Reward Your Play: Complete Quests. Earn Orbs. Get Sweet Stuff. (opens in new tab)
Discord has introduced Discord Orbs, a new virtual currency earned by completing specific Quests across both desktop and mobile platforms. These Orbs serve as a reward mechanism that allows users to accumulate a balance through platform engagement and redeem it for various digital goods. By integrating these rewards directly into the Discord Shop, the platform provides a clear path for users to earn premium features through active participation.
Earning Discord Orbs
- Users can acquire Orbs by participating in and successfully finishing designated Quests found on the platform’s Quest page.
- The currency is available to users on both the desktop client and mobile applications.
- The availability of Orb-earning opportunities varies based on the specific Quests currently active in a user’s region or account.
Redemption and Shop Integration
- Earned Orbs are stored in a "spherical stash" and can be spent exclusively within the Discord Shop.
- Rewards include Orb-themed profile items and cosmetic decorations to customize user presence.
- A notable high-value redemption option is the 3-Day Nitro credit, allowing users to access premium features for a limited time.
- The currency can also be applied toward many existing favorite items already available in the standard Shop rotation.
To begin collecting this new currency, users should navigate to their Quests page to identify which active challenges currently offer Orbs as a reward. This system offers a practical way for non-subscribers to test Nitro features or collect profile cosmetics through gameplay and platform activity.
