Cloudways sells managed cloud hosting for WordPress, WooCommerce, Magento, Laravel and PHP apps, plus Node.js and AI-agent hosting, on DigitalOcean, Vultr, Linode, AWS or Google Cloud servers.
Its promo offers only kick in once you sign up and upgrade from the free trial to a full account, so the discount starts with your first paid months.
Cloudways splits its service into two products. Flexible lets customers pick the cloud provider and server size and run unlimited apps on each server, while Autonomous takes over WordPress hosting completely and scales on its own when traffic jumps. Plans are priced per month but billed by the hour for actual use, and new users can try the platform for three days without a credit card.
Newer additions include Velocity for Node.js apps, managed hosting for AI agents, and Cloudways Copilot, an AI tool in public preview that watches server components and suggests fixes. The company also offers client billing and reporting tools and a partner program for agencies, and its plans come with free migration, free SSL certificates and round-the-clock human support.

Cloudways shipping, returns and perks
What it sells
Managed hosting for WordPress, WooCommerce, Magento, Laravel, PHP, Node.js and AI-agent apps on DigitalOcean, Vultr, Linode, AWS or Google Cloud, with 24/7 support.
Hosting types
Flexible lets you choose the cloud and server size, while Autonomous is fully managed, autoscaling WordPress hosting.
Billing
Prices are shown in USD per month but charged hourly for what you use, pay-as-you-go with no contract or fixed amount.
Server sizes
Cloudways servers run from 2GB RAM and 1 vCPU up to 128GB RAM and 24 vCPU.
Free trial
A 3-day Cloudways trial lets you test a server without entering a credit card.
A Cloudways promo only applies after you sign up and upgrade from the trial to a full account, so use the 3-day trial first and add the discount when you go paid.
The sign-up offer on file is 30% off for 3 months on all plans.
Cloudways also advertises 40% off for 4 months with a promo-code sign-up, and its own pages disagree on the length.
Only one discount code can be applied per checkout, so pick the larger offer you qualify for.
If you're moving an existing site, request the free migration within your first four billing cycles, or that perk lapses.
