FAQ
Do you have hidden fees?
No. The price you see is the price you pay each month. RAM is the only variable, billed at €2 per GB. Backups, DDoS protection, modpack installer, and the auto-fix system are included on every plan.
Can I migrate my world from another host?
Yes — upload your world files through the panel's file manager. If you can download a backup zip from your current host, we can run it. The console + file manager handle the rest.
What if I'm not happy?
We offer a 7-day no-questions-asked refund on your first server. Cancel anytime through the billing portal. RAM upgrades and downgrades are instant.
