Quick answer
What is the cheapest VPS in Hong Kong, Singapore or Tokyo?
On 2 November 2026, the cheapest comparable VPS from a crypto host that asks for no ID was VSYS Host's 1 vCPU / 1 GB / 20 GB plan in Singapore at $5.00 a month with 1 TB, then WebHorizon in Tokyo at $6.00 and is*hosting in Hong Kong at $6.99. The ranking comes from the Lacquerbay survey of 35 hosts. Vultr and Linode also list $5.00 in Singapore and Tokyo, without the crypto-and-no-ID condition.
What is the cheapest VPS in each city, size by size?
Singapore has the least expensive plan at three of the four sizes, and Tokyo at 1 vCPU / 2 GB. Each row gives the first and second plan among crypto hosts that ask for no ID, under one set of rules: an IPv4 address included, payable month to month, shown in stock, at least 1 TB a month on a port of 100 Mbit/s or more, and no China-optimised route.

How much more does the same VPS cost in Hong Kong or Tokyo than in Singapore?
According to Lacquerbay's survey of 2 November 2026, the first-ranked 1 vCPU / 1 GB VPS cost 40% more in Hong Kong ($6.99) than in Singapore ($5.00), and 20% more in Tokyo ($6.00).
- At 4 vCPU / 8 GB, Hong Kong and Tokyo were more than twice Singapore's price: $39.99 at 1Gbits in both cities, against $18.00 at VSYS Host in Singapore.
- Tokyo is the exception at 2 GB: its first-ranked plan carries 3 GB of RAM for $6.00, under Singapore's $7.00 for 2 GB.
- Hong Kong has the fewest hosts at the top: 2 offered a comparable 4 vCPU / 8 GB plan there, against 5 in Singapore.
Which lower prices did not make the ranking, and why?
Each offer priced under the first-ranked plans failed at least one condition written on the host's own pages. The main ones on 2 November 2026:
- SurferCloud ULightHost, from $3.60 for 1 vCPU / 1 GB / 40 GB in all three cities: 200 GB of traffic on a 30 Mbit/s port.
- Cherry Servers Cloud VPS, €3 (about $3.35) in Singapore and Tokyo: shown out of stock, and section 3.3 of its terms asks a new client paying in crypto for an identity check or a €100 top-up before its lowest-priced servers.
- GreenCloud Storage KVM, about $2.08 a month in Singapore and Tokyo: storage plans sold on yearly terms only.
- WebHorizon "Singapore", $3 and $6: its own knowledge base places these servers in Johor, Malaysia (how to check where a VPS is located).
- ExtraVM, $4.50 for 1 GB in Singapore and Tokyo: 15 GB of disk, under the 20 GB minimum.
- Evoxt, from $4.99 in Hong Kong (1 GB / 10 GB) and $5.99 in Tokyo: no IPv4 address stated on its site.
- HostHatch, 4 GB for $6 in Hong Kong: no public list of payment methods, so crypto could not be confirmed.
- Server.HK, from $5 in Hong Kong: ports of 2 to 14 Mbit/s.
- Amazon Lightsail, $3.50 and $5.00: IPv6-only bundles, and no crypto.
Is a mainstream cloud less expensive in Asia?
At 1 GB, Vultr and Akamai (Linode) match the first-ranked Singapore price at $5.00, and from 2 GB up the crypto hosts above cost less. Vultr charges $20.00 for 2 vCPU / 4 GB / 80 GB in Tokyo and Singapore, Linode and DigitalOcean $24.00, Hetzner $31.59 in Singapore. None of them is a crypto route without a card: Linode, Lightsail and Hetzner take no crypto, DigitalOcean's stablecoin option has limited access, and Vultr's billing FAQ asks for a card or PayPal to register.
Mainstream clouds at two sizes
| Cloud | Cities among the three | 1 vCPU / 1 GB | 2 vCPU / 4 GB |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vultr | Tokyo, Singapore | $5.00 (1 TB) | $20.00 (3 TB) |
| Akamai (Linode) | Tokyo, Singapore | $5.00 (1 TB) | $24.00 (4 TB) |

What should you check before buying a low-priced Asia VPS?
A low monthly price is only comparable once the stock, the location, the traffic and the ID rules are read.
- Stock: GreenCloud's EPYC VDS plans, first in Hong Kong at 1 vCPU / 2 GB and 2 vCPU / 4 GB, showed 1 to 5 units available per location.
- Location: HostDare's store says Tokyo while its FAQ says Osaka; WebHorizon's "Singapore" is in Johor; how can I check where a VPS is located?
- Traffic: most entry plans include 1 TB a month; see Which VPS in Singapore, Hong Kong or Japan has unmetered or unlimited bandwidth? for each quota and port.
- ID on a trigger: no host in the ranking asks for ID at signup, but is*hosting checks some accounts by risk score, and MonoVM and 1Gbits write ID checks into their refund terms. Which Asia VPS hosts ask no ID, and when do they ask anyway? lists each trigger with its source.
