How to Purchase a Nitro Gift in Discord
Discord Nitro gifts can be purchased within direct messages (DMs), group chats, server channels, and the Nitro page.
Gifts purchased within a DM on desktop or browser will allow you to customize your gift by selecting a card design, adding a personal note, a soundboard effect, and emoji confetti. You will not be able to customize your gift with these personal touches within group chats and server channels.
1. To get started, open up the Discord app and head over to where you would like to send your gift.
2. While there, select the gift icon to the right of the textbox.
3. Once the Gift Nitro window appears, select the gift you would like to send and press Next when you’re ready to proceed.
Customizing your gift is currently only available within direct messages (DMs)
If your Discord account does not have a previously saved payment method, you will need to add your payment method details before proceeding.
4. Afterwards, you will be able to review your gift and select Buy Gift to complete your purchase.
If you have shared a gift within a group chat or server channel, anyone can claim it. If you would like to share the private gift link to a specific friend, send the link through a DM to the recipient.
Once a Nitro gift has been claimed by another user, the gift cannot be switched to another user account. Our support team is unable to issue a refund for a claimed Nitro gift. Our standard refund policy applies, but only for an unclaimed Nitro gift.
Note: Discord Nitro Basic will not be available for purchase through DMs, group chats, or server channels. To purchase a Discord Nitro Basic gift on desktop or browser, head over to the Nitro page by navigating to your direct messages and pressing the app icon in the upper left corner. You can also navigate to the Nitro page by heading into your User Settings > Nitro. On mobile, tap on your avatar to head into User Settings > Nitro Gifting.

Managing Your Nitro Gift
If you missed the shareable link for any reason, you can always access it at any time as long as the gift hasn’t been claimed already.
Head to User Settings > Gift Inventory you’ll see your unclaimed Nitro gift here. You’ll be able to revoke a Nitro gift link & generate a new one.
Please note, only unclaimed gifts will be listed here, any claimed gifts will no longer display in your inventory. If you are looking for your Account Credit, go to the Subscriptions tab in your User Settings.
Super important to note that once you share this link with another user, that user will be able to claim this gift of Nitro. When sharing a gift to someone else, we recommend sending it in a DM to ensure no one else can claim it!
Purchasing a Gift On Mobile
You can now customize your Nitro and Nitro Basic gift on iOS and Android devices in DMs, group chats, and channels!
1. To get started, head over to a DM, group chat, or channel.
2. Select the gifting [] icon located to the left of the text bar.
3. Then, choose a plan you would like to send. You can also customize your gift by selecting a gift card style.
4. If you are sending the gift through DMs, you can add a custom message and send the gift directly to the gift recipient once the purchase is complete.
Otherwise, a sharable link will be generated for you to share with others. You can also go to User Settings > Nitro Gifting and generate a new link if needed.
