  <passes>
    <fact>Every server has its own pass: a day (24 hours), a week (168 hours) or a calendar month, priced by the server's RAM and paid up front. Buy again and the time adds on.</fact>
    <fact>At checkout every pass has two buttons and you pick one: one renews the pass until you cancel, the other pays once. Renewal stops with one click.</fact>
    <fact>Bought with renewal, a week or month pass of 4 GB or more costs 10% less than the same pass paid once, on the first payment and every renewal, while renewal stays on. At checkout each of the two buttons shows the amount it charges, and neither is chosen for you. Stopping renewal is free and takes nothing back: the pass you've paid for runs to its end at the price you paid. Any pass paid for once is at the pay-once price. A day pass, or any pass under 4 GB, costs the same either way.</fact>
    <fact>A pass is time on the clock, whether the server is on or off. You pay for the passes you buy, and nothing else.</fact>
    <fact>When a pass ends the server stops, and its files and settings are kept for 30 days: buy a pass in that time and everything is where you left it.</fact>
    <fact more="https://galeforcehosting.net/refunds">Within 14 days of your first payment for a pass, you can cancel and get back the unused time.</fact>
    <fact>A server's prices are locked for 12 months from its first payment, and any change is announced 30 days ahead.</fact>
    <fact>Passes are for adults, 18 and over.</fact>
  </passes>
  <included>
    <fact>Every size comes with the full panel (console, graphs, files and SFTP) and support from a person.</fact>
    <fact>Download your server's files any time from the panel's Files page, as one .zip or over SFTP.</fact>
    <fact more="https://galeforcehosting.net/games/minecraft-java">On Minecraft Java servers (Paper, Fabric, Forge and NeoForge) the panel searches Modrinth and installs mods, or plugins on Paper, each with the ones it needs. It lists everything installed and updates it.</fact>
    <fact>The panel's Version &amp; loader screen switches a Minecraft Java server to another loader or Minecraft version. It keeps a copy of every file on the server, world included, for 7 days, and Undo puts it all back.</fact>
    <fact>Every other game that takes mods says on its own page how they go in.</fact>
  </included>
  <suits more="https://galeforcehosting.net/how-we-price">Galeforce is built for groups that play now and then: buy a day or a week for game night, pay once, and pay nothing between sessions. Groups that play most weeks get the most from the month pass.</suits>
