# Managing FTP accounts in the Hosting Panel

> Learn how to manage your FTP accounts from one convenient interface in the hosting.com Hosting Panel.

Some newer hosting accounts use an administration interface directly within the hosting.com Hosting Panel. Unlike cPanel, there is no separate login — you just log in to your hosting.com account at [https://my.hosting.com](https://my.hosting.com) and control your web site, email, and WordPress from one unified interface.

This article provides an overview on how to use this administration interface to manage your FTP accounts. It applies to the following account types:

* Starter Web Hosting
* Plus Web Hosting
* Pro Web Hosting
* Max Web Hosting
