Community votes, Premium CPU and flexible plan payments

Give your gameserver extra CPU priority under load, help community favorites get discovered, and choose your payment method for paid plan changes. This release also makes VPS management, Classic migrations, and AI-assisted support more reliable.

More reliable servers and daily management

• Give your gameserver CPU priority under load with Premium CPU. The new option costs 50% extra and gives your server a higher share of CPU scheduling priority when the host is busy. It does not add cores or provide dedicated hardware, and existing Legacy Premium CPU options carry over during migration.
• Keep services running with fewer interruptions. FiveM downloads now use the correct version links, with a recommended-version fallback; TeamSpeak can recover its online status after an outage; Discord bot refund handling is corrected; and failed orders can receive automatic diagnosis and repairs where safe.
• Get more responsive VPS live information. Live readings and status refreshes are more efficient, reducing unnecessary waiting when checking your server.
• Trust scheduled actions and reinstall results. Scheduled starts, stops, and restarts check the server’s actual power state. Reinstalls that fail before touching the VPS restore its previous state and show a customer-facing failure reason, while server placement avoids storage that cannot hold customer disks.
• See more dependable traffic usage. VPS counting avoids double-counting traffic inside the server, and dedicated-server counting handles counter resets and inconsistent readings more safely. Quota restrictions lift when usage returns below the limit, with fixes to cycle notifications and usage history.
• Choose an installation disk with clearer guidance. VPS ISO orders warn when the selected disk is below the operating system’s minimum, including the 52 GB requirement for Windows 11.
• Build integrations with clearer VPS API responses. Service listings include granted VPS permissions, app-facing errors follow the selected language, schedule access distinguishes missing permission from a missing server, and reverse-DNS errors no longer expose raw provider messages.

An easier move from Classic

• Continue your migration through sign-in without losing your place. New social-login accounts and OAuth sign-ins with two-factor authentication can continue through the preview gate. Expired or unusable migration links now come with guidance instead of only an early-access message.
• Get IPv6 automatically on migrated VPS services. Running VPS services moved from Classic receive a free IPv6 /64, including previously migrated services, with fixes for reboot persistence and use of the full range. Eligible migrated Lifetime VPS services can also apply the free upgrade from 500 to 1,000 Mbit/s.
• Follow clearer progress for eligible Lifetime gameserver and Discord bot migrations. The limited-access migration flow now supports server adoption and data transfer with visible progress phases. Final switchover is not included in this release.
• Upgrade IPs on migrated Lifetime dedicated servers with the correct pricing information. Migration now preserves the configuration and Lifetime pricing details needed to calculate those upgrades.

Clearer payments and pricing

• Choose how to pay for a plan change. Supported service and ZapX Pass change dialogs show a payment-method picker when an immediate charge is needed, preselect the subscription’s current method, and explain that the choice becomes its ongoing payment method. Saving it as your account default happens only after a successful charge.
• Understand bonus-code restrictions before ordering. The shop discount bubble shows when a code is for new orders only, its expiry, and a Details link, making it clearer why a code cannot be used for an existing service upgrade.
• Get clearer billing results and more consistent prices. Resuming with SEPA Direct Debit without a valid mandate returns a payment decline rather than a generic server error. Remaining outdated displayed prices are corrected, and payment processing is more resilient to delayed or repeated payment notifications.

More ways to support the community

• Vote for your favorite partners and servers. Verified accounts can influence rankings in the partner directory and Minecraft, FiveM, and Discord server lists. Each list allows one vote, or 3, 9, or 18 with ZapX Pass Plus, Pro, or Max, spread across different entries and movable at any time.
• Reward Minecraft players with daily votes. Players can vote without an account using their Minecraft name and verification, once per name and IP every 24 hours. These votes can deliver Votifier rewards but do not affect directory rankings.
• Receive your ZapX Pass Discord perks. Community roles, including ZapX Pass and Exclusive Supporter roles, now sync with your Pass entitlement.
• Support partners through their own links without changing your price. Visiting a partner profile no longer assigns or switches your referral. Profiles explain how to use the partner’s channel link, and the order ticker can show which partner an order supports.
• Navigate a more consistent partner and affiliate area. Overview and campaign cards are easier to scan, long lists have pagination, and empty states give clearer guidance. Giveaway requests now use support tickets instead of an unfinished marketing mailbox.

AI help that follows through

• Keep AI-assisted tasks moving after confirmation. Confirming a snapshot, backup, or another supported action more reliably resumes the assistant’s next step. Account, billing, domain, and service actions use a consistent confirmation flow, with clearer wording when an action completed but the assistant reached its message limit.
• Get more accurate answers before changing a service. The assistant better explains discount-code limits, flags plan previews that cannot be applied, and gives more accurate guidance about IPv6 after migration. It also makes clear that moved Lifetime servers require an active ZapX Pass and are locked, not automatically deleted, without one.
• Reach human support sooner when needed. Requests to exchange a blocklisted VPS IP go directly to a person, and Zappy hands over when it cannot generate a reply. It also avoids command attempts that are unavailable in ordinary support tickets.
• Keep sensitive account actions protected during support reviews. Staff viewing your account see your payment methods read-only, while login security, checkout, account linking, and other sensitive actions are restricted in that viewing mode.

Faster discovery and clearer information

• Check domain availability without waiting for AI suggestions. Search results appear first while suggestions load separately, and domain searches and detail pages avoid unnecessary waiting.
• Explore hosting options more easily. Selected gameserver pages are testing section-jump navigation, Modrinth Mods information is available in eight additional languages, and the Nitrado, Vultr, and hosting-comparison pages now cover all nine supported languages with VAT and ZapX Pass cost notes.
• Read clearer product and trust information. Domain-page wording and location labels are corrected, translations are refreshed, Trustpilot ratings include an explanation of review verification, and Lifetime information clarifies the absence of a rental term. New help categories also become available more reliably.
