Operate your own Mobazha Node

Self-hosting keeps store data and operations under the operator's control and does not require an optional managed-service subscription.

Evaluation quick start

The current release candidate requires Go 1.26.4, Git, and a supported macOS or Linux environment. Use testnet while evaluating payment flows.

git clone --branch main https://github.com/mobazha/mobazha.git
cd mobazha
go build -tags goolm -o mobazha .
./mobazha init --testnet
./mobazha start --testnet --open

Operator responsibilities

  • Secure the host, administrator access, secrets, and network boundary.
  • Back up data and recovery material before upgrades.
  • Monitor storage, availability, payment integrations, and release notes.
  • Expose only the interfaces your users and agents actually need.

Optional hosted connection

An operator may bind a self-hosted node to an optional Mobazha account for hosted capabilities when offered. Binding does not transfer custody of local recovery material and is not required for independent operation.
