Our review

Analysis written by Valentin for Minecraft Hosts from the plans and information published by Apex Hosting, checked on September 22, 2026. This is not a hands-on test.

Verdict

Apex Hosting is a US host founded in 2013 that bills its Minecraft Java and Bedrock servers in US dollars, with 14 locations offered in the cart across five continents. Its entry-level 4 GB Java plan costs $14.99 per month (VAT not stated), with a 40% discount applied automatically to the first month. The main reservation concerns the processor: the standard plans run on shared vCores with no specific model, and the EX Series page names contradictory models.

Pros

  • 14 locations in the cart across five continents
  • Java and Bedrock on the same plans
  • Forge, NeoForge, Fabric, Quilt and modpacks offered
  • 24/7 support by chat and tickets
  • Refund possible within 7 days of creation

Limitations

  • Prices in US dollars, VAT not stated
  • Processor not specified on the standard plans, shared vCores
  • Contradictory processor information for the EX Series
  • Storage not stated per plan
  • No free trial published

Best for

  • Servers that need a location outside Europe: Mumbai, Tokyo, Singapore, São Paulo and Sydney are available in the cart
  • Bedrock players on a small budget: 1 GB Bedrock plan at $3.99 per month
  • Modded servers: Forge, NeoForge, Fabric, Quilt and modpacks are offered in the version list

Less suited if

  • You want to pay in euros with VAT included: prices are shown in US dollars by default, with no mention of VAT
  • You want an identified processor on the standard plans: only "Apex Ryzen Servers" at 4.5 to 4.8 GHz is stated
  • You want to know the disk space: storage is not stated per plan

Pricing and billing

Recurring monthly prices are $14.99 for 4 GB, $22.49 for 6 GB and $27.99 for 8 GB (about $3.75, $3.75 and $3.50 per GB), $3.99 for the 1 GB Bedrock plan and $71.99 for the 16 GB EX Series, all in US dollars with VAT not stated (no tax line appears in the cart for France). The first month is discounted by 40% (for example $8.99 instead of $14.99 for 4 GB), after which the regular price applies. Quarterly billing reduces the price by 10% ($40.47 for 3 months for 4 GB, or $13.49 per month), with the first quarter also discounted. For the EX Series, no quarterly price is displayed and the price could not be checked in the cart. A custom configurator is advertised from $1.50 (Java page) or $2.39 (Bedrock page).

Performance

The standard plans run on AMD Ryzen processors at 4.5 to 4.8 GHz on shared vCores, with no exact model or core count published. The EX Series advertises 4 dedicated vCores and 16 GB of DDR4, but the processor contradicts itself on the same page: the plan card names a Ryzen 9 7950X (4,252 single-thread points on PassMark), the text and the Server Specs page a Ryzen 9 5900X (3,465 points) in the United States and Europe, and a Ryzen 7 5800X (3,448 points) in Asia-Pacific. NVMe storage is stated as included, but the Server Specs page also lists SSD nodes (Dallas, Tel Aviv, São Paulo), and capacity is not stated. The player count is advertised as unlimited.

Minecraft features

The Java plans also support Bedrock (Bedrock Dedicated Server in the version list), and the 4 GB and 8 GB plans on the Bedrock page are the same products as the Java plans. The version list includes Paper, Purpur, Spigot, Forge, NeoForge, Fabric and Quilt, as well as modpacks. The panel is Multicraft according to the terms of service. Backups, DDoS protection and free server transfer are advertised; the EX Series adds a free dedicated IP and premium support.

Support and guarantees

Support is provided by live chat and tickets, 24/7. A 7-day money-back guarantee is displayed; the terms of service limit it to the 7 days following server creation, on a justified request. No free trial is published. The operator is Apex Hosting LLC, a US company founded in 2013. The Frankfurt location was shown as out of stock when the data was collected.

