OpenClaw on Hostinger VPS

Budget VPS with one-click OpenClaw template — AI credits included

Hostinger offers budget VPS with a dedicated OpenClaw hosting page. KVM 1 starts around $5.99/mo (intro pricing) with 1 vCPU, 4GB RAM, and 50GB NVMe—enough to run OpenClaw comfortably. Some plans include Nexos AI credits, which can reduce or eliminate the need for separate LLM API keys. Hostinger has a one-click Docker template for OpenClaw, making setup faster if you prefer containers.

US datacenter coverage is more limited than Hetzner or DigitalOcean, but for users in supported regions, Hostinger is a cost-effective option.

Plans

  • KVM 1 — ~$5.99/mo intro (renews higher). 1 vCPU, 4GB RAM, 50GB NVMe. Suitable for personal OpenClaw.
  • KVM 2 — ~$8.99/mo. 2 vCPU, 8GB RAM, 100GB NVMe. For heavier use or teams.

Check Hostinger's OpenClaw page for current pricing and AI credit offers.

Setup Options

Option 1: One-click template — Hostinger's OpenClaw template pre-installs OpenClaw (often via Docker). Select it when creating a VPS and follow Hostinger's docs.

Option 2: Manual install — Same as other VPS: create a KVM VPS, SSH in, run the OpenClaw one-liner, then PM2 for persistence.

Manual install
curl -fsSL https://openclaw.ai/install.sh | bash
npm install -g pm2
openclaw init
pm2 start 'openclaw gateway start' --name openclaw
pm2 save
pm2 startup
