discord.js bot hosting
free, always on, no card.

Create the bot in the Discord Developer Portal, copy its token, and store it as the DISCORD_TOKEN environment variable in the panel's Startup tab. The code reads it from the environment; nothing secret is in your files.

const { Client, GatewayIntentBits } = require("discord.js");
const client = new Client({ intents: [GatewayIntentBits.Guilds] });
client.login(process.env.DISCORD_TOKEN);

512 MB RAM, 50% CPU, 10 GB disk, a live console, SFTP and file manager access, automatic restart when the process exits, and one bot per account. Free bots run on the bot nodes in London, Frankfurt and Singapore (and the United States as capacity allows). Because the bot talks to Discord's gateway, not to your users directly, the node's location barely matters.

Free bot creation is subject to capacity; when the bot nodes are full you join a short queue and the panel emails you when your bot is placed.

1. 01

   Create the bot server

   Choose the discord.js template (or the JavaScript runtime) and the free tier.

2. 02

   Upload your code

   Drag the project into the file manager or use SFTP. Set DISCORD_TOKEN in the Startup tab; the template runs "npm install" and then "node index.js".

3. 03

   Start and watch the console

   The console shows the login. Invite the bot to a test server with the OAuth2 URL from the Developer Portal.
