What is VAT?
VAT (Value Added Tax) is a tax on consumption within the EU.
Our prices are inclusive of VAT and the rate depends on the EU state you are from. You will be charged VAT at your local country’s rate. VAT is itemised separately on your invoice. We have not raised our prices since registering for VAT giving you excellent value for money.
Who gets charged VAT?
Anyone with an address in the EU will be charged VAT at the rate of their country as per the new VAT law that was put in as of the 1st January 2015 as can be seen on HMRC’s website https://www.gov.uk/vat-on-digital-services-in-the-eu
If you are outside of the EU, the price will stay the same as we haven’t increased our prices to reflect VAT. Your invoice will show 0% VAT as you have not been charged VAT on your service.
If you are in the EU and have a valid VAT number please submit a billing ticket and provide your VAT number so we can remove the VAT from your invoice.
Do you charge VAT to UK clients?
No, we do not charge VAT to UK consumers or businesses.
What is your VAT number?
Our VAT number for European sales is EU372014432

These are the only limits we have in place. Also, for Resellers, the limits are per subaccount not the whole Reseller account i.e resources are not shared between all cPanel accounts hosted under the Reseller, rather the resources can be used for each cPanel account (better!).
These are some of the reasons why our WordPress Hosting, Web Hosting and Reseller Hosting plans are much faster compared to our competitors.
Memory allocation was doubled at no extra cost to the customer on 22/04/2021.
Disk I/O limits (speed and IOPS) was changed to “None” on 25/11/2021

JetBackup is the most popular backup software used to backup cPanel servers due to the software being more advanced than the default backup system included with cPanel itself.
We use JetBackup to back up our servers for extra peace of mind.
JetBackup is an excellent software as it allows you to generate and download a copy of your site as it is right now by using the snapshot feature, as well as grants you access to the backups we’ve already taken. Usually, there is one restoration point per night, and we keep 7 to 31 restoration points at a time.
If you want to generate and/or download a full backup of your account or even partial backups of your account as it is right now you will want to do that via cPanel -> JetBackup -> Snapshots and click “Create new Snapshot”.
Please note: this will only work if your backup is no more than 5GB in filesize and is not using more than 200,000 inodes. Also, you can only have 1 Snapshot per account, and the Snapshots are deleted automatically after 3 days. If your backup is over that limit but would still like a copy of it, please create a ticket, and we will generate the backup for you.
There are numerous options with JetBackup such as Full Account Backups, File Backups and Database Backups to name a few. You may check the features in full at the official JetBackup website here https://docs.jetbackup.com/manual/cpanel/index.html
IMPORTANT: The JetBackup System is our disaster recovery platform, and while we let you use it, we do not guarantee that it will meet your needs or that it will be accessible at all times and under all circumstances. We offer JetBackup on a best-effort basis, and there will be occasions where maintenance or other problems result in the system being unavailable for end-user access.
A Domain’s Nameserver tells the domain where to point to. If you purchased a hosting plan from HostXNow.com, you should have received an account information email that tells you what nameservers to point your domain to.
Just visit your domain registrar, click on the domain, and change the nameservers. Each registrar has a different method so please read their FAQs on how to change NameServers. We have listed some of the most popular domain registers on our DNS Changes articles. You may also want to create your own Private Nameservers or Custom Nameservers.
If you haven’t received the email from HostXNow.com, it could be that your account has yet to be set up, or it has been delayed. You should also check your Spam/Junk mail folder.
If you do not receive a new hosting welcome email within an hour or so, please contact support for assistance.
The control panel we use is called Cpanel. A demo of Cpanel can be found here
If you are using the cPanel control panel on your old hosting account, then we can transfer all your websites, email accounts, your databases to our cPanel Linux Hosting respectively at no additional charge. If your old hosting account is cPanel based, then please follow our Account Migrations guide.
