Discord guide

Prepare your server for instant boosts.

Complete these checks before paying. They prevent Discord security settings or anti-raid bots from stopping automated delivery.

Before ordering

Your server must allow new accounts to join immediately through the invite you submit. Complete the required setting first, then check any security bots installed on the server.

  • Set Discord's join method to Invite Only. Do not leave Apply to Join enabled.
  • Temporarily pause bot rules that kick, ban, quarantine or time out newly joined accounts.
  • Make sure the server has not reached Discord's member limit.
If a bot or server rule removes the boost accounts, automated delivery may fail and warranty coverage can be affected.

Turn off Apply to Join

Desktop setting

Discord currently exposes the join-method control in the desktop app. You need the server owner role or permission to manage the server.

  1. 1Open Discord on desktop and select the server.
  2. 2Click the server name at the top-left, then open Server Settings.
  3. 3Open Access in the left sidebar.
  4. 4Under How can people join your server?, select Invite Only.
  5. 5Save the change and keep the server on Invite Only until the order status says Delivered.

If you do not see Access on mobile, use Discord Desktop. View Discord's official instructions.

Check bots that can remove new accounts

You do not normally need to remove the entire bot. Temporarily pause the relevant join protection, verification timeout or automatic kick action.

Bot or systemWhat to checkTemporary action
WickJoin Gate, Join Raid, account-age, no-avatar, quarantine, kick or ban actionsPause the matching filter or set its action to log-only during delivery.
Beemo / Bleed / SecurityAnti-raid mode, join-flood protection, anti-alt and new-account actionsPause automatic punishments for new joins.
Sledgehammer / VortexRaid lockdown, join-rate limits, account-age filters and automatic bansTurn off join punishments or switch them to alert-only.

Captcha.bot / GateKeeper / RestoreCordCaptcha gates, verification roles and kick-after-timeout rulesAllow joining without completing the gate, or pause the timeout kick.
Dyno / MEE6 / Carl-botAutomod, required roles, custom commands and scripted join actionsDisable only rules that punish new or role-less members.
Sapphire / YAGPDB / ProBotAccount-age checks, verification modules, role menus and custom automod rulesPause kick, ban or timeout actions triggered on member join.
Discord Safety SetupRaid Protection alerts, verification level and unusual-activity security actionsCheck for an active raid lockdown or action that restricts incoming members.
Custom botsMember-join listeners, required-role checks and automatic cleanup jobsPause the join handler or whitelist the delivery window.
Bot names alone are not a problem; their configuration is. If delivery is interrupted, open Server Settings → Audit Log and the bot's moderation logs. They identify which bot kicked, banned or timed out the joining accounts.
For example, Wick documents that Join Gate can timeout, kick or ban accounts based on age, avatar and other filters, while Join Raid may punish rapid joins. View Wick's documentation.

Create the correct invite

  1. 1Open the target Discord server and select Invite People.
  2. 2Open Edit invite link and set the expiration to Never.
  3. 3Set maximum uses to No limit.
  4. 4Paste the full link into checkout, for example discord.gg/example, and wait for the server to be verified.
Keep the invite active until every boost in your order has been delivered.

Protect your public invite

Custom Invite Link / Vanity URL

Level 3 perk

A vanity URL is the memorable discord.gg/yourname link used by many public servers. Discord calls it a Custom Invite Link. For most servers it is included with Level 3, which requires 14 Boosts.

How to claim or update it

  1. 1Maintain Level 3, then open Server Settings → Boost Perks on Discord Desktop.
  2. 2Scroll to Custom Invite Link and enter the code you want. Discord accepts up to 25 lowercase letters, numbers or dashes.
  3. 3Keep at least one text channel visible to @everyone. Otherwise the custom invite can appear invalid even while it is assigned to your server.
  4. 4Select Save Changes, then test the full link in a private browser window.

What happens if your Boosts drop?

ImmediatelyThe server falls below the Boost requirement. Restore the missing Boosts as soon as possible and avoid reallocating Level 3 Boosts to Additional Perks.
First 72 hoursDiscord gives normal server-level perks a 72-hour grace period. The Custom Invite Link has its own longer loss window described below.
Before day 30Bring the server back to the required Boost status to protect the existing custom invite. Do not wait until the final day.
After 30 daysDiscord says the Custom Invite Link is lost and becomes available to other eligible servers. It may then be claimed by someone else.
Thirty days is a loss window, not a reservation guarantee beyond it. Discord does not publish an exact claim timestamp or hold the code for its previous owner after that window.

