Easier shopping, more DNS options, and safer gameservers
Compare server packages more easily, keep your checkout choices intact, add advanced DNS records, and get new safeguards for gameserver storage.
Shopping for your next server is more consistent, with synchronized Rent and Lifetime pricing and checkout links that preserve more of your choices. This release also brings additional DNS record types, gameserver resource warnings, and broader Dedicated Server API controls.
Find and configure your next server
- Switch between Rent and Lifetime consistently. Your preference now carries between the navigation and supported product configurators, with matching package prices and price previews across pages.
- Compare packages more easily. Gameserver, VPS, Dedicated Server, and TeamSpeak pricing cards use more consistent layouts, clearer resource and feature displays, better-positioned badges, and more visible custom-configuration buttons.
- Choose TeamSpeak packages in a dedicated step. Small, Middle, and Big tiers are easier to compare, while custom slot selection appears in Options when building your own package. TeamSpeak and Discord Bot also use the same compact Lifetime switch as other configurators.
- Configure comfortably on smaller screens. Checkout content stays within the screen instead of spilling off the right edge, domain add-ons use a clearer on/off layout, and section-by-section scrolling helps you move through configuration.
- Keep more of your checkout choices. Configurator links now preserve domain selections for gameservers, VPS, TeamSpeak, and Discord Bot. Discord Bot links also restore resource and region choices, while gameserver checkout better retains its state after a reload.
- Browse Dedicated Server hardware with less guesswork. CPU names remain readable, benchmark filtering offers single-core and multi-core score choices, and the mobile purchase summary is easier to use.
- See the correct ZapX Pass protection state. An active Pass keeps the included DDoS panel switched on, and the gameserver checkout Pass toggle no longer gets stuck.
Safer gameserver configuration and operation
- Spot configurations below a game's minimum requirements. Custom RAM and storage sliders now show a clear minimum marker and warning when your selection is too low. You can still proceed if you choose.
- Get notified when storage reaches its safety threshold. Gameservers now stop automatically at 95% storage usage, with a customer notification explaining the stop.
- Avoid silent stalls during game selection. Failed product loading no longer leaves a selected game highlighted without advancing or showing an error.
- Access supported game web panels more reliably. Configured web-panel login details are no longer silently lost when a game's setup is created or updated.
More DNS options and safer domain transfers
- Use SSHFP and TLSA DNS records. Both record types are now supported in managed DNS, including domains using Cloudflare protection, alongside the existing record types.
- Keep domain transfer codes out of shared links. Transfer authorization codes are no longer included in checkout URLs, login return links, or page URLs captured in bug reports. Older checkout links also have these codes removed from the address bar.
Broader Dedicated Server controls
- Manage more network settings through the customer API. Additional endpoints cover DDoS settings, DNS and reverse DNS, plus activity and network-traffic information.
- Access installation, rescue, and remote-management controls through the customer API. These endpoints bring more existing website capabilities within reach of app integrations, without implying a separate app rollout. Supported Dedicated Server management actions also recover more reliably from outdated management credentials.
- Handle hardware issues and IP plan changes through the customer API. New endpoints support submitting hardware problem reports, viewing hardware cases, and requesting IP plan changes.
Clearer billing and beta access
- Reach payment setup directly. Billing links can now open the Add payment method dialog instead of leaving you on the general billing page. Payment setup also gets dark ZapX styling and better title wrapping on mobile.
- Trust the billing period shown at checkout. Order summaries and mobile price bars now reflect the selected rental duration. Combined checkout also avoids getting stuck when an associated domain order has permanently failed.
- Get useful beta invitations. Newly invited testers receive an email with the beta access link, access instructions, and an animated guide to submitting feedback.
Smoother browsing and more reliable updates
- Browse more comfortably on touch devices. Rendering and animation changes address iPhone freezes and sluggishness across affected pages, including the homepage, shop, and beta signup page. Smaller initial page payloads also reduce how much data pages need to load.
- See service status without false alarms. Intentionally stopped gameservers, VPS, TeamSpeak servers, and Discord Bots no longer show disruption badges in service lists.
- Read more consistently translated pages. VPS ISO installation steps now appear in the selected language instead of falling back to German, alongside broader translation updates.
- Receive notifications more reliably. Incident emails now retry after temporary delivery failures, and one failed recipient no longer prevents remaining recipients from receiving certain notifications.
- Keep purchase notifications out of your way. The purchase notification widget is hidden on mobile and can be dismissed persistently on desktop. ZapX Pass notifications also use a matching purple accent.
