Questions

Why is it free?

Playkeeper is open source (AGPL-3.0), and every feature stays free. A paid add-on will only ever be storage you'd otherwise rent yourself.

What's the catch?

There's none in the software: no ads, limits or trial. You pay your VPS provider, and Playkeeper does the setup, backups and updates.

What does a VPS cost?

From a few dollars a month for a small group, more for big modpacks. The sizing guide suggests a size, and what a Minecraft server costs compares a VPS with game hosts and Realms.

Your server is one command away.
