Aternos

Free Minecraft hosting

FreeSelected published offer. Commitment, promotions and renewal conditions below.Check official offer

Aternos is free. Purpify is paid hosting; there is no price saving over a free service. Compare the operating model and control you need.

Staying for a longer adventure?

€63.00 base plan total for a year at the current 25% discount. Quarterly and semiannual terms are also available by arrangement. Dedicated IP is optional at €3.50 per month, subject to regional stock. Confirm your final configuration and billing schedule before paying.

Is Aternos
still a fit?

Aternos is an excellent starting point for a group whose priority is a zero hosting bill and which accepts the free service’s operating rules.

Bring your server’s details to our team. We’ll help you work out the right setup before a complex move.

  1. Keep a copy of your world.

    Download your world and configuration. Keep that backup outside your old hosting account.

  2. Tell us what you’re running.

    Record the version, software, mods and plugins. Confirm any special compatibility requirements with our team.

  3. Choose your next setup.

    Select resources and a region. Discuss migration requirements before ordering, then test your world before inviting everyone.

Talk to us about your move

Before you make the move.

Is Purpify a free Aternos alternative?

No. Purpify offers paid resource plans. Its case is explicit resources, regional selection and a conventional hosting workflow, rather than a lower bill than Aternos.

How do I choose a Purpify plan for my world?

Start with the edition and software, expected simultaneous players and any mods. The configurator suggests a memory plan, tests the listed locations and lets you override the recommendation. Its player guidance is a starting estimate, not a guarantee of performance.

Can you help me move an existing world?

Contact our team before making a complex move. Tell us the server version, software, mods or plugins, save size and preferred location. Keep your own backup and confirm the migration requirements before ordering.

We compare selected offers, keeping their tiers, currencies and billing terms visible. Missing specifications are not treated as missing features. We have not conducted controlled comparative performance, uptime or support-speed tests. Browser HTTP regional tests are connection guidance, not game-performance benchmarks. Providers are not affiliated with or endorsing Purpify.

What paying changes.

A paid plan makes sense when knowing the allocation and choosing the region matter more than eliminating the hosting bill. Start with your edition, expected simultaneous players and any mods. Our configurator gives a planning estimate; it does not turn a player number into a performance guarantee.

vCores and vCPUs describe provider allocations, not necessarily dedicated physical cores. Backup slots and retention periods measure different things. Listed resources do not establish measured performance.

Plan around the free-service model.

Aternos documents a queue when capacity is full and stops empty servers to release resources. That is a trade-off of its free model, not evidence of a broken service. If your group is happy to work within those rules, you may not need paid hosting at all.

Our processor standard & availability

The AMD Ryzen 9950X is our standard processor across all regions. In rare cases where the 9950X is unavailable, we deploy only AM5 processors with boost clocks similar to the 9950X that we've benchmarked to ensure no noticeable performance difference. Our systems maintain maximum boost speeds continuously, ensuring you always receive 9950X-level performance.
