Frequently Asked Questions - FAQs

We know it can be hard to believe. Our FAQ section should set your mind at ease. If your question isn't answered, please check our community support forum.

Where are your servers located?
We are proud to offer servers in North America and Europe. You can easily select the location of your choosing to minimize latency.
What do upgrades do?
Upgrades help us continue to provide services for free. As opposed to other free hosts, our upgrades are all one-time payment rather than subscription based, meaning your upgrade will apply to your server (and all future servers) forever, for one payment. It also enables us to continue adding new features to the network. If you're interested in upgrading, you can do so on the upgrades page
How does PlayerServers make money?
PlayerServers sells advertisement slots on our website and in-game. The advertisements are non-invasive, but are necessary to provide our services for free. We also provide affordable upgrades to boost your server's resources starting at just $5.00. Anyone who purchases an upgrade will not see ads on our website (see TOS for additional info). It is important to note that Playerservers was not created with profit in mind and is run by a team of volunteers. Any and all purchases are greatly appreciated and support our development.
What's the catch? Do you sell my data?
There's no catch! PlayerServers.net is committed to never selling user data. We make money by providing affordable premium plans and selling advertising slots. Please see our Privacy Policy (Legal) for more information.
What's Playerservers' mission?
Our goal is primarily to become the easiest platform to get a Minecraft server online for free. We cater towards users who are not satisfied with paying for Realms, or Minecraft's finnicky LAN feature. With Playerservers, you can get an SMP online in minutes with just one command, or a creative server, factions server, or any other kind of server you can imagine.
