Terms of use
Short answer: Buying a plugin from MinecraftPlugins.org gives you the right to run it on your own Minecraft servers and to download future updates from your account. It does not transfer ownership of the code, and redistribution is not allowed.
How do you buy and install a plugin, step by step?
In short, you create an account, pay once, download the .jar from your account and drop it into your server's plugins folder. The six steps below cover the whole process, in order.
- Create an account. Sign up with your email address and pick a public username. Your purchases and downloads are tied to that username.
- Choose a plugin. Open the plugins page, read the plugin page and check the supported server software before paying.
- Pay once. Check out with card or PayPal. The payment is a single one-time charge, with no subscription and no per-server fee.
- Download the .jar file. The download unlocks instantly under My Plugins in your account. Newer versions appear in the same place for free.
- Install it on the server. Stop the server, copy the .jar into the plugins/ folder, then start the server again so the plugin generates its files.
- Configure and verify. Edit the generated config.yml, run /plugins in game to confirm the plugin is enabled, then reload or restart once more.
