What you get for voting
Voting is the single best free activity on Sunrise. Each day you vote on all the listing sites, you receive a Vote Key — and votes accumulate toward rank progression. At 420 total votes you reach Moon rank, which includes /fly.
In short: it's the cheapest path to /fly on the server.
How to vote
Run the in-game command:
/vote
This opens links to each voting site for the server you're on. Click each one, enter your username, complete the vote, and repeat until you've hit every site that day.
All sites in one day is the requirement for a Vote Key. Voting on three of four sites won't trigger the reward.
Sites for SMP
- Planet Minecraft
- Minecraft Server List
- Minecraft MP
- Find MC Server
Sites for Skyblock
- Planet Minecraft
- Minecraft Server List
- Minecraft MP
Bedrock players: include the dot
Your Bedrock username starts with a . prefix on the server (e.g., .YourName). Vote sites need that exact name including the dot. If you skip the dot, the vote registers but the reward goes to nobody.
Offline voting
You can vote while logged out. Rewards are held until your next login. Useful if you want to vote from your phone during the day and pick up your keys when you next play.
When something goes wrong
"I voted on all sites but didn't get my key."
Two common causes:
- You missed one site — check that you actually completed the captcha/redirect on every link.
- PlanetMinecraft sometimes drops votes. This is a known external issue, not a server bug. Message a staff member with your username and the date — they can manually grant the missing key.
"My username didn't show up on the vote site."
Bedrock players: did you include the . prefix? Java players: did you spell it with the same capitalization as your account? Vote sites are case-sensitive.
A daily routine that works
If you want the path to Moon, set this up once and forget it:
- Bookmark the four vote pages on your phone or browser.
- Vote every morning while you're checking messages.
- Open Sunrise once a day to collect the keys (or let them stack — offline voting holds them).
At ~1 vote per site per day per server, you're earning 4 keys/day on SMP alone. That adds up fast.
