Pterodactyl Billing Panel by BillingServ

Automate game server billing, provisioning, and customer management for your Pterodactyl hosting business. No manual invoicing. No chasing payments. Just billing that runs itself.

What is the Pterodactyl billing panel?

Pterodactyl is the most popular open-source game server management panel, used by thousands of hosting providers worldwide. It gives you a solid interface for managing game servers, users, and resources across multiple nodes, but it has no billing layer built in.

A Pterodactyl billing panel is what fills that gap. It connects Pterodactyl to a billing system so that server creation, suspension, renewal, and termination all happen automatically based on whether a customer has paid. BillingServ is that billing system, and it handles the whole thing without you needing WHMCS or custom code.

Pterodactyl supports over 20 game engines including Minecraft, CS2, Rust, ARK, and Valheim. It's a strong foundation for a game hosting business. BillingServ is what makes it ready to sell.

How BillingServ powers your Pterodactyl billing

BillingServ connects directly to the Pterodactyl API. When a customer buys a game server package, BillingServ creates the server for them. When a renewal comes up, the invoice goes out and payment is collected automatically. If someone doesn't pay, their server gets suspended. Once they do, it comes back up. You don't need to touch any of it.

Your customers get a branded portal to check invoices, manage payment methods, and keep track of their servers. You get reporting on revenue, renewals, and server usage so you know where your business stands.

A Pterodactyl billing panel that isn't WHMCS

A lot of game hosting businesses end up on WHMCS because it was the only real option. It works, but it's expensive, complicated to maintain, and the interface feels like it hasn't changed in years. BillingServ gives you the same core functionality without the licensing costs or the headaches.

It's straightforward to set up and simple to run day to day. Clean interface, solid API, and integrations that work without a lot of fiddling. If you're running a game hosting business today, it fits a lot better than software built for a different era.

BillingServ includes Pterodactyl integration in all plans. No add-on costs, no renewal fees for the module itself.

Modern, clean interface

API-first billing

BillingServ's API lets you automate anything that isn't already handled out of the box.
