Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Who can currently access the Shop and buy and use Avatar Decorations?

A: The Shop is available to all Discord users. If you are also a Nitro member, you will have special member pricing on eligible purchases within the Shop! 

Q: How do I get a discount on Avatar Decorations in the Shop?

A: Only Nitro members have access to special member pricing in the Shop. You can find more information about Nitro here.

Q: I already have an Avatar Decoration that is part of the Shop Bundle. Why can't I purchase the Shop Bundle to get the profile effect?

A: Shop Bundles offer a discounted price on two items from the same collection. However, these bundles are only available if you haven't purchased any of the items included. If you already own one or both items, the bundle will be marked as partially or fully owned, and you won't be able to purchase the remaining item(s) at a discounted rate. In this case, you'll need to buy the remaining item individually.

Q: Is localized pricing available for Avatar Decorations?

Q: I thought Avatar Decorations used to be free for Nitro members. Why do I have to buy them now?

A: Previously, Avatar Decorations would only be freely available for Nitro members to use for a limited time and then they would disappear, which would leave a lot of folks sad. A lot of you also told us our decorations needed more variety.

Now Avatar Decorations are designed to be yours to keep and use anytime when you buy them. We’ve also been working hard to make Avatar Decorations better than before, with even more charming and fun designs, higher quality animations and effects, and more styles to choose from.

As a friendly reminder, if you’re a Nitro member, you can collect the 3 bonus DISXCORE Avatar Decorations from the Shop! Discord users with Nitro trial subscriptions do not have access to DISXCORE profile effects.

A: No, Avatar Decorations are non-refundable. You can learn more about our Refund Policy here.

A: We don’t have specific details related to when new decorations become available, but our team is hard at work to make sure we continue to bring new and fun styles to your hands.
