Frequently Asked Questions
What is reseller hosting?
Reseller hosting lets you purchase hosting resources (storage, bandwidth) from Route Africa and resell them to your own clients under your brand. You get WHM to manage client accounts, and each client gets their own cPanel. From Starter Lite onwards, you also get free WHMCS billing, Domain Reseller, and RaPESA payment gateway.
Is WHMCS billing included free?
Yes, from LRH-Starter Lite (Check current pricing) onwards. LRH-Starter (Check current pricing) does not include WHMCS β it's designed for resellers managing a few clients manually through WHM.
What billing cycles are available?
Monthly, Quarterly, Semi-Annually, and Annually. All billing cycles are available at checkout. Monthly gives maximum flexibility with no long-term commitment.
Do all plans support Node.js and Python?
Yes. Every reseller plan includes Node.js, Python, PHP 8.x, SSH access, Git, WP-CLI, and Terminal access. Your clients get the full developer stack through their cPanel accounts.
What is RaPESA Payment Gateway?
RaPESA is Route Africa's payment gateway for WHMCS. It lets your clients pay via mobile money (M-Pesa, MTN MoMo, Airtel Money) directly from your WHMCS checkout. Pre-configured and free on all plans.
How many clients can I host?
All plans include unlimited cPanel accounts. Storage is the constraint: Starter (15GB) supports ~5-10 small sites, Standard (100GB) supports 30-50+, Business (300GB) handles 100+ comfortably. Upgrade anytime β no migration.
