PulsePlugin vs Thunder Plugins

PulsePlugin is a marketplace for game server plugins for Minecraft, Rust, and Hytale, serving both buyers and plugin developers. Each plugin receives human review before listing, and purchases provide immediate file downloads. Buyers receive an encrypted, obfuscated build tied to their license key; built-in licensing covers activation, heartbeats, offline grace, and server limits. Developers can set free, one-time, subscription, or pay-what-you-want pricing. Documentation describes a REST API for products, search, and licensing, including endpoints and webhooks. The free plan allows up to three free plugin listings, with basic analytics and community support. Seller accounts list unlimited plugins, full analytics, Stripe Connect payouts, and a 70% revenue share, with monthly payouts via Stripe. Stripe processing fees apply separately at approximately 2.9% plus CHF 0.30 per transaction. The site describes installation as placing files in oxide/. PulsePlugin is available on the web and through an API; sign-in supports GitHub, Discord, Google, or email and password. The operator is a Swiss sole proprietorship represented by Loïc Kalbermatter.

Thunder Plugins is a free collection of plugins for Minecraft Paper servers. It covers teleport requests (TPA), economy and shops, and custom enchantments. TPA plugins provide clickable request buttons in chat. Economy plugins include shops and a configurable currency, while enchantment plugins use rarity tiers. The maker says the plugins are built and tested directly against Paper, and each .jar is tested and versioned. Every listing gives the exact plugin version and supported Minecraft version. Downloads are plain .jar files: place one in the server’s plugins folder and restart the server to load it. No launcher, installer, or account is required. The service is listed for self-hosted and web use, with Paper as the specified server platform. Its access model is free-only, including a free plan, so no paid tier is described.
