Why Beacon

Hosting built around Minecraft, not a leftover VPS.

Same panel, backups, and network for both editions. You pick Java or Bedrock — we handle the rest. The listed price is the renewal price.

Live within 2 minutes

Pick a plan, choose a region, and your world is usually joinable within two minutes. We measure that time on every order.

Mods, plugins, or vanilla

Paper, Forge, Fabric, and Bedrock installers are ready in the panel. Switch software without rebuilding.

NVMe worlds

Chunk loads stay snappy on NVMe-backed disks sized for big maps, not leftover HDD space.

DDoS on Minecraft ports

Protection sits in front of every Minecraft port so raids hit the filter, not your players. Included on every plan.

Play close to home

Choose a location on the map at checkout. Ping is measured before you pay.

First reply within 4 hours

Migrations, plugin crashes, and world restores — talk to people who run Minecraft servers. First reply within 4 hours on business days.

What is included

On every paid plan, before you check out.

Backups, DDoS filtering, NVMe storage, and the RAM/CPU you select — included, not sold as surprises later.

Backups

Backup slots on every paid plan. Create and restore from the panel — no setup fee.

DDoS protection

Filtering on Minecraft ports, included on every plan. Protection sits in front of the game, not as a paid add-on.

NVMe storage

Dedicated disk sized to the plan you pick — not leftover shared HDD space.

Reserved resources

The RAM and CPU shown at checkout are allocated to your server. Player slots are unmetered.
