Discordannounced the official opening of Server Subscriptionsto servers in the U.S. on December 1.
After testing different ways that Discord community leaders and creators can monetize on the platform over the last year, the brand has shared details on its pricing requirements and perks. Subscriptions can be set between $3 and $200, with server owners and community leaders being able to have a fair amount of creative freedom on what they can offer followers in exchange for a monthly fee.
Starting today, all eligible U.S. creators can make money directly from their Discord servers.
Create and customize subscription plans that offer unique roles, perks, and benefits to interested members of your community.
