Hosting providers in Mozambique: what to compare before deciding

Mozambique has few hosting providers, and almost all of them say the same thing on the front page: fast, secure, with support. That does not help you decide. What helps is knowing which questions to ask — and we answer them here too.

The eight points that decide it

1 What currency do they charge in? Some Mozambican providers show prices in dollars. Not a flaw, but it means the final amount depends on the day's rate and your card's fees.
2 Do they register .mz domains? Not all do. If they do not, you end up with hosting in one place and the domain in another.
3 Which panel do they use? cPanel and Plesk are market standards and make leaving easier later. A proprietary panel locks you in more.
4 How do backups work? "We have backups" is not enough: how often, kept for how long, and is restoring free?
5 Where do you ask for help, and at what hours? A WhatsApp that answers at 9pm beats a form that answers in three days.
6 What limits does the plan have? "Unlimited" never is. Ask about CPU and process limits — those are what make a site fail at peak times.
7 Who migrates your current site? And does it cost?
8 What is the renewal price? Not the first year. The second is the one you pay for a long time.

What each one publishes today

We looked at the public pages of the main Mozambican providers. This is what each one advertised on the date we checked — and only that; we did not test their services.

1 MozServer — advertises cPanel and also Plesk, free SSL, backups, .mz and .ao domains, VPS and reseller plans, 24/7 support and WhatsApp. Prices shown in meticais.
2 TurboHost — uses the DirectAdmin panel and advertises LiteSpeed, free SSL, 24/7, VPS and reseller. Prices show in dollars by default, although the site offers metical and kwanza.
3 Registar (registar.co.mz) — advertises LiteSpeed, daily backups, SSL and .mz domains, with prices in meticais and dollars. Note: it uses mozdomains.com nameservers, suggesting the same house behind two brands.
4 MozOut — cPanel, free SSL, backups every night before dawn kept for a year, .mz domains registered with CIUEM and transferred free, invoices in meticais and support in Portuguese: WhatsApp, ticket and e-mail 24 hours, phone from 08:00 to 16:00.

Checked on each provider’s public pages in August 2026. They may have changed since — confirm before deciding.

What a table cannot compare

Two things decide the experience and appear nowhere: how long they take to answer when the site is down, and what happens when the problem is hard. Before buying, send a technical question to each provider's support and see how long it takes and how good the answer is. It is the cheapest test you can run.

Changing provider is not a drama. If you are somewhere and unhappy, migration happens without the site going offline and transferring a .mz costs nothing — see how to transfer a domain .
