Upgrade or downgrade your hosting plan

Move between Hostiko hosting tiers anytime, prorated automatically.

You can change your plan at any time from your client dashboard. The price difference is prorated automatically based on the days remaining in your billing cycle.

How to upgrade

  1. Log into client dashboard.
  2. Find your active service → click "Upgrade Plan".
  3. Pick the new plan → review the prorated price → pay via M-Pesa.
  4. The upgrade is applied within minutes — no downtime, no migration.

How to downgrade

Same flow, but pick a lower plan. Heads up: if your current usage exceeds the lower plan's limits (e.g. you're using 12 GB and downgrade to a 10 GB plan), you'll need to clean up first. We'll warn you on the upgrade screen if this applies.

When does an upgrade make sense?

  • Disk usage is over 80% of your plan limit.
  • You see "resource limit exceeded" errors during traffic spikes.
  • You're adding a second site that doesn't fit your current plan.
  • You want LiteSpeed cache acceleration (included from Business tier and up).

Upgrading to VPS or Managed WordPress

Moving from shared to VPS or Managed WordPress requires a full migration (different infrastructure). It's still free — just takes a few hours and is coordinated by our team.
