Terms of Use
Last updated: October 21, 2026
1. Scope
These terms apply to the use of BagelSMP-Market, a private, free community project. By using the site you agree to these terms.
2. No affiliation with BagelSMP or Mojang
BagelSMP-Market is not an official BagelSMP service and is neither operated nor endorsed by the server operators. Minecraft is a trademark of Mojang Synergies AB / Microsoft. The BagelSMP server rules and the Minecraft terms additionally apply; we have no influence on them.
3. Market data without warranty
Auctions, orders, prices, statistics and forecasts are collected and computed automatically. They may be wrong, outdated or incomplete. In-game decisions are made at your own risk. Forecasts are mathematical trend extrapolations, not recommendations.
4. Trading market (vault bot)
The trading market brokers the exchange of in-game items for in-game currency on BagelSMP through an escrow bot (vault). Only virtual game currency and items are traded; trading for real money is excluded and prohibited. Only items approved by the BagelSMP-Market team can be listed; per-item minimum prices and maximum amounts may apply and are shown in the listing form.
Account and verification: to trade you must verify your Minecraft account by sending a one-time code to our bot BagelScout in-game. A verification is valid for 30 days and must then be renewed. Trade only with the verified account. The vault bot only accepts the seller and buyer of the respective trade. Accounts on our scammer list are blocked from trading.
Fees: the buyer pays exactly the listed price. A platform fee is deducted from the seller's payout, currently 2% of the trade value, at least $2,500 in-game currency. The exact fee and payout are shown before you create a listing and are fixed for that trade. If a creator code is used, the creator's share is paid out of our fee, never on top of the price.
Process: the seller deposits the item with the assigned vault bot; a listing only becomes active once the bot has confirmed storage. A buyer's reservation is limited in time. After requesting the purchase in-game, the buyer must pay the exact amount shown within 10 minutes; otherwise the listing becomes available again. If too much or too little is paid, the trade is paused for manual review. Do not send additional money. The item is handed over in-game (teleport request and transfer chest), and the seller is paid after delivery. The bot handles one trade at a time, so waiting times may occur.
Cancellation: a seller can cancel a listing only as long as no buyer has reserved it. If the item is already stored in the vault, it is handed back in-game by our team before the trade is closed. Cancellation is not possible after payment, during delivery or during payout.
A trade is complete only once the bot has confirmed payment and delivery. We strive for reliable operation but cannot rule out outages of the bot, the Minecraft server or rule changes by the server. In such cases we try to return stored items to their owner. Liability for in-game losses is excluded to the extent permitted by law; liability for intent and gross negligence remains unaffected.
We reserve the right to abort trades and exclude users from the trading market on suspicion of fraud, violations of BagelSMP rules or abuse.
4a. Giveaway
The organiser is the operator of this website (see imprint). The prize is $1,000,000 of in-game currency on the BagelSMP Minecraft server.
Anyone who successfully completes at least one trade as buyer or seller through this website's trading market takes part. Each Minecraft account takes part once, regardless of its number of trades. Cancelled or aborted trades do not count. Staff and the operator are excluded.
The draw takes place on September 23, 2026. All trades completed by 11:59 PM US Eastern Time (ET) on that day count.
The winner is drawn at random from all participants, announced on the website and on Discord and notified in-game or via Discord. The prize is paid in-game to the Minecraft account that completed the trade. Payment in real money or exchange is excluded. If the winner does not respond within 14 days, a new winner is drawn.
The giveaway is not affiliated with BagelSMP, Mojang or Microsoft. Participants may be excluded on suspicion of manipulation (e.g. fake trades between own accounts). Recourse to the courts is excluded to the extent permitted by law. Questions: Discord Joel9277.
4a-2. Raffle
The organiser of the raffle on /raffle is the operator of this website (see imprint). Only in-game currency of the BagelSMP Minecraft server is used; tickets cannot be bought, and prizes cannot be paid out or exchanged, with real money. Taking part requires a Minecraft account verified on this website.
A round runs for the time shown on the raffle page (normally 7 days). Tickets are bought by requesting them on the page and then paying the exact amount shown in-game with /pay to our games bot from the verified account. A payment that arrives after the sale ended, or that matches no open request, is sent back. Free tickets are given out as shown on the page (for example daily, for Market+ members, for Discord invites); the daily free ticket needs a BagelSMP account of a minimum age and playtime and is limited to one per device. Free and bought tickets count the same. Tickets cannot be refunded, transferred or moved to another round.
One ticket wins per round. The pot is the start amount we put in plus the ticket sales of the round minus the fee shown on the page; the winner gets the whole pot, paid in-game by our games bot, and any extra prize shown for the round, handed over in-game by our team. If the round has no tickets, nobody wins.
The draw: when a round starts we name the round of the public randomness service drand (League of Entropy) that will draw it. When the sale ends we publish the full ticket list and its SHA-256 hash. The winning ticket is SHA-256 of the drand randomness and the list hash, joined by a colon, read as a number, modulo the number of tickets, plus one. Everyone can check this on the round page.
