17 questionsWhat is PixelEast?
PixelEast is a modern digital marketplace for Minecraft and Hytale where you can buy and sell plugins, builds, server setups, textures, models, configs, and other digital content. Every product goes through our review process, and ratings, reviews, and verified creator profiles make it easy to find quality content for your server or earn money from your own creations.
How does PixelEast work?
Browse Minecraft and Hytale products by category, pay securely by card or PayPal, and download your files instantly after checkout. Every purchase is tied to your account as a licence, so you can re-download files and receive product updates anytime. Selling works just as easily. Becoming a creator is free, you upload your products, they pass a quality review, and you earn money from every sale.
Is PixelEast safe?
Yes. All payments are handled by trusted providers such as Stripe and PayPal, we never store your card details, and your data is stored securely using modern encryption algorithms. Every product is checked by our team before it goes on sale, and public reviews and ratings on every product help you buy with confidence. If anything ever goes wrong, our support team is here to help.
How to sell on PixelEast?
Selling on PixelEast is easy and completely free. Just accept the Creator Terms on the Become a creator page in your profile and you can start submitting and selling your products right away.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept PayPal, credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Alipay, and local payment methods such as UPI, depending on your region. All payments are processed securely through Stripe or PayPal, and all prices on PixelEast are listed in EUR (€).
Do you offer refunds?
Because all products are digital and delivered instantly, purchases are generally not refundable once the files have been downloaded. If a product is broken or does not work as described, contact our support team and we will handle it, every complaint gets a response. In line with our Purchase Terms, a defective product entitles you to a fix, a reasonable discount, or your money back.
How do I download my purchases?
Your files are available for download immediately after checkout. You can also re-download any product you own at any time from the Licences page in your profile, together with all product updates released by the creator.
What payment methods are available for withdrawal?
Creators can withdraw their available balance via PayPal or bank transfer (IBAN/SWIFT). You can set up your preferred method in the Creator Dashboard. Withdrawal requests are reviewed and processed by our team.
Are there any withdrawal (payout) fees?
PixelEast does not charge any withdrawal fee. We take nothing for paying out your balance. The only amount deducted is the payment provider's processing fee (for example the PayPal or bank transfer fee) for sending the money to you. You can preview the exact payout amount before confirming using the payout calculator in your Account Settings.
Is there a minimum payout amount?
Yes. You can request a payout once your available balance reaches €25. Above that amount, you can withdraw whenever you want via PayPal or bank transfer.
How much commission does PixelEast take?
PixelEast charges a flat 6.9% commission from each sale. On top of that, the standard payment gateway fee (charged by the payment processor such as Stripe or PayPal for handling the transaction) is also deducted. There are no other hidden fees.
How long does it take to approve my product?
Product reviews on PixelEast are very fast. Most products are approved within 3 hours, and it never takes more than a day. Every submission goes through an automated pre-screening followed by a manual review by our team.
How does the product review process work?
Each product goes through two steps. First, an automated pre-screening flags potential issues, then a team member makes the final approval or rejection decision. No product is ever rejected automatically. If anything is wrong with your submission, our staff will always let you know exactly what it is in a message attached to the review result, so you can fix it and resubmit.
How does the default product sorting algorithm work?
Products are ranked by a combination of relevance, rating, sales, downloads, recency of updates, and engagement (reviews, discussions). This ensures quality, actively maintained products rank higher while new products still get fair visibility.
How does "Featured Products" on the homepage work?
Featured products are selected automatically by our relevancy sorting algorithm. The top-ranking products based on quality, engagement, and other ranking factors are displayed in the Featured section on the homepage, there's no paid promotion involved.
What does the "New" tag on products mean?
The "New" tag is automatically shown on products published within the last 7 days and removed once that period passes. No action needed from Creators.
