While these are the minimum requirements, we strongly recommend using the latest available, stable releases of all software and extensions. Recommendations are correct as at September 2022.
For details on the recommended system environment configurations (OS, web server, database engine, PHP, and ionCube Loader), see the System Environment Guide.
* We validate WHMCS to run in Linux based environments running the Apache web server. Other environments like Windows-based configurations may experience compatibility issues with which Technical Support cannot assist.
** Memory requirements vary depending upon the size and volume of activity in an installation. Your exact requirements may differ.
*** As part of PCI compliance, a SSL library capable of TLS 1.2 may be required. If using OpenSSL, version 1.0.1c or newer is recommended.
