Running a game server costs money. Not if you split it.

KeepAlive is the community pot that splits a game server's hosting cost across the people who play on it.

Every month, the same struggle

Most community servers run because one person pays the hosting out of pocket. Players often don't even realise it. And the day that person gives up, the server dies.

  • ✕ The owner pays €15, 50 / month, alone.
  • ✕ Random tips (PayPal…) are opaque and clunky.
  • ✕ One month short on budget = server off, community scattered.

The fix: a community pot

We give players a clear, transparent way to fund their server. The goal = the real hosting cost. Every euro goes to the server, credited to the owner. Nobody wonders where the money went.

How much does a game server cost per month?

Minecraft, Rust, ARK, Valheim, Palworld: the real monthly cost of a game server, what makes it vary, and how to get your community to fund it.

Made by Oxygenserv

KeepAlive started at Oxygenserv, a game-server host. We kept seeing the same story: a server shutting down for lack of budget, one admin paying alone until they burn out, players happy to help but no simple way to do it. Splitting the bill, asking for money, tracking who paid, all of it was a pain. So we built the tool that was missing.
