2026 Price list

cPanel Solo Cloud: $29.99

cPanel Pro: $53.99
cPanel Premier: $69.99
cPanel Premier per account over 100: $0.49

crazy!

Like clockwork. They’re gonna keep on increasing pricing until the wheels fall off.

There are plenty of decent alternatives available, like Webuzo, DirectAdmin, etc., that don’t have crazy per-account pricing, so at this point if you’re still demanding cPanel as a control panel, you really have money to burn or are just plain stubborn.

Moving to any Cloud SAAS platform will be ideal since I feel other providers will also start jumping on pricing as cPanel increases price.

Yikes! I haven't seen the mention of cPanel Partner pricing yet.

Partners might have received the emails by now.

Not yet, or at least, not for our Partner account.

In any case, this [unfortunately] shouldn't be a surprise to anyone - it's an annual guarantee at this point.

We haven't yet had an email regarding partner pricing but looking at the retail pricing page it states the only license that is available to metal/dedicated users is the premier 100 account license. Has this always been the case for retail customers or is this a new thing?

Edit: Sorry, I'm being dumb. Just realized that the admin and pro licenses have never been available for metal/dedicated users even with partner pricing......need more coffee.

Email says

"This past year, we focused on the improvements that make your day-to-day operations smoother, safer, and more efficient, including:
Faster, more responsive cPanel & WHM: Enhanced backend and UI performance.


Built-in Server Monitoring (powered by 360 Monitoring): Included with every license, reducing complexity and cost.


Enhanced security and compliance through stronger SSL/TLS automation: Faster patching, and seamless integration with CloudLinux/AlmaLinux.

"


Built-in Server Monitoring (powered by 360 Monitoring): Included with every license, -- none of my partner licenses have this included in price. Is this another goof up?

Just got the partner pricing through, changes are as follows:

Solo: +$2
Admin: +$1.25
Pro: +$4.75
Plus: +2.75
Premier: +$2.50
Each account over 100: +$0.05

It's hidden away the partner licensing PDF, but a bit of good news is that they appear to have increased the discounts available based on gross monthly revenue. If you are a certified partner with over $2,000 in cPanel license spend, your discount is going up from 6% to 16%. On the flip side, if your monthly license spend is less than $2,000 then you wont get any discount at all (it was previously 2%).

This is getting worse with every year, yet we don't get what we really need. Simple functions for domain management are missing. So many negative emotions every year this happens. Customers will have to pay for this and sadly this won't make customer life easier, won't make our life easier..

We keep getting features we never asked. We keep lacking features we asked for 10+ years.

The day company decides to quit using cPanel will be a very bright day.
