Notification Card Types
Background Notification Card
Recent Plan
$X USD - X RAM, X Coree(s), X Disk, X Data, in LOCATION.
Background notifications appear when a plan's configuration changes. These notifications persist even when the page is closed. We try our best to respect your requirements, but this is in beta. May later include price updates as well. Visit site daily to keep subscription active.
Live Notification Card
VPS Deal Alerts
X% OFF - $X, X RAM, X Disk, X Core, X data, LOCATION.
X% OFF - $X, X RAM, X Disk, X Core, X data, LOCATION.
Live notifications appear only when the page is open and alert you about newly detected plans. Price updates are not included. You can of course also combine them with sound and TTS alerts.
Don't forget to disable notifications before leaving the site if you don't want background notifications! We try to also respect your notification settings. Background notifications now work with your notification filter settings, but leaving the website open may be more accurate.
The test button simulates all active notifications based on your current settings. Use this to verify which alerts will trigger and how they appear. Live notification card only (not background.)
Other Options
Adjust settings for RAM, CPU, Disk, Data, and IPv4 using minimum thresholds. Defaults are 0, meaning notifications trigger for any activity above 0. Combine conditions to customize alerts. Default percent off is 50%, and max $ is 100.
Settings are saved automatically. Use the Notifications/Dismiss button to show or hide notifications as needed.

F.A.Q. & Offer Details
Frequently Asked Questions: Please note, if any ticket is created regarding these questions, it may be closed without a response. or subject to a fee. Questions on the left in are regarding the flash sale, and on the right in are regarding general service questions. You can also click to learn more.
What's the countdown to Black Friday sale?
This is your chance to participate early as we refine the system in preparation for Black Friday 2024. We will be running deals (almost) throughout the year. We highly recommend if you decide to make an early purchase (or don't) that you leave feedback and suggestions for us on LowEndSpirit to make improvements. These deals rotate out slower than usual, so you can get some sleep.
How do notifications work?
Grant permissions to browser to enable notifications, otherwise decline to disable. You can adjust settings to any combination of requirements before notification appears, so leaving it "ANY" location with "0" on all fields activates a notification any time there is any new offer. And if you put "2" for CPU, it will notify any plans at least 2 CPU, and so on.
When will my service activate? Should I make a ticket?
Usually about 30 minutes after purchase, but it's possible that it may take longer if it runs into issues and needs manual activation. Please do not contact us regarding order activation unless you are absolutely sure something has gone wrong. If we are contacted, we reserve the right to cancel/refund or activate your order (our choice.)
Are refunds available?
No, not for this offer, but also see above for refunds before activation.
How do I pay with PayPal or Crypto?
You must use the deposit feature to add at least $20 at a time, before purchase, and use store credits to purchase. Please note, store credits are non-refundable.
Can I change locations or specifications?
No, not for this offer. These flash deals are specific to each physical server. It's possible we may in some cases offer migrations, in which case it will become available to you as a button on your service details page. Do not manually contact us.
Can I transfer the service to another customer?
We will only guarantee transferability of the service if the optional +$5/YR addon for "AUP & Transferability" is added to your service. Please note, service transfers still carry an additional one-time fee if requested. We may still allow you to transfer your service without this additional option purchased, at our own discretion, if we determine that you have been a trusted customer for some time. In this case, the transfer option will appear on the service cancellation page. If it does not appear, and you did not purchase the mentioned addon, you are not eligible.
What if the price changes for an active offer?
If you already made a purchase, you locked it in at the price paid, regardless of whether it increases or decreases. We cannot fulfill requests to lower pricing if a price for an offer goes down during the duration.
Why can I not make a purchase?
Certain customers may be locked out of making a purchase within the first 30 minutes of each offer. If this occurs, you can try making a purchase after this lock-out period.
What if I get the wrong plan?
For flash sales, the plan you get is as-is. Make sure not to complete the checkout or payment if the pricing changes or is unexpected. Complete your purchase immediately to avoid any chances of getting the next offer or the price changing.
What's the fair share for this offer?
For specials, our AUP permits 33% average CPU instead of the usual 50% but memory and disk space are guaranteed as long as you are not also breaking other parts of our AUP/terms of service. Read our terms of service for more specific details.
