FAQ

Do you offer a demo of MyKinsta?

Yes! Our expert Sales Team is ready to provide you with a demo, free of charge. Enter your information and our team will be in touch.

Do you have a free trial?

For Application Hosting and Database Hosting:

Yes. Sign up for a new account and $20 will be automatically added to your account balance. Use this towards server resources for Application Hosting and/or Database hosting for one month.

The $20 starts depleting when you add your first app or database service on your MyKinsta dashboard, not when you sign up for your account.

Note: This $20 free trial during your first month does not “roll over” to the second month. For example, if you only use $8 within your first monthly billing cycle, you cannot keep the remaining $12 off for the next monthly billing cycle.

For Managed WordPress Hosting:

Not exactly. We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. This allows you to try it out risk-free. We also offer free migrations for most website situations (restrictions apply for larger multisite networks, certain eCommerce sites, or unusual situations).

Am I charged when I enter my credit card?

For Application Hosting and Database Hosting:

No. You won’t be billed until the end of your first monthly billing cycle. At the end of your first month, you’ll be billed for the server resources you previously used.

For Managed WordPress Hosting:

Yes. Managed WordPress hosting plans are pre-paid, unlike Application Hosting or Database Hosting plans which are post-paid. If you have a new or existing Managed WordPress plan, that will be billed at the beginning of your monthly billing cycle.

How does billing work?

For Application Hosting and Database Hosting:

You only pay for the server resources your app/database used in a post-payment method. We charge monthly at the end of your billing cycle. All services are prorated to the second. This means you only pay for what you use each day. If you create a service and delete it after a day, you pay just for the time used on that day.

For Managed WordPress Hosting:

WordPress sites are pre-paid each month. You can get two months free when you set up annual billing.

Do You Have an Affiliate Program?

For Application Hosting and Database Hosting:

Yes! Earn 5% lifetime recurring commissions on referrals to Kinsta Application Hosting by sharing your affiliate link when recommending Kinsta to your clients, adding your affiliate link to GitHub, Bitbucket, or GitLab repositories and deployment guides, inserting your affiliate ID when transferring a site, and much more!
