Minecraft: Bedrock Edition server hosting on Spawnly
Spawnly runs Mojang's official Bedrock Dedicated Server, the edition of Minecraft played on phones, tablets and Windows. It is a native server rather than a Java one, so it starts quickly and runs a small group comfortably on the smallest plan. Bedrock and Java Edition are separate games that cannot join each other's servers — if your friends play on mobile or the Windows Bedrock app, this is the server they need.

What a Minecraft: Bedrock Edition server needs
Bedrock's cost is set mostly by how much of the world it simulates, and two settings in server.properties decide that. tick-distance (4 to 12 chunks, default 4) is how far around each player the world keeps running — mobs, crops, redstone — and it is the expensive one. view-distance is how far players can see; it costs bandwidth and memory more than CPU. Raising tick-distance for big farms multiplies the load for every player who is online, so raise it a step at a time. Player count matters too, but a ten-player server with default distances is a light workload.
Running Minecraft: Bedrock Edition on Spawnly
Everything is configured in server.properties: server-name, gamemode, difficulty, max-players (10 by default), level-name and level-seed. Who may join is set by allow-list together with allowlist.json, and operator rights live in permissions.json. Add-ons work as behavior and resource packs: put them in the world's folder and list them in world_behavior_packs.json and world_resource_packs.json. Players connect on UDP 19132, the default the game already fills in. With online-mode on, as it is by default, everyone needs to be signed in to a Microsoft account.

Minecraft: Bedrock Edition server hosting FAQ
Can Java Edition players join a Bedrock server?
No. Java and Bedrock are separate games with different network protocols, so each needs its own server. Pick Bedrock for mobile and Windows Bedrock players, and Java Edition for PC players on the Java launcher.
Can console players join my Bedrock server?
Xbox, PlayStation and Switch versions do not let players add a custom server address, so they cannot join directly. Players on phones, tablets and Windows can add the server by its address and port.
How much does Minecraft: Bedrock Edition server hosting cost?
Minecraft: Bedrock Edition servers start at 2 GB of RAM for €6.49 per month. Larger plans go up to 32 GB, and the pricing page lists every tier.
Can I install mods on my Minecraft: Bedrock Edition server?
Spawnly has no built-in mod browser for Minecraft: Bedrock Edition. Where the game supports server-side mods, upload them through the file manager — you have full access to the server's files.
Are backups included?
Yes. Create a backup at any time, or turn on automatic backups that run when the server stops, with a minimum interval you choose and up to 10 kept. Any backup can be restored from the panel.
Can friends help manage the server?
Yes. Invite them by email or username from the Access tab and choose what each person can do — starting and stopping the server, using the console, editing files and more.
