Minecraft Proxy Hosting in Australia

In Sydney, like every server we run. MCHosts is Australian owned and operated, so you get support in your time zone, read in Australian hours.

The newest stable release of Velocity 4, fetched from PaperMC each time your proxy starts. Restart it from the panel and a new release is what runs. A future major version, which could change how plugins work, is a choice you make in the panel rather than something that happens overnight.

At least one Minecraft server, and usually two or more. They can be MCHosts servers or servers anywhere else with a public address. You add each one on the Config tab, and each one is then set to accept players from the proxy. On a Paper server on your account that is one switch. Forge and Fabric servers need a mod for it. Vanilla can't be set up that way, so behind a proxy its players show up without their real accounts or IP addresses.

Yes. Velocity has its own plugins, separate from a Paper server's, for things like global chat, server selectors and permissions across your network. The Plugins tab searches Modrinth for them and installs the one you pick.

Your plan's storage is fixed at the figure shown, 5GB on Lobby and 10GB on Network. A proxy holds plugins and settings and nothing that grows, so that is plenty for most networks. If you need more, add a 10GB block from your control panel for A$2.50 a month. A block stays with your server once added, because a disk can grow but can't shrink.

You take a backup from the panel whenever you want, and restore it from the same place. Your plugins, settings, the forwarding secret and the Velocity program itself are in it, so a restore brings back exactly the proxy you had.

Yes. You can upgrade to a higher tier at any time through the control panel, and your files and settings carry over automatically.

Yes. Every new server comes with a 7 day money back guarantee. If you're not happy within 7 days of your initial purchase, open a support ticket and we'll refund you in full. This is in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law.
