Your top questions about Ray game-server hosting, pricing, and features answered.
General & Technical
Resource scaling depends heavily on the engine. Our checkout system automatically calculates the recommended DDR5 RAM and logical cores required based on your target player count.
We utilize AMD Ryzen™ 9 7900 processors hitting 5.4GHz+, paired with ECC DDR5 RAM and RAID-1 Gen4 NVMe arrays for zero I/O bottlenecking.
Yes – change games instantly via the control panel; all data remains safe.
You receive a dedicated IP & port – players just enter them in-game.
Yes. Every game server instance includes a dedicated MySQL database with phpMyAdmin access hosted on NVMe storage.
We capture full snapshots and database dumps on an automated, multi-tiered schedule. For server files, we run daily snapshots (with a staggered minute to ensure your server experiences zero I/O lag) keeping a history of 7 daily, 4 weekly, and 3 monthly snapshots. For MySQL databases, we take midnight dumps and keep the last 4 daily and 2 weekly copies. You can perform instant, one-click restores for any backup from your control panel.

No hard limits, but performance hinges on your resources. Hefty modpacks might need a bit more RAM/CPU grunt.
Billing & Account
It depends on the cycle you pick: 7 days, 1 month, 3 months, or yearly. It auto-renews unless you cancel it.
Cancel anytime via your billing panel — that’ll put a stop to any future renewals.
We chuck in a 24-hour free trial so you can have a proper look at our service before you put your hand in your pocket. Paid services are non-refundable, as per our Terms of Service. In rare cases, like a billing cock-up or technical nightmare, we might sort you out with account credit.
Our free trial runs for 24 hours and gives you the full works so you can test server performance and features. A few resource caps or premium bits might be locked down during this time.
Too right! You can upgrade whenever you like. Once you upgrade or pay for an order, it becomes non-refundable and counts as a binding commitment.
If a billing glitch or tech fault is stopping you from playing, give our support team a shout. If it's a verified issue, we might bung you some account credit to make up for it, but cash refunds aren't on the table.
Not at the minute. We take a few different methods via Stripe.
Nope — VAT/taxes aren't tacked onto our prices.
Security & Privacy
