# Comet Cash BTCPay Server web deployment

This guide explains how to deploy a managed BTCPay Server instance through Comet Cash (opens new window).

Comet Cash uses credits to allocate managed services. The Basic plan costs $30 per month and includes 1,000 credits. Each BTCPay Server instance requires 250 credits, so the Basic plan can run up to four BTCPay Server instances. If you also need Lightning, an LND node requires 350 credits. For example, the Basic plan can run two BTCPay Server instances and one LND node.

# 1. Log into Comet Cash
