No need to buy a Mac — rent bare-metal M4 by the month. Full macOS, dedicated IPv4 and 1 Gbps. From ~$95.1/month (16GB · 256GB). Prices below are USD reference rates, monthly price as baseline prorated for other billing periods.
Unified memory architecture lets compilation and simulator run in parallel comfortably; switch billing period tabs to view prices for each tier.
$95.1/ month
Single-project Xcode development · ideal first daily trial. Suited for persistent scripts, light compilation, and remote desktop trials.
Rent this plan$207.3/ month
Multi-branch CI · IDE and simulator open simultaneously. Ideal for persistent pipelines, multi-user SSH, and AI experiment workloads.
Rent this planThese are reference prices; actual billing is as shown on the order page. Daily is one-time; weekly/monthly/quarterly are subscription renewals.
Both tiers have identical network and delivery specs — the main difference is memory and storage. We recommend renting 16GB by the day first to test compile times and VNC latency; upgrade to 24GB or add storage if simulators or CI regularly max out memory. For multi-project isolation, run multiple instances so certificates and environments stay separate.
Go to order page to configureRegardless of which tier you choose, the delivery form and network specs are the same; the main difference is memory and storage.
Standard macOS environment supporting Xcode, Simulator, Docker, and Homebrew; disk and Thunderbolt add-ons are priced separately below.
Bare-metal delivery — not a time-shared virtual machine; compute and isolation are predictable.
Each machine has its own dedicated egress bandwidth — package transfers, dependency pulls, and remote desktop don't compete with others.
Standard plans include a dedicated public IP — whitelists, callbacks, and fixed egress are easier to manage.
Get credentials from the dashboard after provisioning; use SSH for command line, VNC for graphical desktop.

Provisioning progress, power operations, and technical support are all trackable.
Buying a Mac mini starts at ~$799; ZekVPS starts at ~$95.1/month, daily trials available — no upfront investment required.

Short cycles for trials, long cycles for persistent builds or CI; switch the tabs above to see prices for each tier.
Ideal for validating compile speed and network latency; stops automatically at expiry without charging the next period.
Subscription weekly billing — auto-renews at the same tier if not cancelled before expiry.
Monthly subscription — ideal for long-term development and CI pipelines.
Quarterly subscription — per-unit price is typically lower than monthly billing.
Disk and Thunderbolt add-ons sync with the billing period tab above; select them on the order page and order together with the main plan.
Expand for Xcode cache, Docker images, and asset libraries; ideal for projects with larger archive sizes.
+$13.4/ month
Larger storage tier — ideal for multi-repo dependency caches and video editing assets.
+$26.8/ month
High-speed multi-machine interconnect — ideal for multi-node CI coordination and parallel build scenarios.
+$5.1/ month
Four steps; actual time depends on inventory — track progress in the dashboard. See help docs for details.
Choose memory, storage, datacenter, and billing cycle on the order page — no sign-in required.
After payment, the order merges into your account; daily is one-time, weekly/monthly/quarterly are subscriptions.
Enters the delivery queue — datacenter checks inventory for the selected region and begins provisioning.
Once ready, get SSH / VNC credentials from the dashboard and start remote use.
Select a region on the order page — IP and routing are configured per the selected node; inventory is as shown on the order page.
This page shows reference prices; promotions, add-ons, and exchange rates are billed as shown on the order page.
Weekly/monthly/quarterly — cancel in the dashboard before expiry. Daily stops automatically at expiry — no cancellation needed.
After payment you enter the ticket queue; timing depends on inventory — track progress in the dashboard.
Existing customers use a ticket; pre-sales can email support@zekvps.com.
Changing memory tier usually requires purchasing a new instance and migrating data; storage can be expanded via add-ons — details subject to ticket reply.
Full macOS environment — run Xcode, Simulator, Flutter, Fastlane, Docker, etc. See Help Center for details.
