Minecraft server status checker
Type a server address to see whether it's online right now, as the Minecraft server list sees it.
Want an address that never changes?
Your friends connect to yourserver.play.packyard.ca and that's it. When we move hardware, your address stays the same, with no "new IP, update your server list" messages.
$1.50 per GB of RAM per month, with a $5 minimum (up to 3 GB).
Plus tax. Tax and your total are shown on the next page, before you pay.
First-payment refund if something on our side doesn't work (see Refunds).
How it works
We connect to the server the same way the Minecraft server list does and show what it answers. If it doesn't answer within a few seconds, we show it as offline. Results are kept for up to a minute, so checking again right away shows the same answer.
We don't store the addresses you check.
FAQ
Why does it say offline when my friends can join?
Some servers or protection services block status checks from data centres, and some only answer on a different port. Check the address and port your friends use.
What does the latency number mean?
It's the time for a reply between our checker and the server, not between you and the server.
Does it work for Bedrock servers?
Not yet. It checks Java Edition servers only.
Do you store the addresses I check?
No. We keep the result in memory for up to a minute so repeated checks are fast, then it's gone.
Can I show my server's status on my website?
Yes. Check your server, then copy the badge code under the result. The badge updates every 5 minutes and links back to this page.
