Vultr Startup Program provides up to $100K in cloud credits for Series A and earlier startups — high-performance NVMe compute and bare metal across 32 global locations.
Vultr is an independent cloud provider with 32 data centre locations across six continents -- more geographic coverage than most startup credit programs offer. The Vultr Startup Program provides up to $100K in credits covering Cloud Compute (high-frequency, AMD, and Intel instances), Bare Metal, Managed Kubernetes, Block Storage, and Object Storage. Direct applications are accepted without partner or VC sponsorship. For startups that need global latency coverage -- particularly in regions underserved by AWS (Southeast Asia, South America, Africa) -- Vultr's footprint is a genuine differentiator.
Apply at vultr.com/programs/startup. Submit your company information and startup stage. Direct applications are reviewed and typically approved within a few business days. No accelerator or VC referral required.
Vultr Startup credits are best for startups with genuine global distribution requirements or teams that need bare metal access. The direct application makes it one of the most accessible $100K credit programs.
