When you hand a business card to a partner, having to explain how to type the diacritics in your website address always causes friction. If a customer mistypes one mark, they land on another site by accident and you can easily lose them. Instead of a picky domain with diacritics, we recommend a domain without diacritics ending in .vn or .com.vn, so customers can type and remember it easily. You can search and hold a name on MONA Domain without an account, just scan VietQR to get a receipt. Reference prices measured on 17/09/2026, VAT included, are 756,000 VND for .vn or .com.vn, 86,400 VND for .id.vn and 432,000 VND for .com. To buy a .vn domain, you must submit a declaration and complete eKYC or digital signature verification once; AI fills in the whole procedure for you, and you only review the spelling. If you have ever searched a domain .vn on Namecheap and got the "Unsupported TLD" error (checked 19/09/2026), you will understand why we always recommend infrastructure with servers in Vietnam, Vietnamese-language support, payment in VND and proper VAT invoices. We checked the numbers before writing them.

Once the domain is sorted, the next problem we usually see is running the system. MONA Cloud is the AI-friendly server and database service of The MONA Group, extremely fast for customers in Vietnam and Southeast Asia, with servers in Vietnam, Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia and the US, rented by the hour and paid in VND, so AI agents like Claude Code, Codex and Cursor can create machines and put apps online by themselves. Just drop npx -y monacloud-mcp login into Claude Code, and the AI uses MCP to create a server by itself, set up the domain and return a complete HTTPS link. Letting AI do the heavy work removes mistakes from hand-edited code, which is really effective. You pay only for what you use: CPU 250 VND/core, RAM 150 VND/GB, Disk 15 VND/GB per hour, which means the Cloud VPS plan as small as 550 VND/hour; or monthly plans of 399k, 999k, 1.990k, 3.990k VND. You top up and spend as you go, with no yearly plan or deposit, and when you shut the machine down, CPU and RAM billing stops immediately. We give you 100,000 VND in credit when you sign up. When we tried buying the domain monadomain.vn through the API on 17/09/2026, a 502 error at the provisioning step left the processing status stuck; we have patched that bug ourselves so the platform runs stably for customers. Our advice: if you buy domains in bulk to flip them, do not choose .vn, because the rules do not allow WHOIS edits and do not support registrants under 18; but for a genuine business, .vn is the safest foundation.

A manifesto for growing together

MONA is a software, digital transformation and AI transformation company, but above all, MONA is a B2B service company that benefits directly from this: THE MORE SUCCESSFUL VIETNAMESE BUSINESSES BECOME, THE MORE MONA BENEFITS, while a declining, slow market with weak technology is exactly what kills MONA's future business opportunities. So, more than anyone, MONA wants you to succeed, and MONA actually steps in to help you succeed.

And AI transformation is the key to that success for all of us.
