FAQs

What happens if I cancel Discord Nitro?

You will lose all of the perks of the premium subscription at the end of your current billing cycle. That means you will continue to have Discord Nitro until the end of the period you have already paid for. Beyond that, when your subscription ends, you will not be billed unless you decide to restart your Discord Nitro subscription.

Can you get Discord Nitro for free?

Normally, no. Discord Nitro and Discord Nitro Classic are not free services and must be paid for.

However, Discord commonly pairs up with other companies, such as Epic Games, to offer small bonuses for free. These are promotional and sporadic, meaning they aren’t always available and are unpredictable. When these kinds of promotions appear, it’s always a good idea to try and take advantage of them while they’re available.

Is Discord Nitro worth it?

Discord Nitro perks include animated avatars, custom profile banners, custom Discord Tags, custom emojis, animated emojis, the ability to use emojis in other servers, custom stickers, two free Boosts, 30% off Boosts, higher screen share quality, larger upload sizes, and longer messages.

It’s up to you to decide whether Discord Nitro is worth paying for or not. However, if you’re an avid user, these perks regularly come in handy.
