Create a server without paying first, then scale when your player count grows.

Protection Included

DDoS protection, free subdomains, and managed infrastructure are included by default.

Fast Paid Upgrades

Move to NVMe storage, daily backups, plugins, mods, and 24/7 uptime when you need them.

Availability

Compute is charged only while your Minecraft server is online. When the server is stopped, compute charges stop too; storage and optional backup charges continue so your world remains available.

Prices are shown per hour for easy comparison, but usage is measured with second-level precision. Short sessions are billed as short sessions, not rounded up to a full hour.

Online time is billed at the on-demand rate until compute charges reach the plan's monthly cap. After that, you can keep the server online for the rest of the calendar month without additional compute charges. Storage and optional backups are billed separately.

Storage is billed separately because your world must remain saved even while the server is offline.

Usage is measured in MB-hours and billed daily. A full month of 1 GB of storage typically costs about 10 credits; the exact amount varies slightly with the length of the calendar month.

Storage includes seven daily backups at no additional charge.

Paid plans include seven daily backups as part of the storage price.

Additional backup storage is optional and billed daily from average usage. A full month typically costs about 2 credits per GB, with small variations based on the number of days in the month.

Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade between paid plans at any time, so you can add resources for a growing world or reduce them later. Moving from a paid plan back to the free tier is not currently supported.

It is not a trial. Your free server stays free, and you can upgrade when you need more resources or paid-plan features.

Both Minecraft Java Edition and Minecraft Bedrock Edition servers are supported.

Yes. Paid plans support 24/7 uptime. You can also stop the server when nobody is playing to reduce compute charges without losing your world.

We do not impose a separate player limit. Minecraft defaults to 20 players, which you can change in the server configuration. The practical player count depends on your selected plan, world, view distance, mods, plugins, and what players are doing.

Minecraft servers are currently available in Europe, North America, Singapore, and Australia. Choose the location closest to most of your players for the best latency.

Balanced performance for worlds built to grow.

Choose a Standard plan for dependable everyday performance, 24/7 uptime, and the flexibility to pay for the hours you use.