We may cancel a round (for example after a technical fault or abuse); every bought ticket of that round is then paid back. We may exclude players and void their tickets on suspicion of manipulation, use of several accounts, abuse of free tickets or bugs, or a breach of the BagelSMP rules. The raffle is not affiliated with BagelSMP, Mojang or Microsoft. Recourse to the courts is excluded to the extent permitted by law. Questions: Discord Joel9277.
4b. Builder-Market
On the Builder-Market verified players (buyers) order builds from builders the BagelSMP-Market team approved. Only in-game currency is used; paying for builds with real money is excluded and prohibited.
Price and fee: the buyer sets the builder's price and whether it is negotiable. The order is shown to the builders right away, nothing is paid at that point. As soon as a builder accepts the order, the buyer has 12 hours to pay the price together with the market fee to our bot, which holds the money; otherwise the order is cancelled and anything already paid is sent back. The fee is 2% of the price without insurance and 10% with the Market insurance. The builder receives the price only after the builder said the build is finished and the buyer confirmed the delivery, or after the team decided the case.
Cancellation: as long as no builder has accepted the order, the buyer can cancel it at any time. After a builder accepted it, a cancellation is only possible through our support. A builder has 12 hours after accepting an order to write to the buyer, otherwise the order is open again. A builder works on at most two orders at the same time. An order on which nothing happens for 3 days is closed and anything paid is refunded to the buyer; if the builder already said the build is finished, our team decides instead.
We check the builds a builder shows when applying, but we cannot guarantee that a builder does not pass the buyer's coordinates on to others. If that happens, the Market insurance pays the buyer back 100% of the money paid, after our team checked it. Such a builder loses the builder status for good and can never apply as a builder in any of our networks again.
Buyer and builder can call our team at any time; the order is then under team inspection and our team can write in the chat and decide. If the buyer or the builder breaks these rules, the BagelSMP-Market team bans them for an indefinite time. Both accept this before they create or accept an order.
Coordinates: sharing coordinates or the location of a build, a base or anything else of another player is prohibited everywhere. Sharing them on purpose ends the builder status for good.
4c. Advertising
Players can buy a banner ad on pages of this website on our Discord server. The ad is shown under the header of the chosen pages and is marked as an ad. Only one ad runs on a page at a time; later orders wait in a queue and start at the earliest time all chosen pages are free. Prices are set in our price list (per page and day, all pages have their own price); the package (Standard, Pro, Enterprise) multiplies the price. Only in-game currency is used; paying for ads with real money is excluded and prohibited.
Our team checks every order before it can be paid, in particular the text and the link. After the approval you have 24 hours to pay the exact price ingame with /pay to our payment bot from the Minecraft account linked to your Discord account; otherwise the order expires and the time slot is free again. A link button (Enterprise only) may only lead to the sites on our list of allowed domains.
Ads must not contain insults, hate, sexual or violent content, scams or misleading promises, real money trading, personal data of other people, coordinates, advertising for other Minecraft servers or anything that breaks the rules of BagelSMP or the law. We may reject an order without giving reasons and remove an ad that breaks these rules at any time; a removed ad is not refunded.
Once an ad has started, there is no refund, except when we cancel it for a reason that is not a breach of these rules; then you get the price back in full. Before the start, our team can cancel a paid order on request and refund it. We do not guarantee a number of visitors or clicks.
5. Disputes and evidence
We only take action where there is proof. This applies to every kind of claim, a problem with a trade through our vault bot or a scam report. The person making the claim must provide the evidence (for example the trade ID, screenshots or recordings of the agreement, the payment and the handover, with visible player names, amounts and times).
Every claim is checked against our own records, such as the trade, payment and delivery events logged by our vault bot. If the evidence provided and our own logs do not show clear and unambiguous proof, we are unfortunately not willing to take any action, in particular no reimbursement, no reversal of a trade and no measures against other players.
Returning items, reimbursements and other assistance are voluntary goodwill measures of a free community project. There is no entitlement to them beyond the statutory liability for intent and gross negligence. Claims based on falsified or manipulated evidence are rejected and lead to exclusion from the trading market.
Please report problems as soon as possible on Discord (Joel9277), stating the trade ID (if any), both Minecraft names and your evidence.
6. Scammer list
Reports must be truthful and include evidence. False reports lead to exclusion. Entries refer exclusively to game accounts. Reported players may contact us on Discord (Joel9277); every objection is reviewed.
7. Prohibited use
Prohibited: scraping the site beyond ordinary use, attacks on the infrastructure, submitting false reports, impersonating another person, and any use that violates the law or the BagelSMP rules.
7a. Regional availability
No feature of this site is closed for a country or state at the moment.
Before you use the site you confirm our privacy notice once. It explains the cookies, the local storage and the country check.
8. Availability and changes
There is no entitlement to permanent availability. We may change, restrict or discontinue features at any time and amend these terms. The current version is always available on this page.
9. Governing law
The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies. For consumers habitually resident in another country, mandatory consumer protection provisions of that country remain unaffected.
