Why Host Minecraft on Flux

FluxCraft runs your Minecraft server on the Flux decentralized cloud — thousands of independent nodes across 50+ countries instead of one data center. That architecture is what powers our 99.9% uptime target: with no single point of failure, your world stays reachable around the clock. Both Minecraft Java Edition (for PC players) and Bedrock Edition (for mobile, console, and Windows) are supported, so you can host whichever your community plays.

Because we focus on hosting rather than reselling generic VPS space, every plan includes the things Minecraft server owners actually need: instant deployment, enterprise-grade DDoS protection, 24/7 monitoring, dedicated RAM, and a browser-based control panel with a live console, file manager, and automated backups. Pricing is transparent pay-as-you-go from $1.57/mo, the first month is free, and you can scale RAM up or down as your player base grows — no long-term contracts and no surprise fees.

How It Works

1. Pick your edition

Choose Minecraft Java Edition for PC players and the full mod ecosystem, or Bedrock Edition for friends on mobile, console, and Windows.

2. Choose RAM & plan

Select a plan sized to your player count and whether you run vanilla, plugins, or modpacks — from 2 GB for a friends group up to high-RAM tiers for heavy packs.

3. Deploy in 30 seconds

Your server provisions and boots in under 30 seconds on the Flux decentralized cloud, across 50+ countries for low latency.

4. Share your address

Give friends the domain and port shown in your dashboard — yourserver.app.runonflux.io:41234 — and they join instantly. No home router port-forwarding required, and DDoS protection is included.

Java vs Bedrock — Which Do You Need?

Java Edition is the PC-only original and the home of modding — Forge, Fabric, and the huge Paper/Spigot plugin ecosystem all target Java. Host Java if you want mods, modpacks, or advanced plugins. Bedrock Edition is the cross-device version on phones, tablets, Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and Windows; it is lighter and reaches players who can't run Java at all.

Want everyone on one server regardless of device? Run a Java server with the Geyser crossplay proxy and Bedrock players can join your Java world without a Java account. We break it all down in our Java vs Bedrock and crossplay guide.

Modded & Plugin Support

FluxCraft gives you full file access, so you are never limited to vanilla. Run Paper, Spigot, or Bukkit for plugins — economy, land protection, mini-games, and more — by dropping .jar files into the plugins folder. For deeper customization, run Forge, NeoForge, or Fabric and install individual mods or a full modpack from CurseForge or Modrinth.

Popular packs like RLCraft, All the Mods, and Create-based worlds are all supported — just size your plan appropriately, since modpacks are far more RAM-hungry than vanilla. Our modded Minecraft server guide covers Forge vs Fabric, installing packs, and the RAM each tier needs. Upgrading from a free host? You can upload an existing world and migrate in minutes.

We don't sell player slots. The player count on each plan is a guide to what its CPU and RAM handle comfortably — not a limit we enforce. New servers start with a max-player value sized to your plan, and you can change it any time in the dashboard.

*The first month is free for customers new to Flux Cloud — one free month per account, not per app or per server. If you've deployed any app on Flux before, standard pricing applies. Our 30-day money-back guarantee covers your first paid month only and does not apply when the first month was free.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our hosting service

No. We don't sell player slots and we never cap your server. New servers start with a max-player value sized to your plan, and you can change it any time from the dashboard. The player count shown on each plan is a guide to what its CPU and RAM handle comfortably — with Minecraft, RAM and your mod or plugin list matter far more than the slot number.
Yes. FluxCraft hosts both Minecraft Java Edition (for PC players) and Bedrock Edition (for mobile, console, and Windows 10/11 players). You pick the edition when you deploy, and each runs the correct server software and default port (25565 for Java, 19132 for Bedrock).
Yes, with a crossplay proxy. Install a plugin like Geyser (plus Floodgate) on a Paper or Spigot Java server and Bedrock players on phones, consoles, and tablets can connect to your Java world without a Java account. It is the most popular way to run one server for every device.
As a rule of thumb on Java: 2 GB runs vanilla comfortably for ~4 players, 4 GB handles small plugin servers or ~8, 8 GB suits light modpacks or ~12, 16 GB around ~20, and heavy modpacks like RLCraft or All the Mods want 8–16 GB or more. Bedrock is roughly twice as efficient per GB, so the same plans hold about double. RAM, not player slots, is usually the limiting factor. See our server requirements guide for a full RAM-to-players table.
There is no hard cap — the practical limit depends on RAM, CPU, plugins/mods, view distance, and world complexity. The figure on each plan is what it runs comfortably: on Java, ~4 players at 2 GB, ~8 at 4 GB, ~12 at 8 GB, ~20 at 16 GB, and ~50 at 48 GB. Bedrock is lighter per player, so those same plans hold roughly double. Your server's max-player setting is set to twice the comfortable figure, and you can raise it whenever you like. Modded servers hold far fewer per GB than vanilla.
Yes. FluxCraft gives you full file access, so you can run Paper, Spigot, or Bukkit for plugins, or Forge and Fabric for mods. Upload plugin .jar files to the plugins folder, or mods to the mods folder, then restart the server from the control panel.
Yes. You can install CurseForge or Modrinth modpacks such as RLCraft, All the Mods, Better MC, or Create-based packs. Larger packs need more RAM — we recommend at least 6–8 GB for most and 10–12 GB for the heaviest. Our modded server guide walks through the full process.
Yes. Upload your existing world folder (and plugins/mods) through the file manager, or drop in a full server backup. Migrating from Aternos, Apex, Shockbyte, or a self-hosted PC is straightforward — nothing about your world is locked to us.
Yes. Your FluxCraft server stays online 24/7 with a 99.9% uptime target. Unlike free hosts such as Aternos that shut the server down when no one is playing and queue you to restart it, your world is always reachable at its own address.
All modern Java and Bedrock versions are supported, and you can pick or change the version yourself. That includes current releases like 1.21.x, older versions many modpacks require (1.12.2, 1.16.5, 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.20.1), and snapshots.
Share your server address — the domain and port shown in your dashboard, like yourserver.app.runonflux.io:41234 — and friends add it under Multiplayer → Add Server. Use the domain rather than a raw IP: your server runs on the Flux network, so the underlying node IP can change, while the domain always points at your server. Each server gets its own port, so copy the whole address, port included. Because FluxCraft is fully hosted, there is no home router port-forwarding to configure — the number-one reason self-hosted servers fail to accept connections. If a friend still can't connect, check they are on the same Minecraft version and edition.
Your Minecraft server deploys in under 30 seconds through our automated system, and every server includes enterprise-grade DDoS protection at no extra cost to keep you online during attacks.
FluxCraft uses transparent pay-as-you-go pricing starting at $1.57/mo with no hidden fees or long-term contracts, and the first month is free for new users. You scale RAM up or down as your community grows, running on the Flux decentralized cloud across 50+ countries.
