Picking between Apex Hosting and Supercraft for Palworld
Where Apex Hosting is genuinely strong
Premium-brand Palworld host with the same custom panel and 24/7 live-chat support that built their Minecraft reputation. Free dedicated IP and free subdomain at every tier. Good fit if your group already runs other game servers on Apex and wants one bill plus one panel for everything, or if you want guided modpack-style installs over raw config tuning.
What Palworld hosters tell us they switched away from
Palworld entry pricing is not displayed without an account, making per-slot comparison annoying. The one-click installer model adds less value for Palworld than it does for Minecraft (the modding ecosystem is smaller and most config tuning is PalWorldSettings.ini edits anyway). Pricing tends to sit above the budget hosts at equivalent slot counts, and the custom panel locks you in if you later want to migrate.
Palworld-specific: what actually matters on the server side
Palworld is CPU-bound during AI ticks and large-base physics, so RAM headroom matters less than guaranteed CPU cores. The standard advice of 8 GB for 16 players is correct only if those CPU cycles are dedicated rather than shared. Supercraft assigns dedicated cores with no idle suspension, and gives you direct PalWorldSettings.ini access via SFTP so you can tune day length, taming speed, and base limits without going through a panel form.
Move regions like changing a setting
If your community moves from EU to NA, you swap the region in one click — no refund, no re-purchase, no IP change for whitelist purposes. Apex Hosting requires cancelling and starting fresh.
Edit files like you’d edit them on your own machine
Full FTP, full file manager, no “premium tier” upsell to access your own Palworld configs. Run the mods you want, edit the configs you want, backup whenever you want.
7-day refund, plain English
If it’s not what you expected, you get your money back in the first 7 days. No pro-rating clauses, no “service usage credits”, no support ticket bouncing.
Common questions from Apex Hosting customers
Can I migrate my existing Apex Hosting Palworld world?
Yes. Download your save / world directory from Apex Hosting via their FTP or backup feature, then upload it into Supercraft via our file manager before first start. Most Palworld migrations take under 10 minutes.
Why is Supercraft cheaper for the same slot count?
Because we don’t break out the things you assumed were included — DDoS, file access, region swap, automated backups — into add-on tiers. The price you see on the plan card is the price you pay.
Do you support the same Palworld mods / mod loaders that Apex Hosting does?
Yes. Palworld mod support is community-driven, not host-specific. As long as the mod runs on a self-hosted dedicated server, it runs on Supercraft. We give you direct file access to install whatever the modding scene supports.
What if my server isn’t fast enough?
Upgrade in-place — slots, RAM, CPU priority — without losing your world. If the upgraded plan still doesn’t fit, the 7-day money-back applies to the whole subscription, not just the upgrade.
