IonCube Loader is a software instrument, which is required to run files that are protected with ionCube PHP Encoder. The latter is an application which is used to make PHP code human unreadable, to protect it from reverse engineering or illegal usage. Various script-driven applications, especially forums, cms and e-commerce solutions are encoded with ionCube PHP Encoder, so when you purchase a script and you notice that ionCube is on the list of hosting environment prerequisites, you need to make sure that your web hosting server has the tool pre-installed. Though it is not that hard to install it if you have your own server, it's almost impossible to do that on a shared hosting server for the reason that the PHP environment should be precompiled and all clients on the server shall be affected.

If you aquire a Linux cloud package through us, it will be created on our custom cloud hosting platform where ionCube Loader is already installed, so you will not have any kind of problems to run any script app that needs the tool in order to function properly. Furthermore, we offer you several different versions of PHP, so if you switch the version, you will need to enable ionCube again. Our platform remembers the adjustments you make, and when you switch back to the previous release of PHP which was active for your account, ionCube Loader will already be enabled.

Each adjustment that you make takes literally just a single click and it'll take effect without delay.
