    Included at no extra cost. Hover or tap a feature for details.

    Trading & access

    6 included
    • Run trading platforms compatible with your chosen Windows or Linux system. Platform licenses and market-data subscriptions are separate, and available CPU and RAM determine how much you can run at once.
    • No plan-imposed limit on exchange connections through your trading software. Exchange permissions, data subscriptions, platform limits, and available server resources still apply.
    • No plan-imposed cap on API connections for your trading tools. Broker and API rate limits, account permissions, and available server resources still apply.
    • Run AI agents, compatible runtimes, and your own MCP servers on your VPS. These workloads use your plan’s included CPU, memory, and storage; connect your own APIs and tools.
    • Administrator access on Windows or root access on Linux lets you install compatible platforms, indicators, and tools, and manage your server settings.
    • Run compatible trade copiers such as Replikanto. Software licenses are separate, and the number of accounts you can copy depends on your software and server resources.

    Network & protection

    5 included
    • New York is this page's default location; you can choose another on the plan card. Actual latency depends on your broker, data feed, and network route; the latency row shows the estimate for the selected location.
    • Your server has its own IP address for remote access and connecting trading tools. You can use it with services that support IP allowlisting.
    • Always-on DDoS (distributed denial-of-service) protection with advanced traffic filtering, plus firewalls and intrusion detection.
    • Server protection complements network DDoS filtering. You should still keep your operating system and trading software updated and protect your account credentials; no protection eliminates every security risk.
    • Every plan includes unmetered bandwidth.
    How we protect your server

    Support & reliability

    6 included
    • Get help around the clock from a US-based team familiar with trading platforms, data feeds, and VPS troubleshooting.
    • Our support team can help you move your trading environment from another server. Contact us to coordinate the move and check any platform-specific requirements.
    • Get assistance connecting to your server and setting up your trading environment. Provisioning time is shown separately for each plan.
    • Our Network Operations Center monitors every server, network path, and datacenter 24x7x365 with a 15-minute first-reply target for critical issues. Average first response under 10 minutes.
    • QuantVPS Detect+ is included with every plan at no extra cost. It monitors NinjaTrader 8 and other trading platforms, and data feed and broker connections (for example Rithmic, CQG, Tradovate and IBKR), and alerts by email and in the dashboard.
    • Our industry-leading 99.999% uptime guarantee SLA gives a service credit for any covered outage of a minute or more, under the SLA terms. It covers service availability, not broker, exchange, or trading-platform availability.

    Flexible plans

    3 included
    • There is no one-time server setup charge. Your selected plan, billing period, and any optional add-ons determine the price shown at checkout.
    • Upgrade from your dashboard as your trading workload grows. To move to a smaller plan, contact support. Available configurations and billing adjustments depend on the change.
    • Cancel your subscription at any time with no hidden fees.

How It Works

A Polygon.io VPS built for always-on charts, strategies, algos and faster execution.

Run Polygon.io on a VPS in New York. Access your trading workspace through Remote Desktop while your platform runs near NASDAQ. Follow the same three steps, with resources and connectivity selected for your trading setup.

  1. Secure remote accessWindows, Mac, iPhone, iPad or Android

    Your trading computer. In the cloud.

    Connect and control your trading strategies from any device, anywhere in the world, through secure remote desktop, while execution remains on QuantVPS.

    • Global Access
    • Remote Desktop
    • 24/7 Uptime

    Workflow stage

    The complete workflow behind this stage

    Connect to the Windows workspace through Remote Desktop from a supported desktop or mobile device. The platform and strategies keep running on the server when the local device disconnects.

  2. Continuous operationWindows Server or Ubuntu 24.04

    Run Polygon.io on New York infrastructure. Built for continuous trading.

    Host bots, algorithms, and critical software on the QuantVPS Edge in New York, configured for continuous low-latency operation.

    • High Performance
    • New York Datacenter
    • Trading Optimized

    Workflow stage

    The complete workflow behind this stage

    Run automated platforms and related software on a server located in New York. Select the CPU, memory, and storage tier around the processes, charts, and historical work the setup performs. The firewall, network configuration, and security come optimized for trading performance.

  3. 0-2ms network latencyNew York → NASDAQ

    Execute through a direct NASDAQ path. Fewer hops, less slippage.

    Send orders over a direct, low-latency connection to NASDAQ in 0-2ms, reducing network hops and slippage. The server remains available independently of the local computer and internet connection.

    • Low Latency
    • Fewer Hops
    • Reduced Slippage

    Workflow stage

    The complete workflow behind this stage

    Place the workspace near NASDAQ when that route matters to the strategy. The published 0-2ms figure measures network latency; fills and slippage still depend on the broker, venue, order type, and market conditions. How we measure latency.

Run Polygon.io data clients on a VPS

  1. Connect to the server

    Choose an OS supported by your client: use RDP for a Windows VPS or SSH for Linux, then install the required runtime and dependencies.

  2. Configure your data API client

    Install a compatible library and securely configure the current endpoint and API credentials for your account.

  3. Validate subscriptions and ingestion

    Test the market channels and historical queries allowed by your plan, including reconnects, pagination, and storage limits.

  4. Supervise the running service

    Run the client under a service manager, monitor logs and positions, and handle reconnects and API limits. Test restart recovery before leaving it unattended.

What is a VPS for Polygon.io?

A Polygon.io VPS runs your market-data API clients, WebSocket consumers, and analysis jobs on a remote server. The data service itself is not installed on the VPS. Your account plan determines available markets, endpoints, and entitlements independently of hosting.

Choosing the best VPS for Polygon.io

Plan for the number of stream subscriptions, message volume, and historical records you retain. Confirm the current endpoint and client requirements for your account. VPS capacity does not increase API quotas or change market-data licensing and redistribution rules.

Built for Polygon.io

Optimized for Polygon.io.

Your Polygon.io VPS stays online from pre-market to after-hours, hosted in New York on a typical 0–2 ms route to the feed.

Questions & Answers

Polygon.io VPS FAQ.

Polygon.io questions, answered
Sound familiar?5 common ones

Ever missed a setup because you were away from your desk?

Market data keeps flowing and your strategies keep running.

If any of these sound familiar, a trading VPS is the fix.

Install a compatible client and runtime, configure your own API credentials, and select the endpoints included in your subscription. The VPS hosts ingestion and analysis code rather than providing the data entitlement itself.

Do not treat a data subscription as an execution service. If your strategy trades, connect a separately authorized broker API and reconcile its instrument identifiers and market sessions with the data source.

Follow the limits of your account and selected endpoints, back off after throttling, and restore subscriptions after disconnects. More server resources do not increase the data provider’s subscription allowance.

Yes, with careful timestamp, adjustment, session, and symbol handling. Validate how each endpoint represents the data rather than assuming historical bars and live events can be merged without normalization.

A full-market recorder has a different workload from a few-symbol collector. Estimate event rate, parsing, storage, and retention, then measure peak use around the US open before expanding subscriptions.

No. Real-time versus delayed access and redistribution rights come from the data provider and exchange agreements. A VPS cannot unlock datasets or permissions outside your subscription.
