Service Delivery: Shared / Reseller / WordPress / Application Hosting:

Shared and reseller hosting accounts will be activated instantly upon receipt of payment. Once paid, our systems will automatically provision your account and notify you of any relevant setup information.

Due to our fraud prevention systems, any order may be placed in a “Pending” state awaiting confirmation/acceptance by management. This may cause delays and will prevent the automatic creation of the shared hosting accounts mentioned above.

Cloud / VPS / Dedicated and Other:

Services other than those on our shared hosting environments will be provisioned manually within 48 hours following receipt of the first payment.
