Analysis written by Valentin for Minecraft Hosts from the plans and information published by MagmaNode, checked on October 9, 2026. This is not a hands-on test.
MagmaNode, run by Balker Industries Ltd, offers ad-supported free Minecraft servers in Falkenstein, Germany, and paid plans in Miami and Coventry at a flat 2.50 USD per GB. The paid plans list a Ryzen 9 7900 or Ryzen 7 7700X, DDR5 ECC and 200 GB of NVMe. The free tier is poorly documented: its RAM, storage and duration are not published on the site.
Paid plans cost 2.50 USD per GB per month: 4.99 USD for 2 GB (Dirt), 9.99 USD for 4 GB (Coal), 14.99 USD for 6 GB (Iron), up to 39.99 USD for 16 GB (Obsidian). Prices are in US dollars, with EUR available in the cart and no tax mention. Longer billing cycles give small discounts: 3% quarterly, 5% semi-annually and 7% annually (111.49 USD per year for 4 GB). GeyserMC or BungeeCord setup costs a 5.00 USD setup fee. The free tier costs nothing and is funded by ads.
The store lists "Ryzen 9 7900 @ 5.4 GHz / Ryzen 7 7700X @ 5.4 GHz" for paid plans, without saying which one you get. On PassMark, they score 4,120 and 4,175 points in single-thread. Plans get 1 to 4 threads, capped at 4 from 6 GB upward, with DDR5 ECC memory and 200 GB of NVMe storage. Free servers run on AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D nodes with DDR5 5600 MHz, but the resources given to each free server are not stated.
Paid servers include a modpack installer, a plugin installer, a server importer, a firewall manager, server splitting (1 to 8 splits), backups, a free MySQL database and FTP access, with no slot limit. Java, Bedrock, BungeeCord and PocketMineMP can be chosen in the cart. Free servers support Java (Paper, Purpur, Spigot, Forge, Vanilla), Bedrock, GeyserMC, Mohist, Nukkit and PowerNukkitX.
Support is provided through Discord and a ticket system, with multilingual help announced. A refund can be requested within 14 days of the first payment, only with a valid reason such as no support reply within 3 working days. Chargebacks lead to account termination. The operator is Balker Industries Ltd, with no published address or founding date. DDoS protection is announced up to 800 Gb/s.
