What is FR Guard?
FR Guard is a resource for your FiveM server that does one very specific thing:
When someone tries to connect, it checks on FiveRank whether that player has a bad reputation. If they do, they don't get in.
That simple.
Why should you care?
- ❌ No more repeat offenders. If they get banned on another server in the network, they can't join yours.
- ✅ Doesn't scan the player's PC. No false positives.
- ✅ Doesn't slow down your server. Each check takes less than 200 ms.
- ✅ Zero maintenance. Install it and it updates itself.
- ✅ Native whitelist. Gate access behind an application and approval process — managed from the web panel (v1.9+).
- ✅ Free. Forever.
What does the player see?
When someone connects, they briefly see a card:
- If their reputation is clean → "Welcome!" and they enter.
- If their reputation is negative → "Access denied" with an appeal link.
All in the player's language (Spanish, English, Portuguese, French or German).
What if FiveRank goes down?
No worries. By default, if the FiveRank API doesn't respond, your server keeps running normally and lets players in. Nobody gets locked out because of a problem on our end.
Who's behind this?
FiveRank is the first social reputation platform for FiveM. FR Guard is our gift to the community: 100% free, no tricks. Our only condition is that you keep the FiveRank branding visible on the connection cards.
