We started out as the people you called when the site went down.
KapsuleHost began in 2015 as a small web design company in New Zealand. We look after hosting for customers all over the world now, and we still build it the way we wanted it back then.
2015. We were building websites, not hosting them.
We built websites for small businesses in our own city. When one of them went down at nine at night, ours was the number that rang.
Sitting on hold
We would apologise, promise to find out what had happened, and then sit on hold with a host who would not tell us.
Written into the contract
We got tired of apologising for other people. So we built the host we had wanted to hand our clients to. The things that used to embarrass us are written into the contract now rather than onto a page, and they have not moved since.
The pattern never changed.2015
Nobody told the customer first.
Moving a site cost them a day and us a weekend.
The figure on the invoice in year two was never the figure on the page at signup.
So we built the host we had wanted to hand our clients to.
Four things we do, rather than four things we say.
01
The price you sign up at is the price you renew at, for as long as you stay on the plan.

01
Written Into the Terms
For as long as your plan keeps running. It is written into the terms of service, not just onto a page, so you can hold us to it.
02
The tools that move you in are free, on every plan.

Free Tools and Free Help
The migration tools bring your sites and your mail across from your current host and keep everything online the whole way. When a site needs a person, our team helps you move it, free. If you would rather one of our engineers did the whole move for you, with a supervised switch-over, that is a service with a published price (US$150.00, one-off), and on Concierge it is part of the monthly price.
03
One account, one panel, one bill.

All in KPanel
Sites, servers, domains, mailboxes and invoices sit together in KPanel, with the same tools whether you hold one site or fifty.

Anything we promise, you can check.

Numbered Clauses, Real Numbers
The promises on this site point at numbered clauses in the agreement, and the fair use limits are published as actual numbers.

Your work is yours, and we say so in the document that binds us.
We keep what running your services and billing you for them requires, and the policy sets out what that is and how long we hold it.
6.2Clause 6.2 of the privacy policy reads:We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information.
We do not sell, rent or trade personal information.
Your files and your mail are yours. We do not read them to advertise to you.
