| Free tier | The core MCGateway transfer service is free and is intended to remain free. unit none; metered on unstated |

| Price | USD 0 |
| Per-object cap | not applicable |
| Retention | not applicable |
| Egress | No byte allowance is published and none would apply: the service is a bot the player friends, not a port.; ingress: none free_allowance: none published |
| Identity | email An Xbox Live account to friend the bot: 'Add an available MCGateway bot, wait for the automatic friend acceptance, then join MCGateway Hub.' No Microsoft password is asked for. |
| Limits |
|
| Binding | none There is no public address or port to meter, so no byte allowance is ever reached. The gate is the shape of the service: a player joins a bot's world and is transferred from inside the game. |
| Interface | unknown No API is described; access is through the Minecraft Friends tab and a Discord for server-owner tickets. |
| Tooling | Minecraft client only; no agent, no CLI |
| Composes with | Composes with any Bedrock host, including one behind another vendor's UDP tunnel, but adds nothing itself. |
| Reliability | Friend acceptance 'usually takes around 20 to 30 seconds and can take up to 60 seconds'; a stale Friends list needs a game restart; the bot fleet is the only path. |
| Notes | This is the Bedrock-specific answer was asked to find, and it is the inverse of what was wanted: a free way for a console player to reach an arbitrary Bedrock server, with no free public UDP endpoint handed to the server owner. It solves the console's missing address box, not the host's missing port. |
| Evidence rung | documented The join flow is quoted in full on the front page; whether a server owner can obtain any address was checked on the front page only, and the detailed guide was not read. |
