Fair analysis

Strengths on both sides

Where AnonPort wins

  • Outside Five Eyes in all 7 jurisdictions
  • Zero personal info (no email, no name)
  • SLA credits on uptime

Where FranTech is strong

  • 20 years of operation
  • Multiple jurisdictions (Canada, Luxembourg, Nevada)
  • Technical customer base — great docs

Our honest verdict

FranTech is a veteran with excellent technical reputation, but Canada's Five Eyes membership makes it a bad match for privacy-first workloads. AnonPort's jurisdictions are specifically outside Five/Nine/Fourteen Eyes.

Pick AnonPort if

Choose AnonPort if: Five Eyes jurisdictions are a dealbreaker, you prefer token auth, or you want the 7-jurisdiction legal diversity.

Pick FranTech if

Choose FranTech if: you're already integrated with their systems, you don't mind Five Eyes exposure, or you want their specific hardware (storage servers).

30-minute migration

Migrating from FranTech in 4 steps

Most AnonPort customers complete the switch from FranTech in under 30 minutes. Snapshot, transfer, restore, cancel — you keep the IP-free move clean and reversible.

  1. 1

    Snapshot your existing server

    Take a full disk snapshot from FranTech's panel (or rsync your data partition). Note your current IP, DNS records, and any reverse-DNS or PTR entries you depend on.

  2. 2

    Order an equivalent AnonPort plan

    Pick a jurisdiction (use our jurisdiction selector if unsure), pick the matching VPS or dedicated tier, and pay in crypto. Your token arrives in seconds; the server is provisioned within 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Restore data and reconfigure DNS

    Either upload your snapshot via custom ISO, or rsync over SSH from the old box. Update A/AAAA records to the new IP. If you run a Tor or VPN service, regenerate the keys to break correlation with the old host.

  4. 4

    Cancel FranTech and rotate keys

    Cancel your FranTech billing once the new server has been live for 24 hours. Rotate any SSH keys, API tokens or service-bound credentials so the old box can't replay anything.

FAQ

Switching from FranTech: FAQ

01 Which is better, AnonPort or FranTech?

It depends on your priority. AnonPort wins on raw operator privacy (token-only auth, no email, no phone, no name, no fiat), a 7-jurisdiction footprint and AI-agent purchasing (MCP, OpenAPI, x402). Where FranTech is genuinely strong: 20 years of operation; Multiple jurisdictions (Canada, Luxembourg, Nevada). Pick whichever maps to your actual threat model.

02 Is AnonPort cheaper than FranTech?

AnonPort VPS starts at $7.50/mo and dedicated at $48.50/mo. The FranTech entry tier is "1 vCPU · 768 MB · 10 GB SSD" — the comparison table above shows the full pricing picture for both providers. Multi-month cycles unlock additional discounts on both sides.

03 Can I pay FranTech with Monero, like AnonPort?

AnonPort accepts 8 native crypto coins including Monero (XMR), with per-order deposit addresses and any-coin checkout. Does FranTech take Monero? Yes (see the feature comparison above for the exact payment rail). Crypto-only operators should always confirm before ordering.

04 How long does the switch from FranTech take?

For a single VPS with under 50 GB of data, expect 20–30 minutes including DNS propagation. Larger workloads scale linearly with disk transfer speed; rsync over SSH typically saturates the destination link.

05 Will my IP address change?

Yes. Inbound IP-bound services (DNS A/AAAA, SPF, reverse DNS, mail relays) need updating. We document the exact records to change in your panel after order. Outbound services keep working with no client-side change.

06 Can I keep my FranTech server running during the switch?

Yes — and we recommend it. Keep the old box on for 24–48 hours after the new one goes live so DNS caches drain naturally. Cancel only once you've verified the new server is serving production traffic correctly.

07 Do I need to re-verify identity?

No. AnonPort does not collect identity at any step. Your account is bound to a token, not a name or email. If FranTech required ID, we discard that link the moment you sign up with us.

08 What about subdomain SSL certificates?

Issue fresh certificates via Let's Encrypt or your CA of choice once DNS points to the new server. Most automated stacks (Caddy, Traefik, certbot) handle this in one command. Old certificates remain valid until expiry; rotate at your pace.
