Which region should I choose for players in Tanta?

Frankfurt for the lowest ping. If your friends are spread across continents, pick the region in the middle of the group; London is the next closest to Tanta at an estimated 60 ms.

Is the free server available from Egypt?

Yes. The free tier is available worldwide and runs on the United States and Spain nodes, subject to capacity. It has 3.5 GB RAM, sleeps after 15 idle minutes and wakes when a player joins. No card is needed.

Can I pay in Egyptian Pound?

Plans are charged in US dollars. Any Visa, Mastercard or American Express card from Egypt works, and your bank converts at its own rate. The Egyptian Pound prices on this page are estimates to help you compare.

Can my friends on phones and consoles join from Tanta?

Yes. Create a Bedrock server, or run a Java server with Geyser so both editions join the same world. Bedrock uses UDP port 19132, which the panel assigns for you.

Does Enzonic have a data centre in Tanta?

No. Enzonic runs its own hardware in the United States and Spain and rents capacity in London, Frankfurt, Bengaluru and Singapore. This page is here to tell you honestly which of those is closest to Tanta and what to expect.
