Connect your Contabo account and Nuvlo creates hardened servers in it, deploys your sites and backs them up. Contabo bills you directly at its list price.
Contabo bills monthly contracts. Commit for longer and the monthly price drops, and each euro buys more memory than at the other euro-billed providers.
Committed for 12 months, €56.16 over the term. Deleting cancels the contract at the end of the paid term.

What does a Contabo server cost with Nuvlo?
Contabo bills its list price, from €5.50 a month for Cloud VPS 4. Nuvlo is separate: free for one server and 1 site, paid plans from €12 a month.
Do I need my own Contabo account?
Yes. Nuvlo creates servers in your account with the credentials you connect, and Contabo bills you directly.
Can I connect more than one account?
Yes. Connect several accounts per provider, for example one per client.
What happens to the server if I leave Nuvlo?
It stays in your Contabo account and keeps running: a standard Ubuntu server with nginx that you can SSH into with your key.
Can I use an existing Contabo server?
Yes. An existing server can be reinstalled as a Nuvlo server. Reinstalling wipes the machine, so back up first.
Can I make a server bigger later?
In the provider’s own panel, then “Sync from provider” in Nuvlo. Smaller plans: no, upgrades only. Contabo’s API cannot change a server’s product. Upgrade it in the Contabo Customer Panel, then sync the plan here. Contabo does not offer downgrades.
How do backups work on Contabo?
Nuvlo backs up files and databases to your own storage bucket on any schedule from hourly to monthly. Contabo’s own server backups aren’t available through Nuvlo. Snapshots: included.
What happens when I delete a server?
Deleting cancels the contract at the end of the paid term. The server runs until then.
Your first server and site are free, with no card and no time limit. Connect a provider token and Nuvlo starts building it.
