Frequently asked

Your server is live in under 60 seconds. Once you complete checkout, our system automatically provisions and configures your server — no waiting, no tickets. You'll receive login details to your control panel immediately.
Yes. You can change your server software at any time from the panel with a single click. Your world, player data, and config files are preserved unless you explicitly choose to reset them. We'd recommend taking a backup first just in case.
Yes — enterprise-grade DDoS protection is included on every plan at no extra cost, including the free tier. It's always on and requires no configuration. Your server won't go offline during an attack.
Our Minecraft servers are hosted in our own data centre in Norwich, UK. This gives UK and European players excellent latency — typically under 10ms for most of England. All hardware is owned and operated by us, not a third-party cloud provider.
Yes, you can scale up or down instantly from your billing panel. Upgrades are prorated so you only pay the difference. Downgrades take effect at the next renewal date. Your server data is never affected by a plan change.
We support all major modpack platforms including CurseForge, Modrinth, Feed The Beast, and ATLauncher. Any public modpack can be installed with a single click from the panel. Custom modpacks can be uploaded manually via FTP or the file manager.
We offer a permanently free Dirt tier — no credit card required, no time limit. It's a real server running on our infrastructure, not a limited demo. When you're ready to grow, upgrading takes seconds and your world carries over automatically.
We offer 24/7 support via live chat and ticket. Our team are Minecraft server operators themselves, so you'll get a real answer rather than a copy-pasted script. Average first response time is under 10 minutes. You can also find step-by-step guides in our Knowledgebase.
