Store-X Hosting & Server Requirements
Important before purchase: A compatible Hostinger hosting account is required under the current Store-X supported-hosting policy.
Your chosen plan must also meet the PHP, database, extension, file-permission and server configuration requirements described below.
Choosing Hostinger alone does not automatically guarantee compatibility. Verify your specific plan before installation.
Essential Hosting Requirements
Hostinger Hosting
Use a suitable Hostinger Web or Cloud hosting plan with access to hPanel, PHP configuration, a supported database and website files.
Check that your selected plan meets the complete technical checklist.
PHP 8.4.1 or Newer
Store-X requires PHP 8.4.1 or a newer compatible release.
Select the appropriate PHP version through hPanel and verify the actual installed patch version.
Laravel Compatibility
The server environment must support the Laravel application and bundled dependencies shipped in the Store-X package.
Do not replace bundled dependencies without a documented technical requirement.
MySQL
Create a fresh, empty MySQL database and a database user with the required access privileges.
Prepare the database hostname, port, name, username and password for installation.
Connected Domain and SSL
Use a connected domain with a working HTTPS certificate for a production store. Ensure that URL and SSL configuration work correctly.
Apache / LiteSpeed-Compatible Setup
The hosting environment must support the routing and security rules expected by the supplied .htaccess files.
Keep application and private files protected from public access.
Required PHP Extensions
Verify the following extensions in the PHP configuration of your Hostinger hosting plan.
Some PHP capabilities may already be available by default. The server must also satisfy any additional requirements imposed by the bundled Laravel dependencies.
Files, Permissions & Installation
Upload and extract the original Store-X Buyer ZIP with its directory structure intact.
Keep the application files, entry points, dependencies and supplied database setup resources in their intended locations.
The installer must be able to prepare the required environment configuration.
Ensure appropriate write permissions for:
core/storagecore/bootstrap/cache- Required application upload directories
Use a new empty database for the initial installation. Do not attempt installation over an existing database containing unrelated tables.
Prepare administrator information, complete the initial store configuration and follow the required license activation process.
.env files, database credentials, license secrets or private application files publicly. Keep the package's security rules intact and disable or remove the installer when installation is finished.
Automation & Additional Services
Scheduled Tasks
Cron Job access is needed for scheduled functions such as courier tracking updates, cleanup and automated campaigns when those functions are enabled.
Configure the scheduler to run every minute using the appropriate PHP CLI executable and project directory.
php artisan schedule:run
The line above is the Laravel command, not a complete Hostinger Cron Job entry. The full command must use the correct server paths.
Memory, Storage & Processing
Choose adequate PHP memory, storage, CPU capacity, upload size limits and bandwidth for your product catalog and expected traffic.
Resource availability varies by Hostinger plan.
SMTP Configuration
Configure a compatible SMTP provider for outgoing email and email-dependent features.
Provider credentials and possible third-party charges are separate from the Store-X software.
AI Service Access
AI Admin Assistant, AI Product Content and AI Shopping features may require compatible provider API keys, connectivity and usage allowance.
Merchant Approval & Credentials
External payment gateway usage requires suitable merchant approval and authorized credentials. Switch Payment Gateway has not been live-tested.
Third-Party API Access
Courier APIs and messaging providers may require separate merchant accounts, API credentials, approval and provider fees.
Manual Courier is tested; listed external courier APIs are not yet live-tested.

Important Hosting Compatibility Notice
Hostinger hosting is required under the current Store-X supported-hosting policy.
The Store-X installer checks technical prerequisites, rather than verifying a hosting company's brand. Other hosting providers are outside the currently stated hosting policy and should not be assumed supported for this release.
A Hostinger plan must still meet the complete technical requirements described above.
External payment services, couriers, AI platforms and messaging providers may require additional configuration and separate charges.
Official Hostinger Setup Resources
Use Hostinger's official documentation to configure the required hosting settings:
