Install Kamra on Frappe Cloud.
Search for Kamra on the Frappe Cloud Marketplace, create a site, install the app, and run the same complete open-source PMS. Prefer Azure, AWS, Hostinger, or another cloud? We can help you host there too. You pay Frappe for this path. The software stays free, with no per-room fees.
From a Frappe Cloud account to a live desk
Official Frappe Cloud docs are linked where the work happens in their dashboard. Private benches need a payment method; they are not on the trial.
Private bench + site
Create a private bench on Frappe v16, then a new site on that bench (Frappe’s USD 25+ site plans). Shared trial sites cannot install Kamra.
Add Kamra, then install
On the bench, add Kamra from the marketplace. Deploy the update. On the site, install the app. The payments app comes with it.
Open /kamra/setup
Visit the site, sign in as Administrator with your site password, open /kamra, then /kamra/setup to create the first property.

The product UI is at /kamra
Frappe Desk stays at /app as an admin escape hatch. Day-to-day work is the Kamra UI.
Site password, not a demo login
Use Administrator or [email protected] and the password you set when the site was created. There is no default Kamra password.
First property wizard
Open /kamra/setup. Pick hotel or short-term rental, rooms or villas, your country tax pack, then add staff.

Docs, then us

Straight answers
Is Kamra free on Frappe Cloud?
The Kamra app is free on the marketplace. You pay Frappe Cloud for the site and bench you run it on, on their plans. We do not charge per room or for features.
How is this different from Kamra Cloud?
Frappe Cloud is Frappe’s hosting. You create the site, install Kamra from the marketplace, and manage the bench in their dashboard. Kamra Cloud is us running Kamra for you: migration, backups, updates, and support from the team that builds it.
Why do I need a private bench?
Shared Frappe Cloud sites only install featured marketplace apps. Kamra needs a private bench: a bench group you own, with a site on a plan Frappe prices at USD 25 and above. Add a payment method first; private benches are not on the trial. Then add Kamra to the bench, deploy, and install it on the site.
What do I sign in with after install?
There is no default Kamra password. Sign in at /kamra as Administrator (or [email protected]) with the site password you set when the site was created. Then open /kamra/setup to create the first property.
