Frequently asked questions
What hardware powers RepublicNodes?+
Every node runs on AMD EPYC processors with enterprise NVMe storage, dedicated to game hosting workloads rather than general-purpose shared VPS capacity.
How is my server deployed?+
All provisioning runs through Pterodactyl. Once your order is confirmed, an eligible node with sufficient capacity is selected automatically and your server is created without manual staff intervention.
What Minecraft software is supported?+
Vanilla, Paper, Purpur, Spigot, Forge, NeoForge, and Fabric for standalone servers, plus Velocity, Waterfall, and BungeeCord for proxy networks.
Is DDoS protection included?+
Yes — network-level DDoS mitigation sits in front of every node by default; it isn't a paid add-on.
Can I change plans later?+
Yes, from your dashboard. Availability depends on capacity on nodes assigned to the destination plan.
Which payment methods are available?+
Checkout only shows payment providers that RepublicNodes has actually enabled and fully configured — never a method that isn't ready to accept payment.
