About us

20 ticks per second. That's what we're named after.

20tps is a German Minecraft host: our own panel, real hardware in German data centres, and prepaid instead of a subscription trap.

Why

Why 20tps exists

We've rented plenty of servers ourselves and hit the same wall every time. The moment a few friends joined, everything started to lag. Restarts dragged on. And when something actually broke, support went quiet for days.

That's exactly why 20tps exists: the host we always wished we had. Fast where it counts, billed honestly, and no fine print.

Nothing on this page is there by accident. Every point is an answer to something that annoyed us as players first.

One server, full performance, no matter how many join.

Mission

What we're building

Server hosting should feel like the game itself: you click, it happens. Fast when you need it, honestly priced, and always in your hands.

A full 20 ticks

A Minecraft server runs at 20 ticks per second. Anything below that you feel instantly as lag. We pick our hardware and locations for that speed, not for margin.

Prepaid, not a subscription trap

You top up and decide yourself when to renew. No contracts, no silent charges, no dunning letters. What you top up is the hard ceiling, and nothing can slip past it.
Explained for parents
Our own panel, not a reskin

Console, files, backups, mods, player management: all built in-house, because bought-in panels stop exactly at the details that make the difference.

Who's behind 20tps

I'm building the host I could never find back when I was the one playing.

Hi, I'm Sergej. I've been in the Minecraft scene for over 12 years, from running my own server network to working in support and development for other large hosts. Everything I learned along the way went into 20tps.

And I'm not doing it alone. There's a small team behind 20tps pulling its weight. Write to us and you reach people who build the product themselves and know the scene, not a call center reading from a script.
