This page describes everything INVASION offers for money, what each item does, and the rules we hold ourselves to. It exists so that players, and Bohemia Interactive, can see exactly how the server is monetized.
Store status:
Closed
- Opening soon - stay tuned on our Discord for the launch date. While the store is closed nothing on this page is for sale, and no payment is accepted.
1. The server is free to play
INVASION is a private-shard DayZ server. Anyone who owns DayZ can join, play, build, raid and trade without spending anything. There is no paid-only server, no paid-only content, and no rule or setting that differs for paying players. Every purchase below is optional.
2. What we sell
Three things, all delivered automatically through our store using Stripe. Nothing is sold in game, through Discord, or by staff directly.
- Priority queue. When the server is full, priority players join the login queue ahead of the standard queue. That is the whole effect: it changes how long you wait to get in, and nothing about what happens once you are in. Sold in fixed durations; it expires on its own and is not automatically renewed.
- Clan tag color. Lets a clan leader set one custom color for their whole clan tag in the chat display, with unlimited color changes. Cosmetic only - it changes the color of text, and nothing else. The clan system itself is available to every player for free; the purchase is only the color.
- Supporter tag. A one-time purchase that adds a gold [Supporter] label in front of the player's name in the in-game global chat, ahead of any clan tag. It is a thank-you marker for players who choose to help fund the server: a text label, and nothing else. It never expires, applies on every INVASION server, and is tied to the Steam account that bought it.
3. Prices
Current prices, in USD. These are the same prices shown at checkout.
- Priority Queue — $14.99 for 1 month (Priority queue)
- Priority Queue — $37.99 for 3 months (Priority queue)
- Colored Clan Tag — $44.99 (Clan tag color)
- Supporter Tag — $99.99 (Supporter tag)
4. What we do not sell
- No weapons, gear, vehicles, building materials, currency, or any in-game item.
- No stat boosts, loot advantages, protected zones, extra base limits, or anything that changes how the game plays.
- No admin actions - no teleports, spawns, restores, or rule exceptions for paying players.
- No access to the server, its map, or its features that a non-paying player does not have.
Priority queue affects only the order in which players are admitted when the server is full. Clan tag colors and the Supporter tag affect only the look of a text label in chat. None of them gives any player an advantage over another once in game.
5. How purchases are handled
- Payments are processed by Stripe. We never see or store card details.
- Delivery is automatic, usually within seconds of payment, to the Steam account signed in at checkout. Details are in our Fulfillment Policy.
- Purchases are recorded to the buyer's account and visible on their Profile page, with a receipt sent by Stripe.
- Refunds, corrections and chargebacks are handled as set out in the Fulfillment Policy and Terms of Service. A refunded or disputed purchase is removed automatically.
- A purchase gives no protection from moderation. Players who break the server rules can be temporarily or permanently banned like anyone else; a ban is not refunded, and a permanently banned account loses everything bought for it. Banned accounts cannot buy from the store.
- Support runs through tickets in our Discord server.
6. Donations and sponsorship
We do not currently take donations or run sponsorships or in-game advertising. If that changes, it will be listed here first.
7. Rules we follow
INVASION's monetization is designed to comply with Bohemia Interactive's server monetization rules for DayZ: only perks that do not affect gameplay are sold, the server remains freely accessible with identical rules for everyone, and nothing sold conflicts with Bohemia's or any third party's rights.
Every third-party mod running on INVASION is used within the terms its author has set. Where a mod's Workshop page does not already grant permission to repack or run it, we asked the author and obtained it before adding the mod. Authors who ask to be credited are credited in our Workshop pack description.
INVASION is an independent community server and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Bohemia Interactive. Every purchase on this site is made from the INVASION community, not from Bohemia Interactive, and Bohemia Interactive does not endorse, support or guarantee any of it. Bohemia's server monetization rules and the DayZ End User License Agreement apply to everyone on the server regardless of any purchase.
