+## Option 5: Fly.io
+
+Fly.io is a docker container hosting platform that has a generous free tier. You can host LNBits for free on Fly.io for personal use.
+
+First, sign up for an account at [Fly.io](https://fly.io) (no credit card required). 
+
+Then, install the Fly.io CLI onto your device [here](https://fly.io/docs/getting-started/installing-flyctl/). 
+
+After install is complete, the command will output a command you should copy/paste/run to get `fly` into your `$PATH`. Something like:
+
+```
+flyctl was installed successfully to /home/ubuntu/.fly/bin/flyctl
+Manually add the directory to your $HOME/.bash_profile (or similar)
+  export FLYCTL_INSTALL="/home/ubuntu/.fly"
+  export PATH="$FLYCTL_INSTALL/bin:$PATH"
+```
+
+You can either run those commands, then `source ~/.bash_profile` or, if you don't, you'll have to call Fly from `~/.fly/bin/flyctl`.
+
+Once installed, run the following commands.
+
+```
+git clone https://github.com/lnbits/lnbits-legend.git
+cd lnbits-legend
+fly auth login
+[complete login process]
+fly launch
+```
+
+You'll be prompted to enter an app name, region, postgres (choose no), deploy now (choose no).
+
+You'll now find a file in the directory called `fly.toml`. Open that file and modify/add the following settings. 
+
+Note: Be sure to replace `${PUT_YOUR_LNBITS_ENV_VARS_HERE}` with all relevant environment variables in `.env` or `.env.example`. Environment variable strings should be quoted here, so if in `.env` you have `LNBITS_ENDPOINT=https://legend.lnbits.com` in `fly.toml` you should have `LNBITS_ENDPOINT="https://legend.lnbits.com"`.
+
+Note: Don't enter secret environment variables here. Fly.io offers secrets (via the `fly secrets` command) that are exposed as environment variables in your runtime. So, for example, if using the LND_REST funding source, you can run `fly secrets set LND_REST_MACAROON=<hex_macaroon_data>`.
+
+```
+...
+kill_timeout = 30
+...
+
+...
+[mounts]
+  source="lnbits_data"
+  destination="/data"
+...
+
+...
+[env]
+  HOST="127.0.0.1"
+  PORT=5000
+  LNBITS_FORCE_HTTPS=true
+  LNBITS_DATA_FOLDER="/data"
+  
+  ${PUT_YOUR_LNBITS_ENV_VARS_HERE}
+...
+
+...
+[[services]]
+  internal_port = 5000
+...
+```
+
+Next, create a volume to store the sqlite database for LNBits. Be sure to choose the same region for the volume that you chose earlier.
+
+```
+fly volumes create lnbits_data --size 1
+```
+
+You're ready to deploy! Run `fly deploy` and follow the steps to finish deployment. You'll select a `region` (up to you, choose the same as you did for the storage volume previously created), `postgres` (choose no), `deploy` (choose yes).
+
+You can use `fly logs` to view the application logs, or `fly ssh console` to get a ssh shell in the running container.
