How It Works
GuildBit works on the idea of free, temporary servers to preserve system
resources, opening up more server slots which aren't being occupied. This helps lower hosting,
resources and bandwidth costs. We are supported by donations and upgrades. Check out some of
our upgrade options for more slots and durations.
GuildBit has been operating and providing free Mumble servers since 2013!
Set a region
Choose a server region closest to your group to minimize latency.
Set a duration
Choose a duration for the server. From 1 to 4 hours. The
less hours you use, the more resources open up for others. :)
Set a password
Password protected servers are required as servers are reused.
Connection Details

directly. The server page also lists users in room and displays the expiration countdown. You may
also extend the server duration up to 3 times!

FAQs
- How is it free?
- Donations and paid upgrades. Thanks for your support!
- Why temporary servers?
- The idea is targeted towards gamers who need a quick Mumble server for their group or raid
without the hassle of setting up their own, or subscribing to a service. The server expires to not
only save on resources, but to free up the slot for others.
- Why only 15 slots?
- Check out the upgrades page if you're looking for more than 15 slots.
- Why can't I use the same port when creating a server?
- Servers are created according to the next port available.
- Why only offer Mumble and not Ventrilo or TeamSpeak?
- Mumble is free and
open-source software. So it doesn't
cost me any licensing fees to host Mumble servers or offer it as a service.
- Do you offer premium upgrades?
- Yes! We now offer server upgrades via Paypal to increase slot count, duration, subchannels
and a SuperUser admin capabilities. Click here to get started.
- What is a SuperUser?
- A SuperUser is an admin account on your Mumble server to grant permissions and roles to users and
groups as well as setting up channels. This feature is only available on upgraded servers.
- Do you plan on offering other methods of payment?
- We're looking into alternate payment options.
