The installation package can be set up on ANY host. There are four different packages. You should read about all of them.

Hello there!
You see, installation package - this is a complete service. For installing your store, providing with hosting and domain name and payment gateway integration.
So you cannot take installation package - and hosting from other company, cause we install premium stores ONLY on our hosting.
So you take a store with installation pack - and we will do everything for you.
Or you take a store without installation pack - and install store by yourself, including payment gateway set up.

I'd double check and ask one of the Admins online in this forum if I was you.
But I guess it may be correct if they think copying and entire store full of products to another server takes too long. Not worth it as far as I'm concerned. And you will also have the same problems transferring a full store that they may have already anticipated would be the case.
What's your problem with setting up a store yourself and importing products? The documentation makes it simple enough that a 10 year old could do it. (I taught 10 y.os for 7 years, lol)
There's no way I'd buy a "copy" of a store. Original is best.
But up to you.
Good luck.

Hi!
No, it does not work with premium stores.
If you take custom store package, where we build websites from scratch, yes, you can take other hosting.
Installation package in premium store - is a complete service with hosting already.
We offer you a choice, you can take it or not.
If you want own hosting, no problem - but you will have to do all installation yourself.

hi @Direct Webstore , based on your experience is the basic plan good enough for 3 woo stores with around 300 items, or need separate multiple hosting plan for each?

Purchase from Bluehost hosting (affiliate here lol), I'll set up everything for you for free
Yet, they only do it for you when you purchase the "Installing package".
The package is $200, with that amount, they better include the domain name and hosting lol (which they do)

That would cost you triple... Why not go for 1 place to control all stores
And having 300 products is not really much, my store has 320 products and it's only 9-10Gb of data.

Haha true, but I just worried about cpu or performance if it is shared by 3 website

It is not the number of sites, rather the content of the sites. This $2.50/mo. plan is the same plan I have with two sites with a total of more than 2,000 products, used to be more than 3,000 but reduced with AliExpress products fast disappearing and I am not able to catch up and replace. Total Disk Usage is 24.54GB with minimal CPU usage. Both sites are loading at around 3 seconds. So to answer your question, you don't need another account for that content you mentioned. Use the link; https://www.interserver.net/r/502444 to avail of the promotion. This is a one week promotion. As stated earlier, the $2.50/mo. is for the life of the account. Unlike other host providers, you will pay more during renewal. The promotion will start tomorrow, Nov. 27. Take note of the time difference. It may be 27th in your place but not yet in the US.

Very well satisfied. This is the right time to migrate your site with the $2.50/mo. of the account life Black Friday promotion.

Take note of the time difference also. Your local time maybe a number of hours advance.

Make it two. I have 2 at the moment with no problems. But before I had 3 and sometimes the resourses were overstretched. I opened a second account for the 3rd and am adding another soon. But it depends on lots of factors. The other plugins you use, cache plugin, images optimized or not, the products and number of images and on and on. You'll just have to experiment. @Mar has several thousand products in one store and I think she has a second one.
Like she said above and similar to what I just said, it depends on the content. You may be able to run 3 stores on the same account with little or no problems. I did, but with rare problems.Every setup is different.

I'm using two separate accounts for 3 (soon to be 4) stores as it worked out to be a bit cheaper than upgrading ... at the time.. Why not go for 1 place to control all stores
Thanks, will try this
Could you please and @Direct Webstore run this TTFB test and report back?

The 0.5s score on the photo above doesn't seem that promising.
Here is mine on siteground shared middle plan (US Server) :

Not sure what put you off, I'm just looking to make a data driven decision about changing host.
As I said I'm happy with siteground, so I'm looking to "upgrade" to another host that has some potential benefits, for example: server speed.
Maybe there are some other "obvious" advantages on interserver that I'm not aware of?
I'm not looking solely to cut down on expenses and select something cheaper hosting-wise.
Does this make sense?
