Running a hosting business comes with many moving parts, managing clients, billing, domains, and support tickets all at once. We want to help individuals who use cloud or dedicated hosting for reselling services work smarter, grow faster, and deliver outstanding service. That's why we're excited to introduce WHMCS (Web Host Manager Complete Solution) as part of our hosting ecosystem.

If you want to take your hosting business to the next level, you'll be pleased to know that you can now use this powerful automation platform, packed with industry-leading tools and easy-to-use management features.

What is WHMCS, exactly?

WHMCS is the world’s leading client management, billing, and support automation system built specifically for hosting businesses.

With WHMCS, you can manage a variety of tasks, including:

• Client onboarding
• Automatic service provisioning
• Invoicing and payments
• Domain management
• Support ticketing
• Client notifications

All of this is available from a single, professional dashboard. It streamlines your day-to-day operations so you can spend less time on admin and more time growing your business.

What WHMCS means for Afrihost clients

You can register, renew, and update domain details directly through WHMCS. Please note: Afrihost cannot renew or update domains on your behalf once they are managed via WHMCS, as all domain administration is handled through the platform.
