Smarter scheduling, clearer checkout, and stronger security

Keep schedules on local time, let AI tasks finish while you’re away, and shop with clearer delivery estimates, Lifetime options, and stronger account protection.

Plan tasks around your local time, let the AI assistant finish work while you’re away, and see more useful information before you buy. This release also brings Dedicated Lifetime Server Slots, stronger protection for sensitive account actions, and practical improvements across server management and community tools.

More control over everyday server tasks

  • Keep schedules aligned with your local time. Choose a searchable timezone for gameserver, TeamSpeak, Discord bot, and additional VPS backup schedules. Tasks stay on that local time through daylight-saving changes, with a preview of the next three runs in your chosen zone and UTC.
  • Work more comfortably in your VPS console. Send pasted, multiline text to the guest, start with a keyboard layout based on the installed template, and choose a console zoom level. Corrected German special-character keys and clearer RAM and disk gauges, using guest-reported usage when available and labeling the source, make everyday checks easier.
  • Get more reliable VPS backups and app setup. Backups now use the storage destination assigned to the host rather than an unrelated fallback. Coolify setup no longer stops solely because managed-subdomain proxy configuration fails, and retains the internal panel address for access.

AI help that keeps working

  • Leave the page without interrupting your assistant. Started gameserver and VPS AI tasks continue until they finish, and returning to the chat shows the result or a live working state. If a confirmed action fails, the assistant now receives the error and can respond without you having to explain it manually.
  • Handle more tasks directly in the conversation. Customer assistants can make HTTP(S) requests to public APIs, webhooks, and status endpoints, subject to usage limits and network safety checks. Gameserver file-writing tasks also create missing parent folders instead of failing with an unknown error.

More confidence before you pay

  • See what you’re buying and when to expect it. Checkout now shows estimated provisioning timing before payment, while game listings show three packages suited to each game rather than a generic price ladder. Where a product landing page is available, purchase links take you there first and preserve your selected package and location through to configuration.
  • Buy Dedicated Servers as Lifetime with ZapX Pass. Dedicated Lifetime Server Slots are now a purchasable Pass add-on, with a quantity range of up to 25 slots and checkout improvements that make the total price easier to understand.
  • Get more accurate billing across purchases and changes. Price checks help keep charges aligned with current catalog prices; rental checkout shows the prorated Pass upgrade amount; Pass changes, rental add-ons, and trials respect the subscription currency; and staff-triggered service deletion now cancels the linked subscription or order.
  • Use real discounts from free tool pages. Eligible tool-page offers now use working codes for 10% off the first billing period on gameservers and VPS. The discount is redeemable once per customer across all tool codes, and partner coupons take priority.

Find the right hosting faster

  • Browse hosting through more useful menus. The gameserver menu separates familiar, new, popular, and additional games, while the FiveM menu brings together FiveM, RedM, SA:MP, MTA, live prices, and related tools. A new VPS menu links to searchable self-hosted apps, and the Minecraft menu drops the redundant trending-modpacks column.
  • Compare products with less visual clutter. Lifetime pricing cards no longer repeat the active mode with an extra badge, while popular and custom badges remain. Gameserver landing heroes lose the redundant secondary button, action buttons use more consistent styling and sizing, and use-case previews support game- or app-specific text.
  • See locations that match the product. Location lists now reflect actual regions available for each product. The combined FFM/Eygelshoven location uses a split German/Dutch flag consistently across customer-facing pages.
  • Explore customer ratings in one place. The new ZAP-Hosting reviews page brings together review portals, daily rating updates, and selected Trustpilot reviews, with clear labeling that the displayed carousel is a positive selection.
  • Know the mobile app’s availability at a glance. Website app showcases now clearly mark ZapX Mobile as coming soon for iOS and Android rather than implying it is already available in stores.

Safer accounts and clearer service access

  • Confirm your identity before sensitive changes. Enabling or disabling authenticator-based two-factor authentication now requires fresh verification. Changing a VPS root password also requires fresh verification, matching the protection already used when revealing it.
  • Understand how to bring older services into view. Account-linking guidance now explains that services from the legacy panel appear after linking accounts with matching email addresses. Clearer results make it easier to tell whether linking succeeded or no matching legacy account was found.

More useful news, community tools, and translations

  • Receive service news relevant to your hosting. News can now be limited to customers whose products run on the affected hosting systems, so service-specific notices reach the right audience.
  • Unlock your Discord community role successfully. The join and role-sync flow now completes after linking Discord, fixing the blocked role unlock experienced by beta testers.
  • Reach the right game tools faster. Supported gameservers now include a Tools sidebar link that opens the matching catalog in a new tab. The CS2 Skin & Sticker Craft tool generates the updated !ws command and supports all 78 keychains, while the Discord Character Counter now uses the current 300-character bio limit.
  • Read more consistent text in your chosen language. Games & variants status badges and variant descriptions now respect the interface language. Short labels across several languages have been refined using their context, and German wording uses the informal “du” more consistently.
