Editorial quick picks

These are suggested use cases, not provider statistics. Pick based on your server type first: the lowest advertised charge is not always the best choice for large Forge or Fabric modpacks.

Normalized prices were checked against the linked official pages on June 3, 2026 and use advertised USD per GB per month as the comparison baseline. Where a provider publishes a renewal or standard monthly amount, that amount is used instead of the first-month promo. EUR prices are converted at 1 EUR = 1.1626 USD. Some checkout pages may auto-localize currency. Suggested uses, categories, and recommendation order are editorial.

Guides and comparisons

Before you buy

Prices can change, sales can end, exchange rates can move, and plans can vary by country. Always check the host's checkout page before buying.

• Check monthly renewal price, not only the first-month discount.
• Pick a server location close to your players.
• For modpacks, CPU quality matters as much as RAM.
• Check backups, file access, support speed, and refund policy.
