Questions about Free Node.js Hosting

We've put our frequently asked questions right here, so you have your answers before you even start.

Still have questions or just want to chat?

Where can I host Node.js for free?

Here! The free plan runs one Node.js bot or app with 128 MB of RAM around the clock, as long as you press Renew once a day.

How much fits in 128 MB?

A Discord or Telegram bot, a Discord webhook notifier, an uptime checker, or a small Express API with light traffic. Node.js itself uses part of the memory, so if your app keeps hitting the limit, a 256 MB plan is the next step.

Does it really run 24/7?

Yes. The container never sleeps, and if your app crashes it starts again by itself. All you do is renew the free plan in the panel once a day.

Is this a VPS?

No, FPS.ms does not offer VPS hosting. Your Node.js application runs in a container managed by FPS.ms. This means you never have to update its operating system, install security patches or keep the machine running yourself.

Can I install any npm package?

Yes! Add it to your package.json and it installs when your server starts.

Can people reach my app from the internet?

Yes! Every free server gets its own Public URL with HTTPS, like swift-heron.hostedbyfps.com, so a small API or webhook works on the free plan.

How do I run something on a schedule?

Let your app run its own timers, or use the Schedules tab to restart your server or send a console command on a timer.

What are the limits?

128 MB of RAM, 25% of one CPU core and 250 MB of storage. The free plan has no database and no backup slot.

What if I forget to renew?

Your app stops until you renew it. Renew within 28 days to bring it back with all your files; after that, the server is removed.

How do I move to a paid plan?

Upgrade from the panel and keep your files and settings. Paid Node.js hosting adds memory, CPU, a MariaDB database and backups.

Ready to run your Node.js app for free?

Deploy your first Container for free. Upgrade if you need GitHub Deploys, more resources or a database.
