XMCL Together: Cloud Multiplayer, Server Hosting & Troubleshooting Guide
XMCL Together is an online cloud and networking platform built specifically for XMCL. It solves the biggest headaches of modded Minecraft: joining friends through strict firewalls and CGNAT, hosting reliable cloud servers without paying for idle time, and getting instant AI diagnostics for modpack crashes.
🌟 1. What is XMCL Together?
Playing modded Minecraft with friends is often frustrating due to network firewalls (Carrier-Grade NAT / CGNAT), complex port forwarding, and traditional server hosts that charge expensive 24/7 monthly fees even when you only play on weekends.
XMCL Together solves this through three core pillars:
1. Global High-Speed Relay Network (300+ Edge Nodes)
When playing via P2P LAN, if your router or ISP blocks direct peer connections, Together automatically routes your game traffic through Cloudflare high-speed relay edges, delivering low latency and zero complex router configuration.
2. Pay-As-You-Play Cloud Servers
Instead of paying $20–$40 every month for an idle server, Together cloud servers use a fair pay-as-you-play model:
- Low Base Fee: Preserves your world save, server IP, and mod configuration permanently.
- Compute Charged Only When Online: Turn on the server when you and your friends play ($0.06 – $0.12 / running hour).
- Instant Pause: Pause the server when everyone logs off. Charges stop immediately.
3. Built-In AI Diagnostic Copilot
Every Together plan includes access to our AI Copilot to analyze server crash logs, resolve missing mod dependencies, and suggest optimal JVM memory flags.

💳 3. Troubleshooting Payment Failures & Region Errors
When attempting to purchase a plan or top up your account, you might encounter payment checkout errors:
Why Does Payment Fail?
- Regional Payment Processor Restrictions: Our global payment gateway (Creem / Merchant processor) enforces strict fraud prevention and regional compliance checks. If your IP address originates from a restricted or unsupported billing region, the checkout portal will decline the transaction.
- Bank / Card Cross-Border Blocks: Your bank may block international digital transactions or automatic currency conversions.
- ISP / Firewall Blocking Payment Scripts: Regional internet service providers may block payment verification scripts or 3D Secure frames.
🛠️ How to Fix Payment Errors:
Step 1: Use a Stable VPN Connection
If the payment gateway refuses to load or declines your transaction due to regional restrictions:
- Enable a reliable VPN and connect to a supported region (such as Germany, United Kingdom, United States, or another EU country).
- Refresh the XMCL Together Checkout Page with the VPN active.
- Complete the checkout process.
Step 2: Enable International Online Payments & 3D Secure
- Open your mobile banking app and ensure that "International Online Transactions" and "Online Purchasing Limits" are enabled.
- Confirm that your card supports 3D Secure (SMS or in-app approval).
Step 3: Clear Browser Cache or Try Incognito
Cached session cookies can occasionally cause checkout token mismatches. Open the Together portal in an Incognito / Private window with your VPN enabled.
🛡️ 4. Security, Privacy & Refund Policy
- PCI-DSS Certified Security: XMCL never stores your credit card numbers, CVV, or banking credentials. All payments are processed through certified international gateways.
- 7-Day Balance Refund: In accordance with our Terms of Service, unspent wallet balance can be refunded within 7 days of deposit upon request.
- Full Privacy Compliance: Together operates in strict compliance with international privacy frameworks (GDPR, Ukraine Data Protection Law, COPPA, PIPL). Diagnostic logs are retained for a maximum of 90 days.
