What an n8n VPS is for
Hosting n8n on your own VPS keeps your automations running 24/7 on a server you control: webhooks always have a public address, schedules fire on time and long workflows finish with your laptop closed. It suits anyone running business automations, AI agents or webhook integrations, and it installs in 1 click with the n8n One-Click app.
Always-on webhooks
Forms, payments and CRMs reach your workflows at any hour.
Scheduled jobs
Reports, syncs, backups and alerts that run on time.
AI agents
Workflows that call OpenAI, Anthropic or your own models.
Your data, your server
Workflows and credentials stay on the machine you control.
n8n VPS hosting on CubePath includes
- Full root access
- Dedicated IPv4 + IPv6
- NVMe storage
- DDoS protection
- Barcelona, Houston or Miami
- Hourly billing
Two ways to deploy n8n on VPS
gp.micro
The plan the n8n Marketplace app recommends: enough for n8n with PostgreSQL and webhook-driven workflows.
- 2 vCPU (AMD EPYC)
- 4 GB RAM
- 80 GB NVMe
- 5 TB of transfer per month
Both prices include the dedicated IPv4 ($1.50/mo), as on our pricing page. Billed per hour, with the monthly price as the cap.
Deploy n8nRunning queue mode with several workers? Move up to gp.starter (4 vCPU, 8 GB RAM, $16.71/mo). You can upgrade later from the panel.
n8n on a CubePath VPS vs n8n Cloud
Both run the same n8n. What changes is who runs the server, how executions are counted and where your data lives.
| n8n on a CubePath VPS | n8n Cloud | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $9.61/mo on gp.micro, billed per hour with a monthly cap | €20/mo (Starter) or €50/mo (Pro) |
| Executions | Unlimited: self-hosted n8n has no execution limit, only the server's CPU and RAM set the ceiling | 2,500 per month on Starter, 10,000 on Pro |
| Data control | Workflows, credentials and execution history stay on your server, in Barcelona, Houston or Miami | Stored on the infrastructure n8n manages for you |
| Server access | Full root: community nodes, npm modules, environment variables and the n8n version you choose | Managed instance, configured from the n8n interface |
| Updates and backups | Yours: you update n8n when you decide, and can turn on automatic server backups | Handled by n8n |
n8n Cloud prices according to n8n.io, November 2026.
n8n Cloud is the simple option if you would rather not look after a server. A VPS pays off when your execution volume grows, when you need to decide where the data is stored, or when you want to install your own nodes and libraries. You can also start on n8n Cloud and move later, since workflows export as JSON.

n8n VPS FAQ
What people ask before deploying n8n on a CubePath server.
Is self-hosted n8n free?
Yes. The self-hosted edition of n8n costs nothing to use: you only pay for the server it runs on. n8n is fair-code under the Sustainable Use License, and some enterprise features need a paid license from n8n. If you plan to offer n8n itself to others as a service, read the license first.
Is there a limit on executions?
No. Self-hosted n8n has no monthly execution limit and no per-execution fee. How many workflows you can run depends on the server's CPU and RAM: when you reach that ceiling, move to a bigger plan from the panel or add workers with queue mode.
Which plan do I need for n8n?
gp.micro (2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM) is the plan the n8n One-Click app recommends, and it runs one n8n instance with PostgreSQL and webhook workflows with room to spare. If you turn on queue mode with Redis and several workers, or run heavy AI workflows, move up to gp.starter. You can upgrade later from the panel. Every size is on the pricing page.
How do I install n8n on the VPS?
Choose the n8n app in the deploy form: the server is created with n8n installed on Debian and its password generated for you. If you prefer to install it yourself, deploy Ubuntu or Debian and follow the Docker Compose guide.
How do I use my own domain?
After deploying, create an A record in your DNS pointing at the server's IP, so your workflows and webhooks answer on your domain instead of a raw address. See what to do after deploying an app and how to add DNS records.
Can I use HTTPS on my own domain?
Yes. You can serve n8n on your own domain over HTTPS, which is what services calling your webhooks expect. Our 24/7 human support team can help you set it up: open a ticket.
How do I back up n8n?
On two levels. For the whole server, turn on automatic backups when you deploy (an extra 20% on the plan price) or take a snapshot before risky changes. Inside n8n, dump the PostgreSQL database and export your workflows as JSON with the n8n CLI, and keep a copy of N8N_ENCRYPTION_KEY: without it, restored credentials cannot be decrypted. The installation guide has the commands.
How do I update n8n?
Back up first: turn on automatic backups or take a snapshot of the server, so you can go back if something fails. Then follow our guide on how to update n8n to the latest version, which also covers rolling back.
How do I migrate from n8n Cloud to my VPS?
Deploy n8n on the VPS first. Then download your workflows from n8n Cloud as JSON files and bring them into the new instance with Import from File. Credentials do not travel with the workflows, so create them again on the new instance. Finally, update the webhook URLs in the services that call you, since they now point to your own domain. The installation guide covers the server side.
Can I pay by card?
Yes. You can pay by credit or debit card, and you can also add funds by crypto or PayPal. Servers are billed per hour with a monthly cap and no minimum term.
Which IP addresses does the server get?
Every VPS comes with a dedicated public IPv4, included in the monthly price shown ($1.50/mo), plus IPv6 addresses at no cost. That public IP is what n8n webhooks need: point a domain at it and services like Stripe or GitHub can reach your workflows. If you need more, each extra IPv4 is $3.00/mo.
Is DDoS protection included?
Yes. Every CubePath server has always-on, network-level DDoS mitigation at no extra cost. It matters for n8n because webhook URLs are public by design, and the protection keeps them reachable without an add-on to pay for.
Where are the data centers?
In Barcelona (Spain, EU), Houston and Miami (US). Pick the one closest to the APIs and users your workflows talk to. Barcelona keeps your data in the EU, which helps when your workflows process personal data under GDPR.
How do I stop paying for the server?
Destroy it. A server bills per hour for as long as it exists, including while it is stopped, and the charges end when you destroy it. Take a snapshot first if you may want it back later.
