Vultr is a global cloud provider, and its plan catalogue is broad enough that the hardest part is usually picking the right family rather than finding a cheap option. This page tracks 61 current plans across 9 families and 20 countries, with prices pulled from Vultr's public plans API.
The cheapest paid plan in the table starts at $2.50/mo; the most expensive row is $4,491.65/mo because the Cloud GPU plans sit in a different budget class. There is also 1 free-tier row. If you are comparing Vultr VPS, the table is the fastest way to see which family and location fit your budget.

The table mixes 9 plan families. Shared and general-purpose plans cover most sites; high-frequency and high-performance families cost more but target faster CPU workloads; dedicated CPU and high-memory families reserve resources; GPU plans sit in a separate budget class.
Vultr cloud hosting vs a single VPS
Vultr is often described as cloud hosting because the same account can run one instance or a fleet. A single VPS is the simplest entry point: you pick one plan, one location and one operating system, and the monthly rate is predictable. A multi-instance cloud setup adds private networking, load balancing and separate databases, but it also adds cost and operational work. Start with one instance if you are migrating a small site; add services only when the workload actually needs them. The same catalogue supports both approaches, which is why the table keeps the plan families together.
What Vultr VPS costs
All prices in the table are monthly on-demand rates. Vultr also bills hourly, so a plan that is too expensive for a full month can still make sense for short tests. The monthly column is the number to use when you compare against annual-billing providers, because it keeps the billing period consistent.
For buyers comparing Vultr Pricing, the sortable headers make the trade-offs visible: CPU allocation, RAM, disk size and monthly cost without opening every product page.
Vultr locations and availability
Plan availability is not uniform. Vultr lists data centers across 20 countries in this dataset, including United States, India, United Kingdom, Australia, Japan. A plan seen in one country may be absent or priced differently in another, which is why the same plan can appear with a different location label in the table.
If you already know the region you need, start from the location page rather than the full vendor table: the United States, Japan and Singapore pages filter the same plans to those markets and explain the city-level differences.
Which Vultr plan should you choose?
- Small projects and testing: start with the smallest shared or general-purpose plan. A 1 vCPU / 1 GB plan is enough for a small site, cron jobs or a VPN endpoint.
- Production websites and APIs: look at high-performance or dedicated CPU plans once traffic and background jobs share the same box.
- Latency-sensitive workloads: choose the location first, then the plan. Paying for more CPU does not fix a distant data center.
- AI and rendering: GPU rows are a separate budget class. Compare GPU memory and GPU count before comparing vCPU counts.
