Minecraft server hosting on your own dedicated server

Most hosts sell you a slice of a shared machine. We give you the whole thing. Every plan is its own dedicated cloud server running just your world, so a busy neighbour can never lag your game. Runs 24/7 without your PC, full file access, any version, modpacks welcome. From £8.49 a month, cancel any time.

Why a dedicated server matters

The cheap hosting you see advertised everywhere works by packing lots of customers onto one big machine. That's how the price gets so low, and it's also why your server lags at 8pm. We do it differently.

No noisy neighbours

On shared hosting, someone else's laggy modpack eats the CPU your server needed. Here the machine is yours alone. Your TPS depends on your world, not on strangers.

Your world is actually yours

Full file access from day one. Upload an existing world, download yours whenever you like, move away any time. No lock-in, no "contact support to get your files".

Run whatever you want

Vanilla, Paper, Forge, Fabric, big modpacks, weird snapshots. It's your machine, so if Minecraft can run it, you can host it.

Online 24/7 without your PC

Your server keeps running when your computer is off. Friends in other time zones play while you sleep, and your electricity bill stays out of it.

How it works

Built to get you from "I want a server" to "my friends are online" with as little friction as we can manage.

Pick a plan

Choose how much memory you need and pay by card. That's the only decision required up front, everything else can change later.

Your server comes online

We create your dedicated machine the moment payment clears, it's typically ready in about a minute. No queue, no setup ticket.

Manage it like it's local

Pick your server type and version, then control everything from the browser dashboard. Console, files, mods, worlds, players. Managing it from inside the desktop app is coming in an update shortly after launch.

Pricing

One flat monthly price, no setup fees, no player limits, cancel any time from your account page. Europe (Germany) first, Australia and the US are coming after launch.

Why it costs a little more than the big shared hosts

A shared host can sell 8GB for less because your server shares one machine with dozens of others. Every plan here is a whole cloud server that belongs to you for the month. It's the same hardware you'd get renting a VPS yourself, with all the setup, updates and management handled.

Hosting or Relay Pro, which one do you need?

They solve different problems and plenty of people will only ever need the £2 one, so here's the honest breakdown.

Relay Pro, from £2/mo

Your PC runs the server, we give it a proper address so anyone can join without you touching your router. Cheapest way to play with friends, but your PC has to be on. Read about Relay Pro.

Cloud Hosting, from £8.49/mo

We run the server for you on a dedicated machine that's online 24/7. Your PC can be off, your world keeps going. The right choice for communities, modpacks and anyone tired of "can you turn the server on?"

Common questions

The things people ask before picking a plan.

When does it launch?
Soon. Europe goes first, with Australia and the US following once EU is running smoothly. Join the Discord for launch news, early testers get first access.
Is it really a dedicated server?
Yes. When you subscribe, a cloud server is created just for you and destroyed when you leave. Nobody else's server runs on it. That's different from the big budget hosts, where "your server" is one of many processes on a shared machine.
Can I upload my own world or modpack?
Yes. You get full file access, so you can bring an existing world, install any modpack or switch server types whenever you like. If you've built a pack in the app's Modpack Builder it'll work here too.
What happens to my world if I cancel?
Your server runs until the end of what you've paid for, then shuts down. We keep a full backup for 7 days after that, so if you resubscribe within a week everything comes back exactly as it was. You can also download your world any time before cancelling, it's your data.
Is there a player limit?
No artificial one. How many players a server handles depends on RAM and your mods, which is why the plans are sized by memory. As a rough guide, 4GB suits a handful of friends on vanilla, 8GB handles bigger groups or light mods, 16GB and up is modpack and community territory.
How do I manage the server?
From the browser dashboard. Console, file manager, mod and plugin installs, world uploads and downloads, player management, restarts, version changes. Support for managing it inside the MC Server Manager desktop app arrives in an update shortly after launch.
Can you see my server's files?
No. We never log into your server. It's managed entirely through the same control channel you use, and there's no SSH access set up on it. If something breaks and you want us to look, you ask first and we only go as far as you're comfortable with.
Where are the servers located?
Launch region is Germany, in a proper datacenter with DDoS protection and a 20TB monthly traffic allowance, which normal Minecraft servers never get close to. Australia and US regions come after launch.
