App hosting
One-click Vaultwarden hosting in Noida with HTTPS, your own domain and a GST invoice, on NABHCLOUD's app hosting platform.
Vaultwarden is a lightweight server that speaks the same language as the Bitwarden apps. Your passwords stay on a server you control, while you log in through the official Bitwarden browser extensions and mobile apps.
Deployment needs the Starter plan or above. Current plans and prices are shown on this page, before GST. HTTPS, a custom domain and a GST invoice are included, and the server sits in our Noida data centre. View hosting plans
Once you start the install, Vaultwarden comes up on HTTPS and the admin-panel token is written to the Login Details section of your control panel. Open the web vault to register your account, then set the Bitwarden apps to point at that same app address under the self-hosted option.
Vaultwarden is a compact Rust application that implements the Bitwarden server API. It was formerly known as bitwarden_rs. Because the official Bitwarden extensions, desktop app and mobile apps all connect to this same API, nobody on your team needs to learn a new tool. Note that this is a community project, not built or supported by Bitwarden Inc., and it is released under the AGPL licence.
Everything it stores lives inside one data/ directory. That folder holds db.sqlite3, where vault entries sit encrypted on the client side so the server itself only ever sees ciphertext, along with file attachments, Send items, a cached icon set and the RSA key used to sign login tokens. If this folder is lost, the vault is lost with it, and no one, including NABHCLOUD, can reset a master password.
New account registration stays open until you turn it off. Create whichever accounts you need, then set SIGNUPS_ALLOWED=false, or bring in further users through an organisation invite instead. The /admin route itself will not respond until an ADMIN_TOKEN value exists; check Login Details on your app's page first, and if nothing is set, generate your own token (an Argon2 hash is the recommended format). Since WebAuthn and passkeys only work over HTTPS in the browser, and your app address already runs on HTTPS, this is covered automatically.
| Workload | Plan | Note |
|---|---|---|
| A household or a team of roughly ten people | Starter | Vaultwarden runs as one lightweight process, so the Starter plan is usually more than enough. |
| An organisation of a few hundred users sharing vaults | Starter | Starter still handles this comfortably. Keep an eye on disk space if attachments pile up. |
| The same server also hosts other apps, such as Gitea or Nextcloud | Pro | Upgrade so the other apps have headroom; Vaultwarden on its own would not need it. |
The Starter plan gives you 1 vCPU, 1 GB RAM and 20 GB of disk, with room for up to 2 apps, so Vaultwarden can run alongside your own code on one server. Billing is monthly, and prices shown exclude 18% GST.

Yes. Pick the self-hosted option inside the Bitwarden app and type your app's address in as the server URL.
The Bitwarden apps hold an encrypted local copy of your vault, so you can still view saved passwords even without a connection.
No. It recreates the Bitwarden server API and works with the genuine client apps, but Bitwarden Inc. has no part in supporting it. Certain paid Bitwarden features come free here, while some enterprise-only features are not available.
Back up the entire data/ folder, pulling db.sqlite3 out through the sqlite3 .backup command. Store the copy somewhere other than this same server, since a backup on the same disk is useless if that disk fails.
Select an app from the store, choose which app server to deploy it on, and click Install. It is assigned its own HTTPS address, any required passwords are generated and shown to you once, and the app is live within a couple of minutes.
