3-day free trial · no credit card

3-day free trial with no credit card: Minecraft and game servers, Discord bots, web hosting and email

Artaun Hosting is a French hosting provider that lets you try its services free for 3 days (72 hours), with no credit card. 110 plans are covered: one server for each of our 107 games (Minecraft Java, ARK: Survival Evolved, Palworld, Rust, FiveM and more), Discord bot hosting, web hosting and professional email, all on servers located in Paris, France. When the trial ends, you keep the service by paying for the plan (from €0.85 per month) and everything stays in place. If you do nothing, it stops and nothing is charged.

Free trial rules

  • Duration : 3 days, that is 72 hours, starting when the service is created.
  • Payment : No credit card or other payment method is asked for to start. Nothing is charged when the trial ends.
  • Account : You need an Artaun customer account, which is free. You create it when you start the trial.
  • Eligible plans : The entry plan (the cheapest one) of the Eco range of each game, plus the entry plan for Discord bots, web hosting and professional email. That makes 110 plans, all listed below. There is no trial on VPS or reseller plans.
  • Limit : One trial per plan and per customer account. The number of trials running at the same time is limited: if every slot for a plan is taken, the trial page asks you to come back later.
  • What you get : The same service as the paid version, hosted in Paris: the resources of the plan, the same panel in the client area, the same tools. On a game server you can install mods, plugins or a modpack.
  • When it ends : To keep the service, pay for the plan from the client area: on a game server, the world, settings and mods stay exactly as they are. If you do nothing, the service stops.
  • Price afterwards : When you start, you pick the billing period that will apply only if you keep the service. The monthly price of each plan is shown in the table. Every plan is contract-free.

How to start a trial

  1. Pick a plan in the table below and click Try. The same button is on each game's page.
  2. Log in or create your Artaun account.
  3. The trial page shows the plan, the trial length and the price that would apply afterwards. Confirm: there is nothing to pay.
  4. For a game, answer two or three questions (server type, version). The server is created while you watch, within a few minutes for most games.

Frequently asked questions

What to know before you start a trial.

Contact support
Do I need a credit card for the free trial?

No. Artaun Hosting does not ask for a credit card or any other payment method to start a trial. A free customer account is all you need. Nothing is charged when the trial ends.

What happens after the 3-day trial?

The trial lasts 3 days, that is 72 hours. At the end there are two cases: you pay for the plan from the client area and keep the service as it is, or you do nothing and it stops. There is nothing to cancel and no charge.

Can I keep my world after the trial?

Yes, if you pay for the plan: the world, settings and mods stay exactly as they are and you carry on with the same server. If you let the trial end without paying, the server stops. If your files matter to you, download them from the panel (file manager or SFTP) before the trial ends.

Which games can I try for free?

107 games have a trial plan at Artaun Hosting, including Minecraft Java, ARK: Survival Evolved, Palworld, Rust, FiveM. For each game, the trial covers the entry plan of the Eco range. The full list, with the resources and price of each plan, is in the table on this page.

Can I install mods or plugins during the trial?

Yes. The trial server is the same as the paid one: same panel in the client area, console, files, SFTP, and mod, plugin or modpack installation for the games that support them. The resources (RAM, vCores, disk) are those of the trial plan.

Can I try a VPS for free?

No. There is no free trial on VPS or reseller plans. The trial covers game servers, Discord bots, web hosting and professional email. VPS plans remain contract-free and can be paid monthly.

How many trials can I start?

One trial per plan and per customer account. Each game has its own trial plan. The number of trials running at the same time at Artaun is limited: if every slot for a plan is taken, the trial page asks you to come back later.

How long until the trial server is ready?

A few minutes for most games: after two or three questions (server type, version), the server is created automatically and its address appears in the panel. Large Steam games such as ARK or Rust take longer to download.

The easiest way is to try it

3 days to judge for yourself, with no credit card. If the service suits you, you keep it as it is.
