Enhance Panel hosting for X-Cart 5 - PHP 8.1, Composer, SSH access, MySQL, NVMe SSD, and UK support from £4.99/mo.
About X-Cart
X-Cart hosting in the UK from Glitch Servers provides the PHP 8.1 environment, Composer package management, SSH access, and NVMe SSD performance that X-Cart 5 requires for deployment on Enhance Panel infrastructure. X-Cart is a high-performance PHP ecommerce platform built on Symfony components, used by UK and international retailers who need advanced B2B ecommerce features, multi-vendor marketplace capabilities, or a highly customisable storefront without monthly SaaS fees. X-Cart 5 uses Composer for module management and requires SSH access for CLI operations and deployment - both available on every Glitch Servers Enhance Panel plan. The platform's Symfony-based architecture places it closer to a PHP framework than a simple CMS, benefiting from NVMe SSD-backed MySQL for fast product and order query performance. Glitch Servers provides PHP 8.1 through 8.3, MySQL 8.0, Composer via SSH, cron support, and free SSL on all plans.
