See it in action
Feels like WHMCS
The admin area is laid out just like WHMCS — clients, orders, billing, support, and settings where you'd expect them. Your staff won't need retraining.
Your numbers up front
Daily, monthly, and total income right on the dashboard, with a 30-day chart so you can see how the business is doing at a glance.
Know what needs attention
Pending orders, open tickets, cancellations, and provisioning jobs are counted right on the front page, so nothing gets missed.
Housekeeping, done for you
Backups, nightly cron runs, and SSL renewals are tracked in a simple checklist — you can see everything that ran and when.
Complete client record
Contact details, account status, signup history, and internal notes stay together in one staff workspace.
Billing at a glance
Paid, unpaid, refunded, credit, revenue, and outstanding balances are visible without leaving the profile.
Actions in context
Create orders and invoices, manage credit, open tickets, impersonate safely, or update the account from one place.
Everything at the top
Clients see their services, domains, tickets, and unpaid invoices as soon as they log in, with links to act on each one.
Pay all in one click
One button pays every unpaid invoice at once — by card, PayPal, or account credit.
Active Products & VPS
A simple table of each service: the plan, the domain, the price, and when it renews. Upgrades and management are one click away.
Integrated Support Desk
Clients can open tickets, read the knowledgebase, and turn on two-factor login from the same portal.
Your brand, not ours
Put your own company name and logo on the login page. Your clients never see ours.
Two-factor login built in
Staff logins are protected with two-factor authentication (works with Google Authenticator), secure cookies, and brute-force protection.
Fast everywhere
KBilling is plain PHP — no frameworks, no Node, no bloat. It loads fast even on cheap shared hosting.
Roles for your team
Give each staff member only the access they need — full admin, support only, or view-only. Every action is logged.
What You Get
The day-to-day work of running a hosting business, handled automatically.
Works With WHMCS Modules
Uses the same API as WHMCS, so your existing modules and tools keep working after you switch.
Multi-Server & VPS Provisioning
Provision Virtualizor (KVM & OpenVZ), Proxmox VE, cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, and Hetzner Cloud in a single order action — server creation, welcome email, and invoice all in one click.
Full Client View
Open a customer and see everything — services, invoices, tickets, domains, and notes — on one page.
Anti-Fraud & EU VAT
Spot suspicious orders with built-in fraud rules, and charge the right VAT in the EU automatically.
Built-In Support Desk
A complete ticket system with canned replies and email piping — plus 10 support tickets to us every month.
Getting Started Is Simple
If your server can run PHP and MySQL, it can run KBilling.
Install
Upload the files, open the installer in your browser, and connect your database. Shared hosting, VPS, or dedicated — anything works.
Configure
Set up your payment gateways (Stripe, PayPal, Bank Transfer), connect server modules (cPanel, Plesk, Proxmox), and customize your products & pricing.
Go Live
That's it. From here KBilling invoices, provisions, and follows up on late payments on its own.