Best way to keep a valuable vanity

  • Keep at least 14 Boosts allocated to Level 3. Boosts assigned to Server Tags, role styles or other Additional Perks do not also maintain Level 3.
  • Check the server's Server Boosts page regularly and keep a small buffer above the minimum when the vanity is business-critical.
  • Watch Discord's Boost-loss notices and recent Boost activity. Replace removed Boosts promptly instead of relying on the full grace period.
  • Keep a normal permanent invite as a private backup, but continue restoring Level 3 if protecting the public vanity is the priority.

If the vanity is already gone

Restore the required Boost status, return to Boost Perks → Custom Invite Link, and try to save the same code again. If Discord reports that it is taken, another eligible server may already own it; Discord Support does not provide a tool to check availability in advance.

Some eligible servers may see Custom Invite Link presented differently as Discord experiments with Boost perks. The options shown inside your server's Boosts page are the final source of truth. Read Discord's official Custom Invite Link guide.
Separate allocation

Additional Perks

Desktop only

Additional Perks do not come from your server level. They consume separate available Boosts and remain active only while those Boosts stay allocated.

Server Tag

A four-character tag and badge members can show across Discord.

3 Boosts

Enhanced Role Styles

Gradient and holographic styles for server roles.

3 Boosts

Server Tag Badge Packs

Extra badge collections. The base Server Tag must already be active.

2–5 Boosts

Game Server Hosting

A Discord-hosted game server option shown on eligible servers.

3+ Boosts
Some servers may also see experimental perks such as Server Themes or Larger File Uploads. Your Server Boosts page is the source of truth for what is available on your server.

How to enable an Additional Perk

  1. 1Open the server in Discord Desktop and select Server Boosts at the top of the channel list.
  2. 2Check the Available Boosts count in the upper-right. Boosts already assigned to a level are not available here.
  3. 3Find the feature under Additional Perks and select Enable Perk. For Server Tag Badge Packs, select View Packs.
  4. 4Confirm the allocation, then configure the feature from the panel Discord opens.
ServerServer BoostsAdditional PerksEnable Perk

Available Boosts, levels and reallocation

New Boosts are normally applied toward the next server level when they complete a threshold. That can leave you with enough total Boosts, but not enough available Boosts for an Additional Perk.

10 total BoostsLevel 2 (7) + one 3-Boost perk
14 total BoostsLevel 3 only, with no Boosts left available
17 total BoostsLevel 3 (14) + one 3-Boost perk
20 total BoostsLevel 3 (14) + two 3-Boost perks

Free Boosts from a level

  1. 1Open Server Boosts on Discord Desktop.
  2. 2Open the active level and select Disable Perk or the reallocation option shown by Discord.
  3. 3Review the level features you will give up, then confirm Disable.
  4. 4The released Boosts become available. Allocate them to the Additional Perk you want.
Reallocation is not extra free capacity: the same Boost cannot maintain a level and an Additional Perk simultaneously. Dropping below a level starts Discord's level-loss grace period. Removing Boosts from an Additional Perk disables that perk immediately.
If Server Tags lose their allocated Boosts, members lose access to the tag. Enhanced Role Styles revert to solid colors. Discord says a lost custom invite link may become available to another server after 30 days.

How warranty verification works

Connect the free Vanity Guard bot after ordering so we can verify that the delivered accounts remain in your server and continue boosting.

  • Bot connected: faster, account-level verification and automatic boost alerts.
  • Bot not connected: your claim is reviewed manually using the available delivery records.
  • The bot reads server identity, member presence and boost status only. It cannot read passwords, emails, tokens or private messages.

After payment

Delivery starts automatically after payment confirmation and normally finishes within a few minutes.

  1. 1Keep the invite active and do not re-enable anti-raid rules yet.
  2. 2Open Order Status to follow delivery progress.
  3. 3Confirm the server's boost level in Server Settings → Server Boost Status.
  4. 4Only after the order says Delivered, restore Apply to Join and any security modules you paused.

If delivery is stuck

  • Check that the invite still opens the correct server and has not expired.
  • Review your audit log and bot logs for automatically removed members.
  • Wait five minutes after payment confirmation before contacting support.
Do not create a second order for the same issue. Contact support with the original order ID.

Still need help?

Send support your order ID and the permanent server invite. Never post payment details publicly.
