Provider VPSs
Besides the VPSs on your nodes you can resell Hetzner Cloud, Contabo and Scaleway Instances VPSs under your brand. Customers see and use them in your panel like any other.
How to turn it on
- Connect the provider account in Network & IPs › Connect a provider.
- In the provider card, under VPSs to resell, add the zones (e.g.
hc-fsn1for Falkenstein,scw-fr-par-1for Paris): each zone becomes a panel "node". - For each plan choose the provider's product. Contabo does not publish its price list through the API: type the product code (e.g.
V92) and the monthly cost. - In Create VPS choose the zone as the node.
The panel creates the server with cloud-init, waits until it is ready, saves IPv4 and IPv6, sets reverse DNS if the hostname is a domain and records the cost under Orders and costs. Every 5 minutes it reads the status again; a VPS that disappeared from the account shows as "Missing".

Provider notes
- Hetzner Cloud: read and write project token. Prices include VAT, per zone.
- Contabo: billed monthly. Deletion is a cancellation: the VPS is shut down immediately and stays billed until the end of the contract.
- Scaleway: an API key with permissions on Instances and Block Storage, and the project ID. The price shown is the instance type only (excluding VAT): IPv4 and the block disk (as large as the plan's disk) are extra. IPv6 is included. IPv4 and IPv6 stay the same after shutdown. "Dedibox VPS" have no API and cannot be managed from the panel.
