How to request a Fantastico License in AMP Updated on August 16, 2021 by Carrie Smaha 1 Minutes, 13 Seconds to Read Fantastico, a feature in cPanel that helps you easily install programs to your account, is no longer available. As of September 17th, 2012, Fantastico has been replaced by Softaculous. This article is being kept in our Support Center for our VPS and Dedicated Customers who may still be using Fantastico. For all other users, please see our Softaculous software installation guide for more help with installing programs such as WordPress and Joomla. VPS plans and Dedicated hosting packages do not include Fantastico de Luxe since the license is issued to the server. You are free to purchase a Fantastico license for $50 per year if you wish to use it on your VPS or Dedicated server. The price shown in AMP will be prorated so your Fantastico license will renew on your hosting package’s renewal date. Requesting a Fantastico license is done through AMP.

Log into AMP Under “Additional Services” click “Other” and select the plan you want to add the Fantastico license to Click “Request Fantastico Software Installer” Verify the information is correct in the fields, and select “Submit” Once you have submitted your request it can take up to 3 to 4 hours for our tech support department to install it on your server.