Guides and tools to choose

Notes on the data

  • Currency: the official pages (English, and also German and Spanish) show prices in US dollars; there is no French version. The cart offers a currency selector (USD by default, AUD, CAD, EUR, GBP) and the page product data also contain EUR prices (e.g. 13.05 EUR for 4 GB): they are not used, since the currency displayed by default on the site is USD. Checked from a connection the site located in Mexico; no per-country currency mechanism was found on the site (default "usd").
  • VAT: no incl./excl. VAT label on the pages or in the cart; with France selected as billing country in the cart, no tax line appears before payment. Status "unknown".
  • First month: prices such as "$8.99 first month" reflect the 40% discount on the first Minecraft order (code WILDERNESS40 applied automatically in the cart: 14.99 USD - 6.00 USD = 8.99 USD). priceMonthly = recurring price ("Recurring Price"); the first month is recorded as a "first-month" offer. The site banner also advertises "25% off on first order with APEX25" (generic code, not recorded).
  • Quarterly (-10%): the page shows a 3-month total (4 GB 40.47 USD, 6 GB 60.72 USD, 8 GB 75.57 USD, Bedrock 1 GB 10.77 USD) and a discounted first quarter (24.28, 36.43, 45.34, 6.46 USD). The monthly price in the offers is the total divided by 3, rounded to 2 decimals; the cart confirms the totals ("Quarterly - $40.47").
  • EX Series: 16 GB DDR4 RAM, 4 dedicated vCores, NVMe, free dedicated IP, premium support, 71.99 USD/month (43.19 USD the first month). In quarterly mode the EX card still shows "Billed monthly": no quarterly price is recorded (the page product data state 194.37 USD, not displayed). The "Go EX" button leads to no order page ("#" link) and the product address in the cart redirects to another product: price not verifiable in the cart.
  • EX Series CPU contradicts itself on the same page: bullets say "Ryzen 9 7950X" and "Ryzen 7 5800X (AU)", but the paragraph says "4 exclusive vCores of a Ryzen 9 5900X (US & EU) | Ryzen 7 5800X (APAC)". The Server Specs page lists Ryzen 9 5900X 4.8GHz (US and EU) and Ryzen 7 5800X 4.7GHz (Australia and Singapore): value recorded Ryzen 9 5900X @ 4.8 GHz.
  • Standard plans: CPU not stated per plan (comparison table: "Apex Ryzen Servers", 4.5 - 4.8 GHz, shared vCores, hence dedicatedCpu = false). Storage not stated per plan; NVMe storage shown as included in the comparison table, but the Server Specs page also lists SSD nodes (Dallas, Tel Aviv, São Paulo).
  • Bedrock: the Bedrock page ("Switch to Java Edition") lists 1 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB, Custom and EX. Its 4 GB and 8 GB plans lead to the same cart products as the Java plans (4gb-1 and 8gb-2), with only the "Bedrock Dedicated Server" version preselected: they are not separate offers. The 1 GB plan (product new-1gb, 3.99 USD/month, "Minimum for Minecraft: Bedrock Edition") only exists on the Bedrock page: included as a separate Bedrock offer. The Java plans support Bedrock (Bedrock Dedicated Server in the cart version list).
  • Custom: configurator "Starting at $1.50" (Java page) or "Starting at $2.39" (Bedrock page); the catalogue RAM steps (2 to 32 GB) are not listed as plans on the page: not included.
  • Locations offered in the cart: Mumbai, Tel Aviv, Singapore, Tokyo, Dallas, San José, Miami, New York, Vint Hill, São Paulo, Amsterdam, Frankfurt (shown "Out of Stock"), London, Sydney. Tel Aviv is a new location. The Server Specs page also lists Portland (Oregon), missing from the cart and not recorded, and does not list Mumbai.
  • Server software: the cart version list includes Paper, Purpur, Spigot, Forge, NeoForge, Fabric and Quilt as well as modpacks. Panel: the terms of service mention the "Multicraft panel"; the site links to panel.apexminecrafthosting.com.
  • Refunds: the pricing page shows "7 Day Money Back Guarantee"; the terms of service specify 7 days after server creation, on a justified request. "Free Server Transfer" is shown on the pricing page. Support: live chat and tickets, 24/7. Company: Apex Hosting LLC, an "American-owned company" born in 2013 (About page).
  • EX Series CPU: the page names two models for the US and Europe ("Ryzen 9 7950X" on the plan card, "4 exclusive vCores of a Ryzen 9 5900X (US & EU)" in the text) and a Ryzen 7 5800X in Asia-Pacific. All models are listed; for the ranking, the slowest one is used. Standard plans: "Apex Ryzen Servers", shared vCores at 4.5 to 4.8 GHz, with no exact model or core count (information supplied by the publisher on 23/09/2026).
