This guide provides instructions and important notices for canceling your game server service. All data on the server will be deleted immediately upon cancellation completion, so please be sure to back up any necessary data beforehand.

v2.0 Updated May 29, 2026 Reading time approximately 5 minutes

Important Notice

Data recovery after cancellation is technically impossible. Based on §11 of the Terms of Service, the game server instance will be deleted immediately upon submission of a cancellation request, and all data on the server (save data, configuration files, and panel-side backups) will be lost.

Essential Checklist Before Cancellation

Before proceeding with cancellation, you must complete the following:

  • Obtain a full backup using the “Backup” feature in the game panel
  • Download the created backup file to your local environment
  • Download important files such as save data individually (optional)
  • Verify that downloaded files are not corrupted
Be sure to verify the contents of downloaded files in your local environment before proceeding. After cancellation is complete, it will be technically impossible to retrieve additional data.

Cancellation Types and Refunds

You may select one of the following cancellation methods:

METHOD A

Immediate Cancellation

The game server instance will be deleted immediately upon submission of a cancellation request through the client portal.

Refund
The unused period equivalent will be credited to your account as BESTNET account credit, which can be applied to our other services.

METHOD B

Cancellation at End of Billing Period

You may continue to use the server normally until the end of the current billing period, at which point the service will automatically terminate.

Refund
None. The billed period will be used in full.

Cash refunds are only available within the “72-hour refund guarantee” period as defined in §9 of the Terms of Service. For details, please refer to the Terms of Service.
