What it is

  • Voice
  • TeamSpeak
  • Gamers
  • Clans

TeamSpeak 3 is low-latency voice chat for gamers, clans and teams. Channels, permissions, passwords and call recording are configured on your own server.

Your own server on a VPS isn't bound by someone else's limits and gives a stable ping. Without a license key you get one virtual server with 32 slots.

The command runs the official teamspeak Docker image; data is stored in a separate volume.

  • Low voice latency
  • Channels, groups and permissions
  • File transfer
  • ServerQuery for bots and automation
  • Free for up to 32 slots

TeamSpeak 3 FAQ

Didn’t find an answer? Message @ExpressHost_SupportBot.

How many people can connect?

Without a license, 32 slots on one virtual server. 1 vCPU and 2 GB is more than enough for that.

How do I update the server?

Run docker pull teamspeak, remove the container and start it with the same command. Channels and permissions are kept in the ts3-data volume.

Where is the data stored?

In the ts3-data Docker volume (folder /var/ts3server): database, logs and files.
