Deploy · Uganda
For Uganda users, Johannesburg is the fastest of our three regions. Each region is fast to the market it serves, and every one runs the same plans at the same price, so you can deploy in one or run across all three from a single account.

Add LisbonEach figure is best-case measured latency from that region to a representative city in the market it serves. The city-by-city table below compares every region to every destination, or check any route on our Looking Glass. Real-world latency varies with your carrier and may be 10 to 30 percent higher. Compute, storage and pricing are identical in every region.
Best-case round-trip times from our regions, from our own continent-wide measurements. Real-world latency typically runs 10 to 30 per cent higher.

AFRICLOUD serves Ugandan businesses from our Johannesburg data centre, directly connected to NAP Africa, the continent's largest Internet Exchange Point. Our measured figures for Kampala are in the table on this page. Uniquely for Uganda, we support Mobile Money payments in Ugandan Shillings at checkout via your local mobile-money rail, so local businesses can fund their AFRICLOUD accounts without needing an international bank card.
AFRICLOUD serves Ugandan businesses from our Johannesburg data centre, directly peered at NAP Africa, the continent's largest Internet Exchange Point, with 580+ networks exchanging traffic on-site.Measured figures for Kampala, alongside Lisbon and Lagos for comparison, are in the table on this page. Uganda is landlocked, so international traffic reaches submarine cables via neighbouring countries; exact paths shift with upstream routing decisions, but the resulting connectivity is reliable enough for transaction-oriented workloads across every VM1–VM8 plan.
The standout feature for Ugandan customers is payment flexibility. Mobile Money is live for Uganda. You can top up your Atlas billing account in Ugandan Shillings directly at checkout via your local mobile-money rail, without needing an international bank card. This is genuinely unusual for international cloud infrastructure and removes one of the biggest friction points for Ugandan businesses buying compute abroad. For customers who prefer non-mobile rails, we also accept PayPal, major cards, and over 300 cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, Litecoin, and Monero. Learn how to buy VPS with Bitcoin on our crypto payments page. Roughly a quarter of all AFRICLOUD orders settle in cryptocurrency, mainstream on our platform.
Our Ugandan customers typically run fintech and mobile-money-adjacent backend services, e-commerce storefronts serving domestic and regional consumers, agribusiness and export-coordination tooling, and SaaS platforms for the East African Community. Kampala is our most-measured destination; we also serve customers in Entebbe, Jinja, Mbarara, Gulu, Mbale, Fort Portal, and other Ugandan cities, though our per-city measurement coverage for those is thinner. Use our Looking Glass to check live latency from your specific network to either data centre before you order.
For workloads that serve both Uganda and European audiences, our Lisbon data centre is available as a second region. This gives you geographic redundancy for backup and disaster-recovery scenarios, and an alternative path for European-facing traffic. For single-tenant dedicated servers (rather than self-service VPS), we handle those on a quote basis, contact us with your workload profile. VM1 through VM8 plans deploy within minutes after payment confirmation, automatic, no manual provisioning queue. Verify latency from your own network at our public Looking Glass before ordering.
