Are you a web designer or tech entrepreneur looking for a steady stream of recurring income? In 2026, the demand for local, high-speed hosting in Kenya has never been higher.
At Asushost, we don’t just give you server space; we give you a complete business ecosystem. Our reseller packages are designed to remove every barrier to entry.
Why Asushost Reseller Plans are a “Business-in-a-Box”
Starting a hosting company used to require expensive software and domain costs. We’ve eliminated those overheads.
1. Free WHMCS License (Save KES 2,500+/Month)
WHMCS is the gold standard for hosting automation. With Asushost, you get a Free WHMCS license that handles:
-
Automatic Account Provisioning: When a client pays, their hosting is created instantly.
-
Billing & Invoicing: Professional PDF invoices sent to your clients automatically.
-
Support Ticket System: Manage your customer queries from one professional dashboard.
2. Free Domain to Kickstart Your Brand
A professional business needs a professional address. We include a Free Domain Name (like .co.ke or .com) with our reseller plans. This allows you to set up your storefront immediately without extra costs, ensuring your brand looks established from Day 1.
3. Local Payment Mastery: Free M-Pesa WHMCS Module
We understand the Kenyan market. Our plans include a Free M-Pesa Integration Module for WHMCS. Your clients can pay via Safaricom M-Pesa, and the system will automatically reconcile the payment and activate their service. No more manual “Lipa na M-Pesa” confirmations!
