Quick Start
Create an account, purchase a server, and get online in minutes
This guide takes you from sign-up to a running Minecraft server on Nether Host. Start with Create Account if you haven't registered yet.
Save on your first order
Use code WELCOME at checkout for 15% off your first month. Browse plans at netherhost.cc.
Create your account
Don't have an account yet? Complete sign-up first — it only takes a couple of minutes.
Open sign-up
Go to netherhost.cc/auth/signup and choose Personal or Business. This choice is permanent and cannot be changed later.
See Create Account for the full walkthrough.
Finish registration
Enter your name (and business name if applicable), then set your email and password. Click Create Account when done.
Verify your email
Check your inbox and click the verification link. You must verify before purchasing a server — see Verify Email.
Purchase your server
Browse the store
Go to Store (/client/purchase) or browse netherhost.cc/pricing. Choose Budget or Premium, then pick a RAM size that fits your player count.
Budget plans start at $0.99/month (1GB). Premium plans start at $1.99/month (1GB). See Pricing for every tier.
Configure your server
Click a plan to open the configuration screen. Choose:
- Budget or Premium — Ryzen 5 (Budget) or Ryzen 9 7950X3D (Premium)
- Location — Pick the region closest to you or your players (US, Europe, or Asia)
- Billing cycle — Monthly, quarterly, or other available cycles
- Dedicated IP (optional) — Add 1–3 dedicated IPs if you want fixed addresses for your server
When you're happy with the setup, add the server to your cart.
Review your cart
Open Cart to review your configured server, pricing, and billing cycle. This is where you can:
- Apply a coupon code (e.g.
WELCOME) - Adjust items before checkout
- Confirm your total before paying
Complete payment
Select a payment method and finish checkout. Once payment succeeds, your server is provisioned automatically — no manual setup required.
See Payment methods below for details on each option.
Payment methods
| Method | How it works |
|---|---|
| Account balance | Instant. Add funds under Billing → Add Balance, then pay from your wallet at checkout. |
| Stripe | Pay with credit or debit card. You'll be redirected to Stripe's secure checkout, then returned when complete. |
| PayPal | Redirects to PayPal to complete payment, then returns you to Nether Host when finished. |
Account balance tip
Adding balance ahead of time is the fastest way to check out — especially if you plan to run multiple servers or renew regularly.
After your server is ready
Once provisioning finishes, your server appears in the Nether Panel. From there you can:
- Start, stop, and restart your server
- Install Paper, Fabric, Forge, Velocity, Geyser, and more
- Open the console and manage files
- Configure backups, subusers, and server settings
