Frequently asked questions about BoxBilling

Can I install BoxBilling on shared hosting?

Yes, as long as the hosting meets the PHP, database, extension and cron requirements. It's usually enough for small projects.

Does BoxBilling need a database?

Yes, it uses MySQL or compatible to store clients, configuration, invoices and other application data.

Why is setting up the cron important?

The cron runs automatic billing and maintenance tasks; without it, some functions may be left pending or not run when expected.
