# Setting up WHMCS backups

As with all your hosting data it's important to ensure you have regular backups of your databases and configuration files.

Krystal offers [Backups Pro as an option on Reseller Hosting](/article/hmc81crcwx-what-backups-do-i-get-with-my-account) - which increases your backups stored from 4x weekly and 1 x monthly to 30 x daily Snapshots.

WHMCS also offers some backup options - either to email a backup of the WHMCS database to an address you choose, or to send the database backup to an off-site SFTP/FTP location. Note this does not include important files like the WHMCS configuration.php - so you should make sure you have an appropriate backup strategy in place.
