Host a Private Rust Server for Friends

Custom Rates, Team Limits & Scheduled Wipes

Host a Private Rust Server for Friends

Do you want a personal Rust server for your group? Host a private Rust server and skip port forwarding, hardware at home, and a PC that must stay on 24/7. Keep the server unlisted for your group, or add a whitelist plugin via Oxide or Carbon to make it strictly invite-only. Increase gather rates for a relaxed group wipe, or set team limits for a fair fight. Create a Rust server in minutes: select a plan and your server is live, then shape the map and wipe schedule from the panel.

Set Up in Minutes.

You do not need port forwarding or hardware at home. Your Rust server deploys instantly and stays online 24/7, with or without players.

Yours First, Public When Ready.

Keep the server unlisted for your group โ€” or add a whitelist plugin for strict invite-only. Add it to the public list when you want to grow. Same server, same map, your call.

What is Rust Server Hosting?

Unlimited Freedom, Zero Restrictions

What is Rust Server Hosting?

Rust server hosting gives you a dedicated server that runs 24/7, allowing you and your community to survive, raid, and build together anytime. Unlike playing on public servers, you get complete controlโ€”set gather rates, configure PvP rules, install any mods you want, and customize every aspect of gameplay. With no slot limits, unlimited mod support, and instant setup, you can create the exact Rust experience you envision.

No Slot Limits.

Scale your community without artificial restrictions. Host as many players as your hardware plan supports, from a private wipe with friends to a full public server, with no slot count standing between you and either one.

Full Mod Support.

Use Oxide, uMod, Carbon, or any plugin loader you want. Create unique gameplay experiences with complete modding freedom and one-click mod installation.
