Why choose AFRICLOUD for Kenya?

AFRICLOUD serves Kenyan businesses from our Johannesburg data centre, peered at NAP Africa, the continent's largest internet exchange. Our measured best-case latency from Johannesburg to Nairobi is around 51 ms, among the lowest you will find to Kenya from a major regional facility. Every plan includes enterprise NVMe storage, AMD EPYC processors and full root access, with payment by card, PayPal or 300+ cryptocurrencies.

AFRICLOUD serves Kenyan businesses from our Johannesburg data centre, peered directly at NAP Africa, the largest internet exchange on the continent, with 580+ networks exchanging traffic on site. Our measured best-case latency from Johannesburg to Nairobi is around 51 ms, among the lowest you will find to Kenya from a major regional facility, and it stays consistent across Mombasa, Eldoret, Kisumu, Nakuru and Thika.

Johannesburg is geographically the closest of our data centres to East Africa, and its peering at NAP Africa gives Kenyan traffic short, well-connected paths. Every plan from VM1 to VM8 ships with enterprise NVMe storage, AMD EPYC processors and full root access, and deploys automatically in under two minutes once payment is confirmed. You can verify the latency from your own network before you order using our public Looking Glass.

Our Kenyan customers typically run e-commerce storefronts serving domestic and East African shoppers, fintech and payment-adjacent back-ends, SaaS platforms for the East African Community, and the web and application hosting that agencies and developers rely on. Every server includes both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, full root and console control, and DDoS mitigation passed through from our upstream transit at no additional cost.

We bill in USD and you choose the rail that suits you: international Visa and Mastercard, PayPal, or more than 300 cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT and Monero. Around a quarter of all AFRICLOUD orders settle in cryptocurrency, a practical option for businesses that prefer not to use a card for recurring international billing. See crypto payment options or compare all VM1 to VM8 plans.
