Connect your website and Minecraft accounts

Cube Survival uses passwordless email access. Visit the player sign-in page, enter your email, and use the six-digit code delivered to your inbox. In the dashboard, select Connect Minecraft. The dashboard creates a one-time /link command that expires after ten minutes.

Join the game and run the command exactly as displayed. Never share the command or email code. Once connected, validated purchases can be delivered to the correct Minecraft identity.

Protect your first build

Choose a suitable location before investing in a large base. Use the land-claim tools provided by GriefPrevention, confirm the claim boundaries, and grant trust only to players you know. The land claim guide explains good claim planning and collaboration habits.

Connection troubleshooting

The server address does not resolve

Check spelling and remove spaces. The correct hostname is iron1.cubesurvival.com. DNS or public ingress maintenance may also temporarily affect access.

Java reports an incompatible version

Open the launcher installations menu and use a version supported by the current Paper server release.

Bedrock cannot connect

Confirm that you entered port 19132, not the Java port. Some consoles restrict adding external servers and may require platform-specific network steps.

The link command expired

Return to the dashboard and generate a fresh command. Link codes are intentionally valid for only ten minutes.