Custom ISO? Port 25? 80? 443? PTR?
These plans are sold as "KVM Lite" and do not have guaranteed access to custom ISO, rDNS requests, or to port 25/443/80. However, we do not currently have any restrictions and if the feature is available on your end, it may be used.
Are there bandwidth restrictions?
We do not restrict your network, however, if you break our AUP, we reserve the right to reduce your port speed as a less severe action versus suspension. If restricted, you would still be able to physically utilize up to the advertised amount per month and we would never restrict it to make it impossible for the total monthly data to be used.
What level of support do I receive? How much is support?
Flash specials come with a limited support level. We expect you to refer to our knowledgebase, pay attention to network status updates, and resolve any issues that are capable of being resolved without contacting us. Otherwise, each support request is billed at $15 per request, although this is generally not forced as long as you do not create continuous/excessive tickets.
Is the server hardware guaranteed?
It's possible that in the future, your service may change to different hardware. While in the past we've always attempted to make sure it's an upgrade, it is possible that you could be moved to a server with lower clockrate, lower memory speed, or lower disk speed, if it means better stability (for example, Epyc instead of Ryzen.)
What are premium options and how do they work?
These are ways to customize your special. They are only offered during initial purchase and cannot be modified or cancelled in the future.
5-Year Price Lock - For a $10 optional one-time price, we will absolutely guarantee that the renewal price of your service will remain the same for five years. If this isn't purchased, it doesn't mean the price will change, but this for an absolute guarantee.
AUP & Transferability - With this $5/YR recurring option, increase CPU allowance to our normal limit. In addition, we will be more lenient on unintended cases of abuse that result in service suspension. This allows service transfer purchases.
IP Change Tool - Lock this in at a low $10 one-time price, allowing you to request an automatic random IPv4 change as available for your service.
Support & Changes - For $10/YR, if you are uncomfortable with having limited support, you can receive our standard level of support. No fees for making standard requests, and also gain access to additional service modifications/request buttons.
Do you offer IPv6?
Right now IPv6 is not officially supported. It's possible your service in certain locations may activate with IPv6 but it comes with no warranty and may not function
Can I have multiple accounts?
Only if you have the "extra" support level. Otherwise per our terms of service, we do not permit multiple accounts per user/household.
Can I sell/give my account away?
No, you are the owner, and any attempt to give you user information to another person or another person accessing your account can either be seen as having multiple accounts or your account being compromised.
Will my IPv4 stay the same?
It's possible your address may change in the future as it is not from IP space we own. You may optionally purchase a permanent IP address that does not change for $50.
Do you guarantee geolocation?
No, IP geolocation by third parties is not within our direct control. If you contact us and let us know exactly which direct IP geolocation service needs an update, and they have a process in place where we can quickly contact them for a correction, we'll make our best effort.
When does the plan renew?
For annual services, the next due invoice is generated 30~ days before the end of your term. If you have a payment method on file that supports recurring billing and it's enabled, it takes place 3 days before the end date for your term.
Is the price recurring?
We do not intend on changing pricing and have not done so in many years. However, if it does occur, we would give you plenty of advanced notice and there's no obligation to renew.
Will the location remain the same?
If necessary, your service may be moved to the nearest available location. It is possible that we may close a location, in which case we'd attempt to accommodate you if you are unhappy with the change, although this is not guaranteed.
When does bandwidth reset?
Even for annual services, bandwidth level resets at the 1st of each month at this time. Bandwidth is measured in both direction.
How do I cancel my service?
You must cancel your service at least 7 days in advance to ensure it can go through and allow time for any delays or issues to be resolved with any of our systems. You may cancel your service easily using our self-serve system (click "cancel" on the service details page & confirm.)
Can I cancel early?
If the service is sold, for example, on an annual term, then it is priced as such because you are reserving it for the entire duration. This means you cannot cancel early in the middle of your term. You can still request a cancellation any time, but it will not be effective until the service end date.
Can I dispute a payment?
Disputing payments for any reason will result in a returned payment fee being assessed and likely account closure. If there is an error, please contact us and have us resolve it, otherwise, there is a risk of service suspension.
Can I upgrade in the future?
We only allow upgrades to standard plans. This is generally not desired for specials as standard pricing may be much more expensive.
