Payload CMS Hosting
Self-Hosted, Fully Managed
Run Payload CMS on dedicated containers with managed PostgreSQL, automatic backups, and enterprise security. Fixed monthly pricing — no per-request charges, no vendor lock-in.
Why Payload on G7Cloud?
The perfect environment for modern headless content management.
True Self-Hosting
Own your data and your CMS. Unlike Contentful or Sanity, Payload runs on YOUR infrastructure with no API rate limits or vendor lock-in.
Managed Database Included
PostgreSQL runs locally in your cluster with zero latency. No remote database charges, no per-query billing, unlimited operations.
Fixed Pricing, Unlimited Content
Pay for dedicated resources, not API calls or content entries. Create unlimited collections, fields, and content — your bill stays the same.
