Premium performance for communities of any size.
The Premium tier delivers our best Minecraft server performance, from small private servers to large communities with high player counts and demanding modpacks.
Ryzen 9 performance for demanding worlds
Powered by the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X and fast DDR5 memory, Premium provides exceptional single-threaded and multi-threaded CPU performance. It is built for demanding Minecraft workloads where strong CPU performance keeps gameplay smooth and server performance consistent.
Start small and scale with your server
Premium works just as well for a few friends as it does for a large community. Choose a smaller plan with less RAM to start, then scale up for more players, large modpacks, or resource-intensive plugins. You can upgrade or downgrade RAM at any time.
Built to stay smooth under load
With the right server configuration, Premium is designed to maintain a stable 20 TPS even under demanding workloads, keeping the experience smooth and responsive for your players.
Standard and Budget may offer better value for smaller or less demanding servers. If you expect large player counts, run demanding modpacks, or simply want our best performance, Premium is the recommended choice.

You always pay the lower amount: the hourly total for your online time or the monthly maximum.
Most customers bring their servers online during their region's busiest hours. We keep enough infrastructure available for that peak demand, which influences the hourly rate.
Customers who stay online longer or 24/7 get a lower effective hourly price through the monthly maximum, without a fixed monthly subscription.
The maximum resets each calendar month, and the first paid calendar month is prorated. Storage and optional backups remain separately billed.
* Euro prices include an estimated VAT of 21%. The final VAT applied at checkout is determined by the payment provider and may vary. Billing is ultimately processed in credits.
Designed for demanding Minecraft workloads.
Premium combines Ryzen 9 9950X processors and DDR5 memory with flexible plan sizes, so both small performance-focused servers and large communities can use it.
Why fast single-thread performance matters
Minecraft's main game loop must complete its work every tick. Faster CPU cores provide more room for entities, chunk activity, plugins, and modpack logic before the server falls behind.
20 TPS is a target, not a blanket guarantee
Premium is designed to maintain 20 TPS with a suitable configuration. Extreme view distances, unoptimized mods, entity-heavy farms, or unusually busy worlds can still exceed any server's processing budget.
Player counts are planning estimates, not enforced limits or performance guarantees. Real capacity changes with the Minecraft version, server software, mods, plugins, view and simulation distances, world activity, entities, and how widely players explore. Start with the closest fit, monitor your server, and change plans when its workload changes.
Minecraft hosting without the usual trade-offs.
Start free, add performance when your players need it, and stay in control of what you spend.

Straight answers about Minecraft plans, billing, gameplay, and server locations.
Browse the knowledgebaseOnline-time charges apply only while your Minecraft server is online. When the server is stopped, these charges stop too; storage and optional backup charges continue so your world remains available.
Prices are shown per hour for easy comparison, but online time 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 charges reach the plan's monthly maximum, also called the monthly cap. After that, you can keep the server online for the rest of the calendar month without additional online-time charges.
When you create a server on a paid plan or upgrade a free server to a paid plan, the maximum is prorated for that first calendar month based on how much of the month remains. If paid billing starts around the middle of the month, that month's maximum is roughly half the normal amount, so your online-time charges stop sooner.
The normal full monthly maximum applies from the next calendar month. 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.
Each tier has different resource limits and CPU performance. Minecraft server performance depends heavily on single-thread CPU performance, so we recommend Premium for the best experience.
Budget uses older CPUs, which lets us offer it at a lower price, but its lower performance makes it best suited to small servers. Standard is the middle ground and is suited to medium-sized servers.
For modpacks, we generally recommend Premium. Some modpacks need significantly more CPU performance in addition to extra RAM.
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.
Install plugins, mods, and modpacks with a few clicks in the integrated workshop.
If an add-on is not available in the workshop, you can upload it using the file manager or SFTP. Uploading custom add-ons is available on paid plans only.
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.
There is no player-count limit. Minecraft defaults to 20 player slots, but you can configure a higher value. Each plan's advertised player count is only a recommendation: realistic capacity depends on the server software, mods, plugins and other customization, player activity, and whether players stay close together or spread out.
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.
Give demanding worlds room to perform.
Choose Premium for the strongest hardware tier, responsive gameplay, 24/7 availability, and a predictable monthly compute cap.
