What is Ghostfolio?

Ghostfolio is open-source wealth management software. Upstream describes it as a way for busy people to keep track of stocks, ETFs or cryptocurrencies and make data-driven investment decisions. You record transactions across several accounts, then read portfolio performance, charts and a risk analysis from one dashboard. It is built for personal use and released under the AGPL-3.0 licence.

On xCloud it is Ghostfolio 3.92.0 from the official image, pinned by digest, with PostgreSQL 15 for your data and Redis 8 as a cache. Neither database is reachable from the internet. This is the unmodified open-source application: Ghostfolio Premium and broker connections are not part of it, and no market-data API keys or OpenID Connect sign-in are set up for you.

From Sign-Up to a Live Ghostfolio In Just 3 Easy Steps

Running Ghostfolio yourself means three containers, four secrets, a database volume, a domain and a certificate before you record one trade. Here you get the same stack without wiring any of it.

Step 01
Sign Up
Create your xCloud account and pick Ghostfolio from the OneClick catalog. Choose your domain and server. The install form asks for nothing else.
Step 02
We Deploy It For You
One click. We start the official Ghostfolio image, pinned by digest, with PostgreSQL 15 and Redis 8 on a private network. We mount ghostfolio_postgres_data, generate the database, Redis and token secrets, and publish the app over HTTPS.
Step 03
Claim The Admin Account
Open your HTTPS address straight away and choose Get Started. The first user to register becomes the administrator. Then add an account and record a first cash or asset activity by hand.

Everything Ghostfolio Does, On Your Own Server

You get the open-source Ghostfolio application unmodified, with its data in a database only your server can reach.

Transactions You Control
Create, update and delete each buy, sell or other activity yourself, so the record matches what you actually did.
Multi Account Management
Keep each broker, exchange or bank as its own account and still see one combined portfolio.
Portfolio Performance
See Return on Average Investment, dividends included, for today, the week, month or year to date, 1 year, 5 years or the full history.
Risk Analysis

Bring an existing transaction history in, and take your transactions out again whenever you want a copy.

Ghostfolio vs Alternatives

Ghostfolio Premium: Ghostfolio Premium is upstream's own paid cloud offering, which the project calls the easiest way to get started. Self-hosting runs the open-source application on a server you control instead.
A spreadsheet: Upstream lists "saying no to spreadsheets" among the reasons to use Ghostfolio. It calculates performance from the transactions you record, across all your accounts.
Sure: Sure has its own OneClick page. It is a personal finance manager covering transactions, budgets and net worth, while Ghostfolio concentrates on investment portfolios.
Firefly III: Firefly III has its own OneClick page. It is a double-entry manager for budgets, bills and reports. Ghostfolio tracks stocks, ETFs and cryptocurrencies instead.
Actual Budget: Actual Budget has its own OneClick page. It is an envelope budgeting app for day-to-day spending, where Ghostfolio follows what you have invested.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

Brian Geovanny

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.

Kevin Pineda

I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

How Cloud Nine Web Elevated Client Experience While Streamlining Hosting Operations using xCloud

Ed Ellingham

xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.

Dumitru Butucel

xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.

Waqar Ahmed

Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍

Rahul Singh

So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.

Massimo Villa

Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.

Gerson El

I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.

Tony Lewis

I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.

Jared McDowell

I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently

Kevin Heinrichs

I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.

Dan Spinoza

Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Rahil Maknojia

Came from runcloud. Tried xcloud and never came back.

xCloud gave me what no other hosting platform could: the flexibility of a VPS with the convenience of managed WordPress. As a solo founder running an entire business on one server, that combination is an important unfair advantage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

Can I run Ghostfolio in Docker?

Yes, and this template is Ghostfolio Docker hosting with the setup done. It runs the official Ghostfolio 3.92.0 image, PostgreSQL 15 and Redis 8, with a persistent database volume, generated secrets and HTTPS on your own domain.

How much RAM does Ghostfolio need?

The template baseline is 1024 MB of RAM, 1 CPU core and 5 GB of disk for a small personal install. Large imports, long portfolio history and more users need more. The 6 GB plan is the starting point here.

How do I create the first Ghostfolio account?

Open your HTTPS address and choose Get Started. The first user to register becomes the administrator, so do this as soon as the install finishes. xCloud shows you the URL only, because Ghostfolio has no preset login.

What can I track in Ghostfolio?

Stocks, ETFs, cryptocurrencies, cash, liabilities and other assets, across as many accounts as you need. You record each transaction, and Ghostfolio shows performance including dividends, charts and a risk analysis of the portfolio.

Is Ghostfolio Premium included?

No. This is the unmodified open-source Ghostfolio application. Ghostfolio Premium is upstream's separate paid cloud offering, and broker connections are not part of this install. You add accounts and activities by hand or by import.

Do I need a market-data API key?

Not to start. The install sets up no market-data API keys, so you can record accounts and activities right away. Ghostfolio supports optional CoinGecko keys. If you need one, add it in the Environment tab, then click Save & Redeploy.

Is my financial data private?

Your data lives in a PostgreSQL database on your own dedicated Cloud VPS. PostgreSQL and Redis are only reachable by Ghostfolio itself, and the app is only reachable through your HTTPS domain. Review who can sign in before you enter real account details.

Does my data survive a restart?

Yes. Accounts, activities and settings are stored in PostgreSQL on the ghostfolio_postgres_data volume, which is kept across restarts and redeploys. Redis only holds cache and session data, so you may need to sign in again if it is recreated.

Is Ghostfolio free?

The software is open source under the AGPL-3.0 licence, so there is no licence fee for the application. You are billed for the dedicated Cloud VPS that runs Ghostfolio and its two databases.

How do I back up Ghostfolio?

Back up the ghostfolio_postgres_data volume. It holds your users, portfolios, activities and settings. Redis is a cache and does not need a backup. Nothing schedules an app backup for you, so set one up and keep a copy off the server.

Backup and restore Docker apps

How do I upgrade Ghostfolio?

The install stays on its pinned 3.92.0 image until you move to a newer template version. Existing sites are never upgraded automatically. Back up ghostfolio_postgres_data first, read the upstream release notes and keep your generated secrets unchanged.

Can I change the generated secrets?

Keep ACCESS_TOKEN_SALT and JWT_SECRET_KEY as they are. To rotate the PostgreSQL or Redis password, change it inside that service first, then update the matching value in your site's Environment tab and click Save & Redeploy. Back up the database volume before you start.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
