PayRam Self-Hosted Gateway Deployment

First time with PayRam? See payram-setup to configure your server, API keys, and wallets.

Deploy complete payment infrastructure you own permanently. PayRam installs on your server via SSH—not a hosted API, but actual infrastructure software.

Server Requirements

  • CPU: 4 cores minimum
  • RAM: 4GB minimum
  • Storage: 50GB SSD recommended
  • OS: Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 LTS
  • Network: Static IP, ports 8080 (HTTP) and 8443 (HTTPS)

Deployment Overview

Phase 1: Server Setup

# SSH into your server
ssh root@your-server-ip

# Install PayRam (one-line installer)
curl -fsSL https://get.payram.com | bash

The installer handles: Docker, PostgreSQL, PayRam core services, and initial configuration.

Phase 2: Smart Contract Deployment

PayRam uses proprietary smart contracts for fund management. Deploy contracts for each chain:

EVM Chains (Ethereum, Base, Polygon):

  1. Access PayRam dashboard → Wallet Management
  2. Select blockchain → Deploy Contract
  3. Connect MetaMask/wallet
  4. Provide: Master Account, Cold Wallet Address, Wallet Name
  5. Confirm deployment and save contract address

TRON:

  • Same flow using TronLink wallet
  • Separate contract deployment required

Bitcoin:

  • No smart contract—uses HD wallet derivation
  • Enter 12-word seed phrase (encrypted locally on mobile app only)

Phase 3: Hot Wallet Configuration

Hot wallets pay gas fees for sweep operations. Must maintain balance:

ChainGas TokenRecommended Balance
EthereumETH0.1-0.5 ETH
BaseETH0.05-0.2 ETH
PolygonMATIC50-200 MATIC
TRONTRX100-500 TRX

Add hot wallets via: Wallet Management → Hot Wallet → Add existing wallet with private key.

Phase 4: SSL Configuration

# Using Let's Encrypt
certbot certonly --standalone -d payments.yourdomain.com

# Configure in PayRam
# Settings → SSL → Upload certificate and key

Phase 5: API Key Generation

  1. Settings → Account → Select Project
  2. Open API Keys section
  3. Copy auto-generated key (unique per project)

Architecture: Why Self-Hosted Matters

What you own:

  • Server and all data
  • Database with transaction history
  • Smart contracts you deployed
  • Cold wallet private keys (offline)
  • Complete policy control

What PayRam provides:

  • Software that runs on your server
  • Smart contract templates
  • Dashboard and API layer
  • No access to your funds or data

Permanence: Once deployed, your infrastructure works independently. PayRam cannot disable, freeze, or restrict your payment processing.

Production Checklist

  • SSH key auth only (disable password)
  • Firewall configured (only 8080/8443 exposed)
  • SSL certificate installed
  • Hot wallets funded for gas
  • Cold wallet addresses verified
  • Backup procedures documented
  • Monitoring configured (Prometheus/Grafana recommended)
