Move your Minecraft server from Aternos

Moving is three steps: get the files out of Aternos, put them here with the importer, point your players at the new address. Your world, plugins or mods and configs come along; nothing is retyped.

1. Get the files out of Aternos

Aternos has no FTP, but it lets you download the world: in the Aternos panel open Worlds and download the world as a zip. Note the software (Paper, Forge, Fabric, vanilla), the exact version and the list of plugins or mods from its Plugins and Mods pages. Plugins and mods are reinstalled here from Resources in a click each, so the world zip is the only file you need.

2. Bring them here

Create the server on FadeHost with the same software and Minecraft version as the old one. Do not start it yet.
More for this server, Import from another host (also under Settings, Import).
Choose SFTP or FTP and enter the old host’s details, or upload the zip you downloaded. Pick what to pull: the world, plugins or mods, configs.
Start the server and read the console. A plugin that stored the old address or an absolute path needs a config edit.

3. Switch the address

Players take the new address from the server page, or from the join page you share. A custom domain moves by changing its SRV record, or by connecting the domain in Settings, General, Your own domain. Keep Aternos for a day while people switch, then cancel it.

What is different here

No queue, no ads and no sleeping until you choose it: Sleep when empty is a setting you control, and the wake takes about a minute.
A free FadeHost server is 2 GB and runs a plain or plugin server; modpacks want the trial’s 8 GB or a paid server. See Allocate RAM.
Backups run on their own and restores are one click.
