Title: Discord Nitro with Bitcoin
Post by: OmegaStarScream on January 07, 2019, 11:01:51 AM
I was hoping I could find such a thing with Bitrefill but I didn't, I googled but that didn't give me much, except few results from discord forum where users are requesting the developers to accept bitcoin. Does anyone have an idea? My goal is to give it as a gift for friends and not buy it for my account.

I can't find it either. I search it on reddit but still nothing about this.

I don't think it's quite possible yet. I did some searching and found this thread from about a year ago on Reddi (https://old.reddit.com/r/discordapp/comments/5px5um/are_there_any_plans_to_let_users_buy_discord/)t with a response from two discord developers stating that they aren't currently looking into it because BTC's a niche payment method and it's not cost effective for them due to the cost to build it into the software or something of the sort. Your best option is still to use PayPal or a credit card to gift your friends a subscription to it. It's always possible to convert BTC to PP balance funds.

Haven't they just introduced Discord Nitro gifting? HypeSquad members were given free Discord Nitro gift on the 20th December so that they could test out this feature. Bitefill introduced Steam gifts after Steam removed BitPay payments.

Edit: @TryNinja I am aware of that. My point is that gifting has just been introduced and Bitrefill didn't have much time to introduce it.

But you can't buy/gift it with Bitcoin. Only Paypal and Credit Card.

Got it. That makes sense.

BTW, I just maxed my credit cards. Otherwise, I could buy it for you (OP).

I googled this and found bitcointalk on the first result, what a pleasure. Would any of you, gentlemen, want to buy me a nitro gift for 20 USD in bitcoin? I'm paying the mining fees.

I would like to try one month of the $9.99 plan.

Edit: Nevermind, I bought it.

What's the point of buying Discord nitro with Bitcoin,since you have PayPal,which is the best option for online purchases(and the worst if you are a seller)?I'm not a fan of PayPal,but they are great,if you are a buyer.
I never fully understood the concept of Discord Nitro.Selling something that can be offered for free,just for the sake of not having an Ad revenue based business model on your platform?
I mean,$10 per month for an avatar image,fancy emojis and server boosts?It seems kinda overpriced to me.
By the way,my Discord gets spammed by some weird crypto gambling bots,promoting a website called bitupmax.com(the website isn't active). Anyone having the same issue?

Because I cannot pay with paypal at the moment. Bitcoiners call it "Financial Freedom" and yes, it's true.

I never fully understood the concept of Discord Nitro.
Neither did I, despite some little things that are nice. I didn't say that I'll pay it every month, I just wanted to have it for 1 month and see how it looks like. I like the personalized profile picture and the bigger uploads.

Well, they have to keep that thing alive somehow. (and themselves)

^ Oh man... thank you. Can't believe I actually forgot about checking Coingate till I came across this thread, I actually really hate paying for Discord but got a couple of requests before to buy upgrades on behalf of clients and hated that I couldn't easily buy it.

Only slight problem is their classic price has a high markup (3 vs 5.23 euros!) so you might want to shop around for Classic. Regular Nitro's great though -- just slightly marked up by about 1.5%.

I can get you Nitro for the regular price (i.e Basic for ~€ 3,60), btw. ;)

I accept BTC, ETH, any stablecoin, or even altcoins if supported by major exchanges.

Sent you a PM for reg Nitro -- was holding off for a while now but would rather buy from a forum peep. I have a mental checklist of new things I've bought with BTC, so this will be a personal highlight of the week for me ;)
