Premium Servers

To access Premium Servers, your Rust Steam inventory must be valued at $15 or more. This includes items from the Permanent Store, such as building skins, décor packs, and hazmat skins, as well as any other tradable Rust items with an attached value.

Currently we do not include Rust's standalone DLC such as Instruments, Sunburn and Voice Props packs (this may change in future).

• Premium Servers will only be visible if your account meets the $15 threshold.
• Premium Servers will show a Premium (and clickable) Tag to provide details about eligibility.
• The $15 threshold may change over time, and we may introduce additional factors to refine premium status.
• Depending on Steam traffic, brand new purchases or skin trades may take up to 20 minutes to reflect onto the Premium Server authorization. 
• If you have premium status, it'll display on your avatar on the menu menu

If we encounter any abuse or exploitation of Premium servers or the market, user accounts will be banned. All trades of Rust skins are logged. 

The in-game server browser has a filter addition to help you find the new Premium servers.

To check eligibility, click on any “Premium” tag for any server with it enabled.  This will open up the eligibility panel.

You can do a manual self-check by clicking the refresh button next to your name. You will only be able to use this button once every 60 seconds. 

Please remember there may be some delay on verification for newly purchased or traded skins.
