A server for Telegram and Discord bots

1,975 servers from 53 providers, from €3.06 a month. Prices checked 12 hours ago

A Telegram or Discord bot is a small program that has to stay online: when your laptop sleeps, the bot stops answering. A VPS keeps it running day and night for the price of a coffee. Most bots, written with aiogram, python-telegram-bot, discord.js or discord.py, use well under a gigabyte of memory, so this list starts at 1 vCPU and 1 GB and ranks plans by the monthly bill, with the IPv4 address and renewal prices included.

Lowest bill
€3.06(The lowest bill with every charge known. Rows priced lower leave out a charge their provider doesn’t publish.)
Typical hidden fees
+€25.25/mo(31% of these servers cost more than their price tag once the required fees are added (IPv4, setup, traffic, minimum term). On those, the extra is typically €25.25 a month. The list is always sorted by the full bill.)

Some links may earn ServerDiff a commission. It never changes the order, which is the bill under the assumptions shown. How we rank

When to choose more: a bot that only answers commands runs on the smallest plan for years. Raise the memory filter to 2 GB if the bot keeps a database such as Postgres on the same server, serves thousands of users, plays music in Discord voice channels or calls a headless browser. Several bots fit on one server; run each in its own Docker container or systemd service so a crash in one does not stop the others.

Polling or webhooks: with long polling, the bot asks Telegram or Discord for new messages and needs no public address at all, so an IPv6-only plan, often the cheapest, works fine. Telegram webhooks need a public HTTPS address; keep the IPv4 address on if you use them. Turn off Public IPv4 in the settings above to see the IPv6-only bills.

What the price tag hides: the smallest plans are where an IPv4 fee or a renewal price weighs most, sometimes doubling the bill after the first term. This list compares the average monthly bill over the period you choose, so a cheap first month does not win on its own.
