FAQ

What versions does it support?

Spigot and Paper 1.15 and newer.

How do I get paid?

Earnings accrue in your dashboard. Request a payout once you reach the US$5 threshold.

What data does the plugin collect?

Per-server impression and click counts, plus the clicking player's Minecraft UUID and IP address (used to validate clicks and prevent fraud). No chat, no inventories, no other personal data.

Can players tell it's an ad?

Yes — banners are clearly branded. We don't disguise them as in-game content.

How are clicks validated?

Clicks are HMAC-signed in-world and validated server-side. Fraud detection lives in the cloud, not the plugin.

Can I remove it anytime?

Yes. Delete the jar or the item frames and ads stop immediately.
