Pricing and distribution
The plugin is distributed as a free option. Check the official page for the current download source and license.
What to check before using it
- No special warning beyond the normal rule: verify the current official documentation and test on a backup/staging server before production.
Also check the plugin's current dependency list, migration notes and supported server versions on the official page before changing a production server.
Operational caution: An economy plugin’s balance data is production state. Changing the economy provider without migration can result in missing money or duplicate balances.
Common questions
What does XConomy do?
Standalone economy provider for balances, payments and Vault-compatible integrations.
Is XConomy a plugin or a mod?
XConomy is listed here because it is used as a server plugin in its supported plugin environment. Some projects also publish builds for other platforms; use the official download page to choose the correct platform build.
Do players need to install it?
Most server plugins run server-side and do not require players to install the same JAR. Features that rely on resource packs, Bedrock bridges or optional client integrations can still change what the player must download or accept.
How do I install it?
Install XConomy on a supported backend and determine whether connected shop/jobs plugins require its economy API or a compatible Vault provider. Back up player balances before importing or switching storage.
How do I know the plugin loaded?
Create two non-operator accounts, transfer a small test amount and confirm both balances after clean restart. Then test one integration that spends or deposits currency.
What if it does not load?
If another plugin reports no economy, check the provider registration and compatible integration rather than resetting player balances. Review database errors and table migrations on a test copy.
