Arc Credits
Referrals turn into real resources, not vanity points.
Open the NodeArc Discord and use /referral to get your personal invite link. Share it with friends; once an invited member creates and genuinely uses a server, you earn Arc Credits. Spend them on resource boosts in the panel. During the launch offer, boosts last 30 days.
Use /referral in the NodeArc Discord. Rewards are paid after an invited player becomes a real, active user.
Launch-offer resource boosts last 30 days and expire automatically.
Balances, purchases, refunds and rewards stay auditable in the panel.

Straight answers before you join.
Is NodeArc really free right now?
Yes. The Free Beta runs on our current beta node and needs no credit card. You can create a server from the website or through the Discord bot.
What server software can I run?
Paper, Purpur, Folia or Fabric — on the Minecraft version you choose when the server is created.
What is a custom address?
Every server gets a name.nodearc.net address, picked when it's created. You can change it later using Arc Credits.
Are my worlds backed up?
Automatic customer backups are not promised in the Free Beta. Download your own copy of any world or configuration you cannot afford to lose.
Are the paid plans available now?
Not yet. We are still validating beta capacity and feedback before announcing future hosting options, resources or pricing.
What are Arc Credits?
Rewards you earn from verified referrals and spend in the store on temporary boosts like extra RAM, disk or backups. During the launch offer, resource boosts last 30 days.
Beta status
