What happens next
1
Choose the provider-owned launch path or generate an API command from the homepage.

Create the VPS in your account. Any API key stays local to your machine.
3
Finish setup in the VPN admin UI or native client. VPNInstant never becomes the tunnel.
Why it belongs in VPNInstant
Support it as the bigger open-source lane for users who need structured WireGuard networking.
Trust and billing shape
VPNInstant should present it as a serious self-hosted platform rather than a beginner default.
Operationally heavier than wg-easy, but more capable for multi-node networking.
Setup highlights
- Centralized management for WireGuard networks.
- Better fit for multi-node private networking than simple server installers.
- Useful comparison point against NetBird and Headscale.
Caveats
- Not the easiest first experience for non-technical users.
- Broader network tooling than what a casual travel user usually needs.
Later automation
VPNInstant could treat Netmaker as the advanced open-source upgrade path once users outgrow simpler tools.
