Question

Can I have multiple users with my droplet?

Posted February 9, 2015 5.6k views

Knowing that I can use apache to host multiple websites can I allow users to sign up and use the server I have paid for?
And if so would I be able to set disk quotas?
And is it against the terms and conditions to charge for this?

Yes you can add multiple users. For security I highly recommend making sure they can login with SSH Keys only!

See https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-enable-user-and-group-quotas to setup quotas.
