusts based on infrastructure.

Adding servers

Increases the total monthly cost

Removing servers

Decreases the total monthly cost

This allows users to scale infrastructure freely without worrying about plan limitations.

6.3 Billing Cycle

FlyWP will operate on a monthly billing cycle.

At this time:

No annual billing option
Charges calculated monthly
Billing adjusts automatically based on real-time server count and usage

7. What Existing Customers Need to Do

7.1 Existing Plan Users

Current FlyWP users can continue using their existing plans temporarily. (Till Current Subscription Ends)

There will be no immediate disruption to existing subscriptions.

Users will have the option to migrate to the new server-based pricing model when it becomes available.

7.2 Migration Process

When migration opens:

Users will see the option to switch to the new pricing model.
Migration can be completed from the FlyWP billing dashboard.
After switching, billing will be calculated based on the number of active servers.

Further instructions will be provided when the migration process is released.
