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 Bornova at an estimated 45 ms.

Is the free server available from Türkiye?

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 Turkish Lira?

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