Get More From Your Boosts With New Server Perks

Discord is expanding Server Boosts beyond linear level upgrades with two new perks that can be unlocked directly: Enhanced Role Styles and Server Tags. Each perk costs 3 Boosts and remains active while those Boosts are allocated, allowing servers to use extra community contributions for targeted customization without reaching a higher Boost Level.

Directly Unlockable Server Perks

• Servers can now spend Boosts either to:
  • Progress through existing Boost Levels and bundled benefits
  • Unlock specific perks independently
• Enhanced Role Styles and Server Tags each require 3 Boosts, or 6 Boosts total for both.
• No minimum server level is required.
• Administrators can enable perks from the Server Boost tab above the channel list:
  • Check available Boosts
  • Select a perk
  • Click Enable Perk
  • Use Configure to customize it
• Perks remain active as long as the required Boosts continue to be assigned.

Enhanced Role Styles

• Costs 3 Boosts.
• Adds animated, gradient, holographic, and other vibrant styles to server roles.
• Helps distinguish moderators, contributors, and other important roles.
• Once unlocked, the styles can be applied to any number of roles.
• Servers can use the feature selectively or apply colorful designs broadly.

Server Tags

• Costs 3 Boosts.
• Lets members represent a server across Discord with a tag of up to four characters and a pixel-style icon.
• Tags can appear:
  • Beside usernames in chats and member lists
  • On user profiles
• People outside the server can see a member’s tag and view a small server profile.
• If enabled by administrators, viewers may be able to apply to join the server directly through the tag.
• Suggested tag styles include game-related abbreviations such as “FPS,” “RPG,” or “PVP,” as well as personality-driven labels like “CUTE” or “LOUD.”

Discord’s new system gives servers more control over how they spend Boosts. Communities can retain their existing level-based benefits while using extra Boosts for distinctive role styling and broader server identity through tags.
