Minecraft hosting
A Minecraft server for you and your friends
free to start, $3.79/mo if you want it always on.
For two to ten friends you do not need much: a whitelist, a world that is there when people log in, and no router fiddling. The free tier covers that, sleeping after 15 idle minutes and waking the moment someone joins. If you want it online around the clock, the 4 GB Wood plan is $3.79/mo.

What a friends server needs
Keep it simple. These are the settings that matter for a small private world.
- Whitelist on, so only your friends can join; the panel has a toggle and a player list.
- A simple address: the panel gives you one, or add your own domain for free.
- Backups: one click before a big build or a version update.
- Java or Bedrock: start a Java server and add Geyser if some friends play on phones or consoles.
Free or paid?
The free tier is fine when people play at different times: the server wakes when the first player joins and sleeps when the last one leaves. Choose a paid plan when you want zero wake-up delay, a modpack, or more than a handful of players online at once. Plans can be split between friends with the plan splitter on the pricing page.
