| World AI reports | 1 per day | 100 per month |
| Realm groups you can own | 1 | 5 |

In-game perks
Root-Memberships syncs your cloud Pro / Lifetime flag to LuckPerms on join. Weekly award Pro uses the same [Pro] badge but is temporary — see below.
Pro (subscription or redeemed month)
[Pro] chat prefix badge/nick and /hat cosmetics- Colored & formatted chat
- Colored signs
- Custom join message
- 5 homes (
/sethome) — default players get 3
- Governance vote weight ×2 (pay to steer — not P2W)
Lifetime (after voucher redeem)
- Everything in Pro, plus:
[Lifetime] chat prefix badge- RGB chat colors
- 8 homes
- Governance vote weight ×3 (or ×5 if you also have active Pro)
Survival shortcuts like /heal, /feed, and /repair stay disabled for all players — membership is not pay-to-win.
How checkout works
- Link first — on
play.rootmc.net run /link, then finish at rootmc.net/verify.
- Pick a plan above and complete Stripe checkout. Enter the beneficiary’s exact Minecraft username.
- Subscription — Pro activates on the linked account within a few minutes while the sub is active.
- Vouchers — claim the item from
/vault, then right-click to redeem. Trade vouchers freely until redeemed.
- Check status — in-game
/memberships status or sign into the RootMC app with the same linked account.
Questions? Ask in Discord or run /pro in-game for the same checkout links.
Earn Pro free
Separate from paid plans: each Sunday the #1 Top Active Player (most weekly linked playtime) earns one week of Pro on their linked account — app perks plus the in-game [Pro] prefix. Top 3 get the [Top Active Player] prefix without automatic Pro.
Paid Pro, voucher months, and Lifetime are never overwritten by the weekly award. Details: weekly awards guide.
FAQ
Can I gift membership to someone else?
Yes — enter their Minecraft username at checkout. One-month and Lifetime vouchers can sit in their vault until they redeem. Subscriptions apply directly to whoever’s linked to that username.
What if checkout username doesn’t match a linked player?
Delivery waits until that username is linked. Link before buying when possible.
Subscription vs voucher — which should I pick?
Subscribe for hassle-free ongoing Pro. Vouchers are better for gifts, stacking months, or trading before redeem.
Does weekly award Pro stack with paid?
Life members and active paid Pro are untouched. Award Pro only fills a gap when you don’t already have paid access.
Where does my money go?
Membership support helps run RootMC — hosting, development, and community tooling. It is separate from in-game Gold (G), which stays earned in the closed-loop economy.
