Published 2026-08-30 · Updated 2026-09-08 · NulNet Editorial **Short answer** Create the invoice, scan the monero: URI, send the exact XMR once. A server-side watcher catches the payment; no ID enters the flow. NulNet: VPS from $3/mo and dedicated from $30.80/mo annual. The map spans twenty-one locations — Reykjavik (Iceland) and Zurich (Switzerland) among them, plus Singapore, Dubai, Cape Town and fourteen others. Signup is email plus a 12-character password, or token-only. No KYC. Checkout is crypto-only across BTC, XMR, ETH, BNB, SOL, LTC, TRX, XRP, DOGE, DASH, ADA, GRAM (TON), and USDT (TRC-20/ERC-20/BEP-20/SPL). No payload or guest traffic logs; connection metadata ≤24h.

Deploy at https://nulnet.com/deploy/. ## The short version Configure the box → pick **Monero (XMR)** on the payment step → the invoice prints an exact XMR figure with a monero: URI and QR → your wallet sends one transfer → a server-side watcher spots the payment on the chain and provisioning starts alone. There is no tx-hash form to fill, no screenshot to upload, and no human who needs to recognize your deposit. VPS from $3* (fund $50+), storage 1–5 TB NVMe from $24/mo annual-eff, dedicated with IPMI from $30.80/mo. Crypto invoice, no KYC.

Any location takes XMR at the same USD math — Iceland and Switzerland carry their published premiums on the USD side only. - Pick **Monero**. The invoice locks an exact XMR amount from the live rate for the payment window; the stored figure, not the ticker, is what must arrive. - Open any wallet — Official GUI, Monerujo, Cake, Feather — and either scan the QR or paste the address and amount. Send the **exact** figure in a single transaction from a wallet whose keys you hold. - Wait out the confirmations: the catalog lists 10 blocks for XMR with a 2–20 minute ETA. The status page updates itself; if you close the tab, reopening it restores the same invoice state. ## Why Monero instead of BTC XMR is private by construction: RingCT hides amounts and one-time addresses break the link between sender history and this invoice, so an observer learns that a payment landed — not your wallet's biography. Bitcoin publishes both, permanently, to anyone who types the address into an explorer. That is why the privacy-leaning default here is XMR; BTC and the four USDT networks ride the same invoice engine if your treasury prefers them, and the sixteen-coin picker never hides Monero behind a support ticket. ## Common mistakes - Withdrawing from a custodial exchange with a pooled outflow queue — the delay is the exchange's withdrawal batching, not Monero or the watcher. - Letting the wallet subtract its fee from the invoice amount. The printed figure must arrive intact; the fee belongs on top. - Slicing one invoice into several transfers to be safe. Detection waits for the full exact amount on the one-time address, so partial sends just stretch the wait. - Reusing a previous invoice address for a second order. Addresses are single-use; create a new invoice each time. Do I need a Monero account somewhere? No. Monero has no accounts and this checkout adds none — you push from a wallet whose seed you control to a one-time invoice address that exists for exactly one payment. How long does an XMR payment take end to end? The chain part is typically 2–20 minutes to 10 confirmations. Then a VPS images in about a minute; dedicated metal adds 2–4 hours of racking that no coin can shorten. Is KYC required for XMR payments? No. Signup is an email or token plus a 12-character password, the invoice carries no identity fields, and no wallet screening runs on the incoming transfer. What if I send the wrong amount? Stop before a second transfer. Open a ticket with the transaction ID: underpayments can be completed on the same invoice after review, while a fresh blind send to a single-use address just complicates the match. ## Related guides - [Minimum-data no-KYC checkout](https://nulnet.com/guides/anonymous-vps-crypto-no-kyc/) - [Buy a VPS with crypto](https://nulnet.com/buy-vps-with-crypto/) - [No-KYC VPS: requirements and limits](https://nulnet.com/no-kyc-vps/) - [Pay with Monero](https://nulnet.com/monero-vps/) - [Offshore VPS](https://nulnet.com/offshore-vps/) - [VPS vs dedicated bare-metal](https://nulnet.com/guides/vps-vs-dedicated/) - [Best no-KYC VPS 2026](https://nulnet.com/best-no-kyc-vps-2026/) - [FAQ: crypto VPS](https://nulnet.com/guides/faq-crypto-vps/) ## Checkout facts - **Price** VPS from $3/mo.
