How to Upgrade Discord Accounts to Discord Nitro

Last Updated: July 5, 2024 Tested

Discord, a popular instant messaging and VoIP platform, offers users the option to 'upgrade' their basic Discord accounts to Discord Nitro. Nitro subscribers give users additional benefits on top of the core features, like animated avatars, global custom emojis, and larger file upload limits.

Steps

1

Log in to your Discord account. On either the Discord Web Application or any desktop applications, log in to your Discord account.
2

Access your account settings. Click on the cog icon next to the headphones and microphone icon to open up your Discord account settings. If you are on an Apple desktop or laptop, you can go Discord in the menu bar, and then Preferences to access user settings.

3

Click on the Discord Nitro tab. Navigate down to the 5th user option, Discord Nitro.
4

Select your payment type. Decide on purchasing a one-month subscription ($4.99 USD for one month) or a one-year subscription ($49.99 USD for twelve months with two free months). Click on the option to open the purchase menu.
5

Complete the payment details. You can purchase Discord Nitro using any credit card, or PayPal provided it has enough balance, is valid and you have the expiry date, CVN and zip code. Discord avatar (Wumpus) will be rolling along on his wheelie while you complete your details. When the payment goes through, he'll arrive at his destination!
Congratulations! You've now purchased a subscription to Discord Nitro.

If I purchase Nitro, will it send the owner of the card an email, send the email to the owner of the Discord account, or send no email at all?

It will not send an email when you buy it, but it will send you an email when it's close to expiring.
