PD MinIO S3 for WHMCS and Blesta

PD MinIO S3 — Sell S3-Compatible Storage on Your Own Server from WHMCS and Blesta

Made and supported by Projektif Digital Ltd. Runs inside PD Modules, the panel every module installs into.

Object Storage

Available for WHMCS and Blesta

Sell your own MinIO server as a native, automatically billed WHMCS or Blesta product. Every order provisions its own isolated bucket with its own scoped credential, and your customer gets a self-service client area from the moment the order completes.

What's in the box

  • Isolated per customer. Each order provisions its own bucket and an access key scoped to that bucket alone. One customer's key cannot reach another customer's data, and your master credentials never leave your WHMCS or Blesta server.
  • Billing on autopilot. bucket usage read from MinIO are read on a daily sweep and written into WHMCS's or Blesta's disk-usage fields, so native overage billing, quota warnings and the client-area usage graph all work with no extra setup.
  • Safe by design. Hitting a quota pauses uploads while downloads keep working, so a customer over quota can still get their data. Suspension switches keys to read-only. Terminating revokes access but retains the data for a window you choose, and purging is approval-gated behind a typed confirmation.
  • Self-service client area. Buckets, presigned share links and the settings this backend supports — presented in your client theme, on every theme WHMCS or Blesta ships.
  • Upgrade and downgrade between plans with data preserved in both directions.

About this backend

Because MinIO runs on your own hardware, storage costs you nothing per gigabyte — the margin is entirely yours, and customer data never leaves your infrastructure.

Why hosts choose it

You already have your own MinIO server. This turns it into a branded, recurring-revenue product in an afternoon: connect the account, generate plans, set your prices. If you later want to sell more than one backend, PD Object Storage is the same engine covering Amazon S3, Cloudflare R2, MinIO and DigitalOcean Spaces in one module — so nothing here is a dead end.

Questions

Which billing platforms does PD MinIO S3 work with?

PD MinIO S3 is available for WHMCS (8.13 or later) and Blesta (6.0 or later). Each has its own page with the screenshots, requirements and price for that system. A module is added to the PD Modules licence of the installation it runs on, so a WHMCS installation and a Blesta installation each hold their own licence.

How is each customer isolated?

Every order gets its own bucket and an access key scoped to that bucket alone. One customer's credential cannot reach another's data, and your master credentials stay on your WHMCS or Blesta server — they are never sent to the customer or stored in the client area.

How does billing work?

A daily task measures each service's real usage and writes it into WHMCS's or Blesta's disk-usage fields. Native overage billing, quota warnings and the client-area usage graph then work exactly as they do for hosting products — there is nothing extra to configure.

How is this different from PD Object Storage?

PD Object Storage is the flagship covering Amazon S3, Cloudflare R2, MinIO and DigitalOcean Spaces in one module. This edition is the same engine focused on your own MinIO server alone — choose it if that is the only backend you sell, and move up to the flagship if you later add another.

What happens if my subscription lapses?

Nothing of yours is touched, and nothing is deleted. The module steps down in stages instead: a 14-day grace period where everything still works and you get a renewal reminder, then admin management locks while your customers carry on being served, and only after that do the customer-facing features stop — behind a neutral "temporarily unavailable, please contact support" message that never mentions licensing to your customer. Anything the module provisioned keeps running in your own account throughout, and your data and settings stay exactly where they are. Renewing restores everything immediately.

How do I get help?

Open a ticket from your client area, or use Get help inside the PD Modules panel, which attaches a diagnostic report — you see a preview of exactly what it contains, and can exclude any part of it, before anything is sent. Support is included with an active subscription; bug reports are welcome whatever your licence state.
