Blesta Hosting
A sensible home for your Blesta billing portal
Blesta is self-hosted billing and client management software used by hosting providers, agencies, and service businesses. A billing portal needs a cleaner setup than an ordinary brochure site: working cron, SSL, mail delivery, backups, and careful access control.
We help customers choose between application hosting, VPS hosting, and reseller hosting depending on how Blesta will be used. For licence and installation details, start with our current Blesta installation guide.

Common Questions
Can TekLan host Blesta?
Yes. Blesta can be hosted on application hosting or a VPS when the required PHP version, ionCube Loader, database access, HTTPS, and cron jobs are configured correctly.
Should Blesta run on shared hosting or a VPS?
Application hosting can suit a small billing portal. Use a VPS when you need root access, custom mail routing, server-level modules, or stricter separation from public websites.
Can I use Blesta with reseller hosting?
Yes. Blesta can be paired with reseller hosting so billing, order forms, and customer communication stay separate from the customer websites you provision.
