How to pay for Discord Nitro
Discord Nitro gives you bigger file uploads, high-quality streaming, your own emoji on any server and boosts. If your local card doesn't work, subscribe with a Tegro virtual card — an international Visa/Mastercard funded with crypto.
How to get Nitro
- Issue a card and top it up from your balance.
- Open Discord in the browser or desktop app → User Settings → Nitro.
- Choose a plan (Nitro or Nitro Basic) and a term — monthly or yearly.
- Add the card: number, expiry, CVC and a billing address in Latin letters.
- Confirm 3D Secure in the Tegro Card app if needed.
Boosts and gifts
The same card pays for server boosts and Nitro gifts for friends. The saved payment method appears in Discord settings under billing — no need to re-enter the details.
Buying from your phone
In the iPhone app the purchase may go through the App Store, and then the card linked to your Apple ID is charged. You can add the Tegro card there too — see paying in the App Store. To pay Discord directly, subscribe in the browser.
- Keep a buffer on the card for renewal — Nitro renews automatically.
- The yearly plan costs less than paying monthly and removes the monthly charges.
- You can cancel any time in Discord settings — access stays until the end of the paid period.
Discord accepts international cards, but every payment is approved by the service itself. If a payment fails, see why a payment gets declined.
